A very simple photo , but the simplicity of the ocean and coastlines are my happy place. Just your basic sea, sky, sand.

 

In solitude, I find solace by the sea,

Where peace whispers its tranquil melody.

The ocean's embrace, a sanctuary deep,

Where worries fade and souls, sweet release.

 

Hope everyone is having a great week.

Autumn at Grünsee on the small Fanesalpe. For a short time the sun came out between the clouds, so that the larches began to shine.

Another stunning building in the heart of Wells, Somerset . Wells Cathedral.

Wells Cathedral is an Anglican cathedral in Wells, Somerset, England, dedicated to St Andrew the Apostle. It is the seat of the Bishop of Bath and Wells, whose cathedra it holds as mother church of the Diocese of Bath and Wells.

Built as a Roman Catholic cathedral from around 1175 to replace an earlier church on the site since 705, it became an Anglican cathedral when King Henry VIII split from Rome. It is moderately sized for an English cathedral. Its broad west front and large central tower are dominant features. It has been called "unquestionably one of the most beautiful" and "most poetic" of English cathedrals.

I wish I had a chance to take a photo of this magnificent structure at blue hour, with the night-time illuminations on, but in the summer months it becomes dark only at around 10pm, so it was just too much to ask of my travel companions to hang around as it took us over an hour to get there.
