On days like today, I feel like the luckiest woman in the world.
It’s all about ‘time well spent,’ and I couldn’t have asked for more than to be at the ocean with son, Harry, and Puppy Stan at sundown.
Nature was out in all her glory:
Buoyancy
and the the colours were ever-changing.
Light and Half Light
The bond between man and dog never fails to warm my heart:
Harry and Stan
As I let my gaze wander
Light of Ireland ~ Green, White and Gold
I hear a voice calling
My Boy on the Glowing Cliffs
as the tints change yet again …
Burning Embers of the Day

These are all so beautiful..I love the one of your son and dog on the beach…a keeper for sure..It’s surprising to see so many facets of the sea…
It was sunny all morning and so far in the afternoon but dark clouds are looming and chasing the sun away. We are suppose to get rain up until February 2
What lovely photographs and how full of love and inspirtion you must have felt after the walk. It is quite warm here and humid and stroms are building up in the west. I have completed my chores in the garden, had lunch and now have rejoined the ‘real world’. So, as my first email opened was your blog post…I’d say I’m off to a great start of my working day:):)
Hi Andrea, it seemed like the day and night didn’t know what to do with themselves. There was sun, moon, rainbow, clouds, foamy seas, golden sands, dark clouds ….. you name it!

Hi Joni, must say I love that pic as well.
I needed that scenery. It has been raining almost 7 consecutive days in a row. A ray of sunshine to see all your gorgeous photos.
How revolting to have that much rain. Glad to be able to add some colour to your day!

Well, that’s good that you got a glimpse of the sun. Hopefully, the forecast is wrong.
It is clouding over now. The sun is gone but at least we did see it. This is our rainy month then the rains kind of subsides with more sunny days.
At least you know that the sun is waiting around the corner.
🙂
Golden daze golden haze!
Willow, you sum it up so well!
Well there it is for us to see!
LOL!
Such gorgeous colours – thanks for sharing, Jean.
My pleasure entirely, Frances.
So relaxing & beautiful. Love it when you share these sweet moments with us. Just showed this to my hubby & my sweet mutt 💜
What a heartwarming comment, Lennon. Thanks!
Such beautiful shots, Jean.
Thanks Elen. This only conveys a fraction of how it was. There was even a rainbow in the middle of it all.
Wow those hills are an amazing colour.
Tric, we’re not talking Copper Coast for nothing here in Co. Waterford!

It was heaven out there, Robin.
This took my breath away, Jean! The colours you manage to get on your camera are just stunning. The words ain’t half bad either 😉
Oh I like taking people’s breath away so long as it’s positive. Thanks a mill for writing, Tara. The colours around here are often beyond stunning.
Simply gorgeous!
Thanks so much, Caoimhe.
That light is amazing Jean.

As the song says .. If that’s not heaven it’ll have to do until the real thing comes along! Regards Thom.
What a great line, Thom. Thanks for sharing it.
Wasn’t the light just magical out there? Beautiful photos
Isn’t it always lovely out there? I love her every mood!
