Ed Rooney Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Of all the venomous creatures they have in Australian, the box jelly fish is the worst. In Liverpool, the equivalent would be some football supporters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I usually approach my sea snaps with a long lens. Port d'Andratx, Mallora, where the king kept his boat. A photo sandwich. The guy was in Hawaii. The landmark Public Market in Seattle. There’s something magical about the sea. In spite of nearly drowning while snorkeling in the Caribbean, (then saw a small shark while swimming to the boat) I was back in the water snorkeling the next morning. And here I am, land locked.

Avpics Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Living just a short walk from the seaside results in the search term returning over six thousand images, yet they're largely unimaginative news-leaning shots. I'll offer: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan Bell Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 (edited) Decided to enter just to give you all a laugh. When I think of the seaside it always conjours up people having fun or a relaxing time by the sea and that is how these images were selected.

Those feet are meant for hopping up rocky cliffs. They nest near the albatross and that protects their eggs from predators. Smart little characters but they always look annoyed.

Mr Standfast Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 My three. 1. Hottentot Fig on the Lizard Peninsula Cornwall 2. Family fun at Clevedon Marine Lake. (It was closed the day after 'cos of water quality issues...) 3. A traditional seaside Cafe Menu window. Oxford Corner Cafe in weston, now been closed for a couple of years. The variety of menu's show how they were desparately hanging on, I find the "chicken nuggets" hand written addition to the childrens menu to be poignant, the menu must have been sign written before chicken nuggets were "a thing". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
