Sutton on Sea, Lincolnshire,

Sutton on Sea, that's where this heart was etched into the sand on what turned out to be a scorching day at the Seaside.
Every week the tractors come onto the beach here and rake the sand removing buried treasures and lost belongings that many a family have walked away from.

As you will see from the photo's below, the sky was a heavenly blue that you long for in foreign holiday brouchers, the beach was mostly deserted and undisturbed, except for the sound of the sea gently caressing the sand and the distant sound of excited children. A whole tranquil day. Bliss

I long to be near the sea, it's like a gently pulling magnet on my soul, I feel rested when I'm near the sea, calm and at home. I love the smell of the sea breeze, the way the breeze skips over your skin dusting it with a golden haze. There's nothing more relaxing than feeling the waves gentling curling around your feet, its healing power for both body and soul given unconditionally.
One day the sea will be my neighbour, growing old together, sharing our moods and joys on a daily basis as time just rolls on by but an old friendship re-kindled from when I was young, as though we had never been apart. x



Sometimes.



Sometimes, just sometimes, you have to look at things from a different angle. Sometimes its because someone else has pointed something out to you and sometimes its because you just happen to stumble upon something completely by mistake.

Looking at life from a different angle can be really tricky, we all get set in our ways and comfortable is a place that we all love to be, but it can be mundane and suffocating too, its like you need fresh air, you need to get out!

That's how I'm feeling at the moment, like I'm being squeezed into a size 14 dress when in reality I'm a unflattering size 22. Its going to be a struggle and something has to give!!

Sometimes when your looking for new direction, any direction is good, as long as its not backwards.

So, with all of this in mind, I have listened to the many and it is so that I take little steps to find pastures new.


Photography is something that I absolutely love, everywhere I go I see something that I just want to point my camera at, everyday the same thing can be different. Having decided that I'm going to change direction I thought the first place to start was with my blog...to put some of my photographs on here... its a beginning point.
