Give ‘em the bird | A walk on the pier

Seeing that it was my Mum’s birthday today, we made an impromptu trip to the beach. She’s always looking for an excuse to go to the coast and heck, who isn’t?

So off we went to chase the sun and explore one of our favorite coast towns.

First stop was the pier where I met my new friend George;

Mind you, my camera has a 35mm lens with no zoom.. so George was very up close and personal...

He looked like he was longing for a chat, so I indulged him. We discussed the weather, politics, the bear market and how terrifying it is that some grown adults act like infants most of the time...

I kept trying to get him to move his head a bit as the harsh sun was casting shadows, but he seemed preoccupied. Then just like that, he was done...

I can’t image what he thought he was going to get out of the conversation...

oh, right.. Did I mention chowder was involved?

Seriously I don’t know anything that is better than chowder on the pier... it’s where we started our beach trip and of course allowed us to meet our friend George.

Then we took a walk around the pier itself and I did try to snap a few more photos, but the light of midday was giving me a bit of trouble.

This scene stopped me in my tracks though, just such vibrant colors and that lovely pop of red...

Red has always drawn me in in photographs and I kept spotting it while on our walk...

The view was stunning, and the sound of the waves crashing on the surf is something I just can never get sick of.

As we made our way back up the pier I noticed Geroge had come to bid us farewell...

I hope you enjoyed a few pictures from my day, as well as my sad attempt at humor 😜❤️

Much Love,
