New day dawns over gently rolling sea. Ebbing tide sweeps across glistening shore, eddying and whirling as water retreats beneath rippling waves. Striated sand, scattered with swirling coils of worm-casts, is sparsely strewn with yellowing strands of kelp and wrack. Watery sunlight slowly shortens shadows thrown by looming headland. Far above, smudges of cloud paint shimmering blue sky with wispy white streaks. Wheeling sea birds soar hungrily, seeking prey stranded in shallows by receding tide.

Burgeoning sunrise

Glinting iridescent sand

Freshly washed new day
