For #MeerMittwoch from our visit there last month this is the view from the pier at Puntarenas, Costa Rica looking along the beach. The peaceful Pacific is still nevertheless churning up the sand while the locals enjoy a little bit of respite from the high heat and humidity.

It's been too long since I visited the Oregon coast, but I'm sure it will be waiting for me, on that magical section of Route 101 that has some of the (many, *many*!) best views of a sunset out world has to offer...this "Sentinel of the Sea".

Captured near Gold Beach, July 2025.

"Black Sand, Kiss Me Home". Iceland? Nope! California...but a part of the state so remote they call it "The Lost Coast", for the main roads don't go there. Thinking of the light of the sun, the unique sound of that surf, the spectacular beauty of the landscape...I have to go back. Some day...

What must Malibu have looked like when it was still wild? Maybe a lot like this shot. Oh, it's lusher and more formidable, the light hits different that far north, but at Shelter Cove's Black Sands Beach, you can still see it..."True California", taken by yours truly last summer.
