A good while ago I shared a very simple image of pebbles on a beach in Clew Bay, County Mayo (see Pebbles on the Beach). I thought I should return to Mayo and offer you an image of Croagh Patrick with the clear water of Clew Bay in the foreground.

Not the best of weather days, but just wait a bit and there is bound to be a change.
it looks like a piece of Heaven to me…no matter the weather

Looks a wonderful place to breathe in the fresh air and sit looking for a pebble to skim through the still waters MM .
Beautiful stillness here in the scene you’ve captured with the distant Crag and the time washed pebbles .

There is something about pebbles and water that so attracts us, isn’t there. There is a woman in Ontario whose photography I truly enjoy. She lives near Lake Huron, another place where pebbles abound,

Ah, the gReat Lakes, always a popular question around the breakfast table when I was a nipper. For me water holds so much for the photographer, movement, reflections, patterns, clarity, droplets of freshness…….
