There’s Still Magic at Cape May Point

Nikon photos 051

Recently I spent a week in Cape May Point, New Jersey hoping to find the magic that I wrote about last year in Magical Moments. Although this trip with my daughter was just as fun and relaxing, I still hadn’t experienced that deep sense of inner peace and connection with “all there is” that I had found there previously…until the night before we left.

I love when the sun or moon sparkles on the water. It speaks to the innermost part of me in ways I can’t describe. Frolicking dolphins are a sure sign that there’s magic in the air. This is when it began for me, about an hour before sunset on Sunset Beach.

 I looked at the water through the lens of my camera and the magic began (at least for me).

It’s exciting to catch a wave crashing on the shore.

Just before I left I had to capture this from the parking lot.

I hope you enjoyed sharing my special memories of Sunset Beach! Have you been to a beach lately? Any special moments you’d like to share?

 

Photo Friday – Lake Maggiore

This Friday’s photo is of Lake Maggiore near Ascona, Switzerland. It was taken from a ferry that sails down the lake from Locarno, Switzerland several miles into Italy.

So many shades of blue, and yes, the water really was that color.
