    I actually love going to the seaside in this sort of weather

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings January 12, 2023 / 15:16

      That’s the beauty of the sea, it takes so many forms from dramatic to peaceful.

      • sweeterthannothing's avatar sweeterthannothing January 13, 2023 / 09:17

        Either way I find it calming, I wouldn’t like to be out at sea when it’s being dramatic though!

    Lovely pics.

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings January 12, 2023 / 15:32

      Thanks, Sadje, I admit I was happy to get back indoors!

      • Sadje's avatar Sadje January 12, 2023 / 15:37

        I can imagine. 🥶

    Excellent! I am a water person and would be very unhappy living in a land-locked location. These photos show the essence of the free spirit of water people everywhere. Wild and free! ♓️

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings January 12, 2023 / 15:34

      Me too Nancy, I can’t imagine life without it close at hand. As you say, wild and free!

    It’s freezing here too, and all fogged out. Stay warm and stay off the ocean for a while, Keith. Though I could sit all day gazing at the cold, crashing waves.

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings January 12, 2023 / 15:38

      I’ve only ever been to your part of the world in the Summer, so I can’t imagine it being cold and foggy! The waves are wild again today, so I’m keeping clear!

      • Natasha's avatar Natasha January 12, 2023 / 16:41

        Good idea.

        Oh they are predicting a minus 4 in the coming days around here in North India. 🥶❄️☃️☕️

      • Natasha's avatar Natasha January 13, 2023 / 19:56

        Tell me about it! Brrrrr!
        But the DH and I managed to get away to the kiddies boarding school for the weekend and it’s a bit nippy yet comfortably pleasant here.
        But will be getting back to the freezing weather by Sunday night!❄️

        How are the waves now?
        Can’t wait to have a home by the sea some day. Universe are you listening ?🥹🌟✨🌊🐬🐳⚓️

    Such power harnessed in those images, Keith! 💞

  8. Suzette Benjamin's avatar Suzette Benjamin January 10, 2023 / 14:16

    Oh! Dramatic ocean images. Right, you are not ideal for close-up ocean encounters! Great photos, Keith.

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings January 12, 2023 / 16:06

      That was quite close enough! There are a lot of pebbles in those waves too, and they can be quite painful when they fly through the air!

      • Suzette Benjamin's avatar Suzette Benjamin January 12, 2023 / 16:09

        Sounds perilous! Stay safe.

    HI Keith – great photos … and it’s a very high tide at the moment … it has certainly been rough, and windy – cheers Hilary

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings January 12, 2023 / 16:07

      It’s unrelenting here too Hilary! Keep well clear!

    I would love to see this from a distance. Beautiful shots.

    Thank you for hosting the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.

    Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday and rest of the week, Keith. 🙂

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings January 12, 2023 / 16:16

      It is, then another day it’s still as a mill pool.

  11. Patricia's avatar Patricia January 11, 2023 / 04:22

    Wow! Wonderful waves to watch…from a distance. Great pictures.

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings January 12, 2023 / 16:19

      They are, and preferably with railings between you and the sea for safety’s sake!

    Beautiful captures. There is nothing worse than getting wet in the cold winter, so we stood way back to have a peak 😉

  13. csuhpat1's avatar csuhpat1 January 11, 2023 / 16:00

    Such beautiful pics and waves. So very nice.

  14. tommyandteaghan's avatar tommyandteaghan January 11, 2023 / 17:17

    Wow those are gorgeous shots! The water looks so beautiful and raw and powerful like that.

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings January 12, 2023 / 16:59

      Thank you. I think it looks quite majestic on days like that.

    There was a time we lived in the Hague at the beach, but when it was weather like this the wind went through all the cracks in the old house we were living, so I am glad I can see this from the comfort of the computer:)
    Thanks for braving the stormy weather for these captures! At the same time here, in my previous state California they have flashfloods and whole neighborhoods had to be evacuated in San Francisco (2 hours drive from where we lived).

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings January 12, 2023 / 17:09

      Thanks so much, Emille. We’ve heard much on the news about the flashfloods and the devastation they’ve caused.

      • Emille's avatar Emille January 23, 2023 / 02:08

        So unlikely for California, since there is often drought!

  16. Jackie's Photo Blog's avatar Jackie's Photo Blog January 11, 2023 / 22:12

    There has certainly been some rough weather lately, but impressive to watch.

  17. Kathe W.'s avatar Kathe W. January 11, 2023 / 23:00

    You chose the right day to be there! Gorgeous!

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings January 12, 2023 / 17:20

      They were literally taken at the end of my street and I walk along there most days, but avoid some!

      • Kathe W.'s avatar Kathe W. January 12, 2023 / 19:10

        Lucky you to be living there!

  18. Shiju Sugunan's avatar Shiju Sugunan January 12, 2023 / 05:30

    Lovely pics though! You got a seagull in flight as a bonus.

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings January 12, 2023 / 17:23

      More by luck than judgement, I didn’t realise I’d caught it until I went through the pictures!

  19. Veronica Lee's avatar Veronica Lee January 14, 2023 / 08:57

    WOW! Love the dramatic images, Keith.

    The waves are pretty wild!
