Today has been a day of play for me. One of the things I played with was my phone first thing this morning. It was a rough high tide, and I captured a photo of the water splashing over the sea wall and spraying all over the place. I tried some special effects, but am not too happy with them. I need more practice, but at least I caught the spray.

Taking picture of nature is more than fun. For me it just like valuing the great creation of God.

Then you’ll never see me again. Once I get started on something, I’m addicted. I will just play around when I’m not busy.

No one was on the water today except one jerk and a sightseeing yacht. Dramamine day for sure!

Whoa, I am totally Midwestern and at first glance it looked like a field of snow in your photo. HA HA! Certainly not. The photo looks good though, even if I am seeing snow. lol.

@DianneN It’s an easy fix to protect you from rising sea levels. Just extend the height of the sea wall!
