Those Happy Golden Days of Summer

Sand along the southern New Jersey shore is called sugar sand because it is a shade of pale beige or white and very fine. But as the sun falls lower in the sky, the sand takes on a more golden hue.
Here is this weeks entry for Friday Photos and Skywatch Friday.

Puppy tracks along the bay! The sun is getting lower and the sand is changing color.

As the sun nears the horizon, gold and pink become intense. You can feel the hot spots from the suns rays as they travel across the water.

 

"Live in the sunshine, swim the sea, drink the wild air."

Ralph Waldo Emerson
