Yoda said...

Someone pick the bucket up!!! Its feeling all alone in a cold cold world ...

Annie said...

The quote you chose gave this photo a very poignant feel. The photo stands on its own but the added quote made it meaningful.

Lori said...

The picture and the caption go together perfectly. The angle of the shot is great too!

Nikon said...

I like the color of the sand - reminds me the beaches up here.
Nice composition & use of color, too.

Have a fun vacation. Did you take a class during summer ?
How about a food pic to kill time :)

a wise quote, but it's hard to live without regrets and "what ifs". we'd probably enjoy life much more if we didn't regret.

i know what it's like to be far away from home...and i, too, have had to make my home in places that didn't feel like "home". i think if your roots are strong, though, you carry your home with you no matter where you are.

i hope you're enjoying your summer, moi!

Chad Oneil Myers said...

Cool.

Unknown said...

Not only is it abandoned, its about to roll of the edge of the photo :)

I like photos of single simple things like this.

looks as though it was used for building sand castles, lovely as usual

RUTH said...

Lovely quote but hard to live by. A great photograph...we found an abandoned bucket on the beach yesterday...we put it on the pier so t wouldn't get washed away...hopefully today a child found it and it 's been buiding castles again.

Ash said...

Very nice photo and quote!

Love the angle that you have this at. Also a very nice quote.

Ben Nakagawa said...

It's not straight, Moi.
Well, I guess that added extra interest to this picture. It gives me a illusion of this yellow bucket is tumbling down from the sand dune. Nice colour and good tone in overall. Water in distance just remind me that is the illusion. Nice shot.

Ps. thanks for comment and don't worry about your first comment. you already deleted, before I piked up.

Appropriately titled & angled.

When a photo imprints itself on your mind in the first nanosecond that it is visible, you know it's great.

This is great.

Oh, my. A wonderful shot, of course, but it looks like the end of summer. Too soon, too soon!

Kalyan Panja said...

Thats a wonderfully captured & composed shot and the angle adds to the intensity of the shot...really cool!

you couldn't possibly have composed that better. been a while since i was here last.
so life's a beach huh???

laurel said...

I love the orange! Such a happy little picture.
Oh, and there are many wonderful places to shoot in the daytime in Miami. Just a few for starters:
South Beach
Washington Ave
Vizcaya
Fairchild Tropical Gardens
Dowtown (be careful where you venture)
Bayfront

Those are just the basic touristy places. If I think of anything else I will be sure to drop them your way.

fantastic shot, just beautiful!!!

JAM said...

I love your image here. I never remember to try angles like this. I spend half my time making sure I'm lined up straight and end up with boring stuff.

Great picture and caption!
