  1. As we head into the final weekend of August with many families preparing for youngsters heading 'back-to-school', I think this year's summer break will live long in the memory.
    In short, it's been a belter!
    Captured this view of Cliffe Park, on Sunderland's coast in NE England at the beginning of the week, looking north towards Whitburn Bay and Souter Point beyond.
    For anyone not local, the lighthouse in this picture was built in 1856 by Thomas Meik, the River Wear Commissioners' Engineer, and originally was located on the Old South Pier at the mouth of the River Wear.
    It became redundant in later years and was relocated to its present position as a reminder of the city's maritime heritage, not to mention becoming an iconic seafront landmark.

  2. RE: social.vivaldi.net/@Vibracobra

    Do you think that too big housing too near to the sea is a phenomenon of the last 50 yrs? It started earlier ...

  3. Roker's Cat & Dog Steps Beach on Sunderland's seafront looking just stunning in the bright warm sunshine of late August.
    Must admit, that on a day like this (Monday morning), this is probably one of my favourite views along our lovely stretch of coast.
    On an in-coming tide, love seeing the sunlight sparkling on the sea, reflecting the clear blue skies and contrasting against the golden sandy beach below.

  4. Fishing Boats, Calm Sea, Claude Monet

    I have avoided posting Monet and Van Gogh because it's like listening to The Beatles or Bob Marley or something. Everyone likes this because it's good and what else is there that's good?

    This is one I didn't recognize immediately as Monet, he was very productive, why don't you take a day off, Claude? 😆

    I've seen some pieces that I thought weren't as strong as others but it seems like he really "gets it", most of his art has a quality that feels right, that seems like he captured something worth capturing, and that he captured the right parts about it.

    If I had time to get good at painting (maybe someday), I don't think I would paint in this genre but I enjoy it. I think I have things to express, he doesn't seem to be trying to express anything other than maybe appreciation for the everyday beauty of the world? Good job Monet. Break time, sheesh. Save some paint for the rest of us.😁

  6. 🇫🇷 Un voilier quitte le port d'Oostende, la structure jaune à droite en second plan est une station d'observation hydrographique de la mer. Dans le fond à l'horizon, on peut apercevoir un porte-containers et le parc éolien en construction.

    Passez une bonne journée! 👋

    🇬🇧 A sailboat leaves the port of Oostende, the yellow structure on the right is an hydrographic sea observation station. In the background on the horizon, we can see a container ship and the wind farm under construction.

    Have a nice day! 👋

  7. Earlier today, my first good glimpse of the ocean in many years. I was giddy.

    And yes, I've already dipped my feet in it.
