Ice "diamonds" glistening on the black beach...
The Diamond beach is by Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon in southeast Iceland.
The lagoon belongs to the Vatnajökull glacier national park. The glacier's name is Breiðamerkurjökull glacier, and huge blocks of ice (more than 1000-year-old) are continually breaking from it and large chunks of iceberg float in the lagoon.

Gleich neben der berühmten Jökulsarlon-Gletscherlagune findet sich der schwarze Vulkansandstrand, wo die Eisberge aus der Lagune an Land treiben und einen magischen Ort erschaffen. Die blauen, schwarzen, weißen und durchsichtigen Eisberge liegen am Strand und schmelzen langsam. Ein faszinierender Ort....
Die Eisberge kommen direkt aus einem Gletscher, dem Breidamerkurjokull, ein Ausläufer von Europas größtem Gletscher Vatnajökull.
Der Gletschersee diente bereits als Schauplatz für bekannte Filmproduktionen wie James Bond-Stirb an einem anderen Tag, James Bond 007-Im Angesicht des Todes, Tomb Raider, Beowulf & Grendel und Batman Begins.

Beaches of the Central Coast #23 of #49
Thanks for your visit and to everyone who takes the time to comment. They are all greatly appreciated.
A mate & I vowed to explore all 49 beaches nestled along our little stretch of coastline this year. While I've tested the water at a fair wack of them over the years, I'm sure there are still some hidden gems awaiting discovery. So, 2024 is a fresh start to visiting them all. And maybe another couple of dozen or so just to the North ;) I have a spreadsheet ready to go to record important details, like when, how hard it was to get to, difficulty, and was there a pub nearby for a nice counter lunch afterwards ;)
I may have become a bit impatient today and headed off by myself. I was caught between workouts and the sky was filling with some nice-looking clouds, so I seized the opportunity to explore Forresters Beach, a virgin beach for me. And only 20 minutes from home! I was expecting a "busy" beach but was pleasantly surprised by its tranquility and relative emptiness. It is an unpatrolled beach with rocky formations framing each end. I opted for the southern end. As luck would have it, it was low tide, giving me some cool rock shelves to wander around clicking the shutter like my finger had a mind of its own.
As I walked along, I encountered some exciting (to me anyway) sights. I'll try and make it sound more exciting ;) - a tapestry of seaweed sprawled across the sands, clusters of vibrant blue bottles offering me their sting, and pockets of dune flowers adding a pop of color to the coastal landscape. Forresters Beach, I'll be back! The northern end awaits, as does a sunrise. Without a 1-hour time limit.
PS - Not going to visit them in order, that would be a bit too organised for me ;)

The first stop on our Florida trip was Navarre Beach, on the Panhandle near Pensacola. My favorite place was the Gulf Islands National Seashore which stretches across several locations. One morning I walked between a mile and a mile and a half and saw one person. The beautiful white sand paired so well with the high surf creating wonderful pastel colors.
Here, a Wilson's plover struts along in the sand.
My sincere thanks to all who spend the time to view, like or comment on my photos. It is much appreciated!

trip to the beach this evening in the campervan.
Not a bad photo considering it was taken on my phone.
Dreaming of the Lighthouse Beach in the Bahamas tonight. Been looking back through my hundreds of photos of this beach. The white sand, lack of people, color of water, and the reefs teeming with fish make this an ideal place to visit.
Taken on Calshot Beach, Hampshire, England, this pebble beach lies on the Solent, west of Southampton Water's Estuary Mouth. It also falls within the New Forest National Park.
Calshot is famous for Calshot Castle, the destination of the first RAF flying boats that flew in England in the 1930s. It was also in the 1930s that it was used as the base for the RAF High Speed Flight, a unit of the RAF that was set up to support the challenge for the Schnieder Trophy.
A cloudy and damp morning put a stop to any spectacular sunrise but a break in the clouds just off to the east gave the beach huts a wonderful glow while the clouds still shadowed the beach itself.
Taken with a tripod and a relatively slow shutter, very little has been tweaked from the original shot.
