Secret Bay

Well, the waves certainly weren't very exciting on this day but I thought they looked very serene.  I was surprised to see a surfer walking out to sea across the rocks with his board (a little farther down from here....lots and lots of rocks).  The waves didn't look like they would be very much fun to surf but I guess this guy was determined.  The combination of rocks and flat surf made surfing seem like a bad idea to me.

  2. And this is why it is called "Pacific," - for the peace. Beautiful job and I love the green rolling up in the wee bit o' surf.

    Thank you Sherry. You've taught me something today. I never realized that Pacific meant peace.

  8. Nancy, I am loving your water scenes. I have been trying to do some but haven't been able to capture waves as well as you do.

  9. Thank you Leslie. I think it's much easier with oils than watercolors. I'm going to try doing them in watercolor this week so I'll let you know.
