Description
A feeling of solitude. I liked the muted colours and the blurring of land sea & sky with the person walking their dog in splendid isolation enjoying the vast space surrounding them. The beach makes you feel quite insignificant in the whole scheme of things.
Taken on North Devon's huge Saunton Sands beach (so big the RAF could land a Hercules transport plane on it & Robbie Williams filmed one of his music videos here).

Beautiful seascape/landscape capture Richard! Wonderful mood of peace and the vastness so beautifully emphasized by the lone figure and dog. l/f

Oh I wish I was there! What a great seascape. Endless miles of sand, sea and shore to enjoy, like this person and their dog. Your description added so much to my enjoyment of your work!
Richard Brookes replied:
Thank you for your kind comments Karen. They're much appreciated. I'm really pleased you like it. The beach does seem endless when you're on it. It is backed by the largest sand dunes in the UK (also the highest in Europe I believe) called Braunton Burrows and they are impressive too. UNESCO has designated the area part of the North Devon Biosphere Reserve.
