Mediterranean Sea in the winter



This is my friend Sheelah from Louisville on the beach of Palavas-les-Flots, one of the seaside resorts where "Montpelliérains" rush as soon as the sun shines enough for them to get their suntan back asap!

When I took this photo, during the winter, Sheelah had just recovered from a very serious illness. She is fine now. This is one of my favorite photos.

  1. j'aime bien celle aussi avec chantelle ;o))
    Content de voir que ton amie va mieux grace au temps de Palavas-les-Flots. (c'est vrai que la mer, cela fait du bien, l'air redonne de la force) Mais petite question, elle cherche quoi ton amie ? des coquillages ?

  2. Les bains de pieds en hiver éradiquent toute maladie

  3. Fabulous sea and obviously a good friend. What more can one ask. Love the photo too. Love the energy in it and that your friend is obviuosly having such a good time hunting (or picking up) whatever on the beach.

  4. Yep... we also have waves like that here, sometimes even bigger.
    But always nice to have a walk on the beach.
    Glad for your friend.

  6. Oh Marie, it would be a favorite of mine too. Especially when you can have that seascape, and a friend in the picture too. The fence really adds. Great shot!!

    Hope you are doing OK. Love and Hugs.

  10. Tant mieux si ton amie va bien maintenant. Je n'ay viendrais pas sur cette oplage en ce moment et pourtant j'aime bien la Méditerranée. Aujourd'hui il fait bon se baigner chez Alice. Tiens ! Vivement l'été !

  11. I'm so happy that she's better now. I don't like to hear about serious illnesses.



    I would certainly appreciate your posting a condolence message in my blogs today for the wife of a good blogger friend...

  12. I agree with Bergson. The ocean brings peace and refreshes the soul. I has a wonderful calming effect; even when one wears only one shoe !
    The shells and stones that one gathers become a reminder of our relationship with Nature and possibly He who blessed us all with its beauty.

  13. Je vais décevoir beaucoup de monde, mais que c'est triste la mer en hiver! Quand j'habitais Bormes les Mimosas, j'avais le cafard, et l'été je fuyais tout ce monde!

  14. Charming picture! I was trying to decide if she was beachcombing (ah how fun!) or doing martial arts or exercises. In any case, a lovely shot.

  15. Mary, Sheelah was looking for shells and pebbles......

    Lyliane, moi c'est en hiver que je le préfère la mer.

    Thank you for your comments...
