Something for the Weekend - Part 179 - Life's a beach!

We had a lot of fun with our end of year challenge in the snow. So, for our first challenge in 2023, I thought we might exchange the cold snow for warmer sand and head for the beach. I snapped this particular beach, at Sangobeg on the North coast of Scotland, a few years ago. It is a lovely place, even if the temperature is a bit lower than the Caribbean. The question is - what can you make with this empty scene?

 

The “rules”:

* Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright etc

* There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off, or bring a bit of humour and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!

* The starter image is made available for you to use in this forum challenge only.

I like that James. More positive and uplifting than some of your other darker images. Befitting for the new year.

It looks a nice place to relax S_Gans 🙂

I had to look that nice castle up, it is Lichtenstein according to the photographer.

Ah Sangobeg, a lovely part of Scotland, not so far from me. Yes, it looks a bit Caribbean -

just needs the addition of a "holiday tree" as my grandson calls them.

Also one of my favourite jokes

Best regards, Euan.

As you'll know Euan, those 'holiday trees' grow quite nicely down in Inverewe on the West coast 🙂

Looks like Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, and Roosevelt decided take a vacay to the beach?
