I love the comparison of the BW and color, particularly in the last two. Amazes me to non end how different a feel and look color and BW have, of the same image. One of the joyous oddities of life and the visual cortex taking it in.
When I read your title, I immediately was taken to Florida, and the smell of the ocean as it rolls in. The morning is the strongest. Thanks for the olfactory 'take me back'. Cheers on a Tuesday in June.

Thank you, DD:) I know what you mean. Some days the ocean smells so good. I think it might be linked diatom blooms. You know those little guys that make all our oxygen:) I gotta stick my head out the windor more often. LOL.

Is this oxygen thing important? I LOVE that smell. So organic. The tropics and the NW ocean are different, and each has their own smell, but both are equally divine. And living miles inland from it, I'm always amazed when I get out of the car, and it hits me like passing through a huge wall of olfactory jello. Only a GOOD smell. Rot and diatoms and fish and sand and ocean bloom. Oh, the joy. Can you smell it from your window? You are lucky. So get that head out more often, and your brain will appreciate it. Cheers

On some days, yes. It is a windy day today and so the surf is strong and so is the smell:)
