Shadow Shot Sunday 2 - Sentimental seashore shadows
Shadow Shot Sunday 2 returns near the official end of the heat and humidity of the northern Summer (and the lovely Patti is happy about that :) and as I am in the midst of scanning the family history over the eons, I like this as last look at the beach as Autumn lurks nearby. The year is 1965, the ebbing high tide of the Atlantic Ocean and the great New Jersey shore. The subject here is a cousin at age one who is being introduced to the surf with her mom, and the look of the child is one of a joy of discovery...the soft sand and salty surf are a revelation to the little one who loves the new sensation...who wouldn't at any age?

Dear Ralph .. what can I possibly say that isn't expressed by this precious little imp ? She has it all written on her face and it is so totally delightful to see .. thank you!

famous last words of a parent at the waters edge...don't get wet...to late! water is a wondrous thing at any age. happy weekend Ralph!!
sweet face inviting all of us to enjoy the water!
This is so sweet and so full of life. It could be any of us or our siblings in 1965. I love the way the surf paints a line across the scene.
So joyful and sweet. Beautiful memory you bring to life once again :)
What a cute youngster!
so warm and sweet...:)
Hey happy young guy, nice to meet you!
Your suit looks cool on you...
Here in Helsinki this morning is the first day you can feel autumn - cloudy, windy - yesterday it was still warm and sunny.
It's difficult for me to say bye to summer...I'm not an autumn/winter person.
But it's good to have lots of summer photos in store! :)
Have a good week ahead!
That is truly a classic and timeless image! I love the outfit your cousin is wearing too. The image evokes a lot of reminiscing, no doubt!
