Message in the Sand.

Lovely beach scene Rosa.

Thank you Jaap.

Schitterende opname en pip,Rosa.
Ik ben erg nieuwsgierig naar de boodschap.........
hartelijke groeten
Frans.

I think it was 'Sophie was here today' :)
Thank you for your kind comment.
Have a lovely week.
Rosa.

Isn't the weather amazing for this time of year..............it's great to see so many people out and about on the beaches, especially the kids. A charming pair of images Rosa.

It really is Keith! We were in the grips of the beast from the east last year around this time!
Thank you for your kind comments.

Two lovely photo's Rosa.... and how Sophie has grown! .... John.

She is getting very tall John....tall parents! Pleased you like these two shots.
Best regards, Rosa.

Very nice, Rosa !

Thank you Ulrich.

Your title makes me think of an old English or American song which has about the same title... Can you remember it ? There is a so long time that one of my tapefriends introduced me to it ... 30 or 40 years ago !
Two very nice pictures, Rosalyn.

Would that be Message in a Bottle Christiane? Betty gave me a link to that song :)
Thank you for your kind comments on these pictures.

No, Rosalyn, much older than that, I guess. And I think that it was talking about writting in the sand too...
If ever it comes back to me, I will tell you (:o))

:-))

O U I !!! Y E S !!!
You found it, Rosalyn ! (:o)))) THANK YOU SO MUCH !
Such good remembrances to me ....
Have a lovely week end, my dear friend.

Aw he was a great singer and lovely man Christiane.
We got there eventually ;-))

Très belles photos. Nicole.

Merci beaucoup Nicole.

I can remember the song, Rosa.

It went like this:

"On a day like today
We pass the time away
Writing love letters in the sand"

I have it on an LP by Bill Haley and the Comets. Before your time, I'm sure.

Cheers,

Joe

Ah yes, I remember it well......now there's another song!
Before your time too Joe :)

Cheers, Rosa.

Over here, that song , Joe, was popular and was done by Pat Boone, a popular male vocalist !!!
and ROSA I always like to see your shots of Sophie. These 2 are quite special.

regards to both, Sarah

I remember Pat Boone Sarah.
Thank you for your lovely comments on these shots :)

I thought that was sung by Pat Boone. ;-)))

I agree with you about Pat Boone, Sarah. :-))

:)))) AH Yes, he had so many great hits. He was a favorite of mine...! :)

I can remember Pat Boone signing that song. I think Patsy Cline sang it too.

Not many people about to read the message, did she finish it without overbalancing and sitting on the wet sand ? Another glorious day after a cold start, felt obliged to attack the weeds again :((

She did finish it Peter but I expect the tide took it away soon after :)
A glorious day again today Peter....those weeds need tackling!

I ALWAYS WRITE IN THE SAND !!

It's a given Pam :))

Yes....ik zag Sophy ook HIER

Ha ha ;-))

So well composed. Reminds me of my youth. Although in my old age I sometimes make patterns and designs from shells, pebbles and other beach detritus.

It's so temping Jean....I do that too :))

Most beautiful

Thank you Annemarie.

Congratulations with this beautiful foro, Rosa, very nice and with the beautiful weather to be repeated...

Thank you for your very kind comments Sonia.
I could get used to this winter weather ;-))

La mer finit toujours par effacer les messages tracés dans le sable ...

It does indeed Pat ;-)

Two lovely shots of Sophie Rosa, you must be very proud of her.

Thank you Jeff. She's a lovely girl and I am very proud of her :)

für wen?

Anyone who cares to read it :)
I think the tide came in very quickly though.

Ohhhhh, I was hoping to see what she wrote! *cries mournfully*

But that being said, an AWESOME SHOT!! I just love this candid image of this girl in her Moment. Wonderful. The inset is fantastic too. You really got the feeling of the story so well in your images. Except *cries*...what did she write?! :D

I think it was something simple Janet, like Sophie was here ;-)) Nothing too profound :)
I am pleased you like the two pictures. She is very photogenic and is great fun to take out.

Belle composiion

Thank you Dan.

Schade....!

How nice is to see your Sophie again, Rosa! She's tall for her age and so lovely!
Writing in the sand...I still do it!! ;-) It's a delightful scene with a nice view in the background.

Aw thank you Adele. Her dad is 198cm tall and my daughter is 175cms, so no wonder she is tall....up to my nose already! It is very tempting for us all to write in the sand still :)) I don't usually go on the sand in summer as it is so fine and dry....have to protect the lens ;-))

PS. I think I got those measurements wrong so I'll trust that you can convert better ;-)) My daughter is 5ft 8ins and son-in-law 6ft 5ins.

...und mit der nächsten Flut sind die Schwüre und Beteuerungen versandet, Rosa.
Sehr schöne Szene.
Freundliche Grüße und einen schönen Abend
Erich

Quite so Erich! Thank you for your kind comments.
Best wishes,
Rosa.

Hi Rosa,

A super shot of Sophie.. Unfortunately I could not decipher the message, but I don't think "Sophie was here!" is quite right..... The word lengths don't match, says he hoping to find out....!!

Big star from me!!

Best Wishes
Peter

Hi Peter,

She had only written Sophie at the time I took this photo :) Thank you for your lovely comments and big star.

All the best,
Rosa.

You and Sophie had fun, your photos make me want to join you! Wet sand is a tempting surface to write on, as are dusty cars or snow.

Ha ha, yes I have seen many a rude message on dirty cars Gudrun! We did have great fun in Weymouth. She's a real chatterbox! Thank you for your kind comments.

Hi Rosa !
such a pleasure in admiring again your gallery ! I was off for such a long time, being away.
Immediately I was struck by this so charming image(images) which remind me , of course!, of my youth and of so many songs 'soundtracking' our love of leaving messages on the sand.
Never done on the dirty cars!! :-)I mean.... for a sense of guilty! my car is sometimes pretty dirty ! :-D)
All the best to you Rosa.Bea
