My quarantine life...this is what I miss most....

in GEMS6 years ago (edited)

Not much to say...

This is exactly what I can't handle during this global mess, really.

Privileged enough to live in a country where there are hundreds of seas and that bright flaming star up in the sky isn't hidden behind clouds 300+ out of the 365 days of the year.

As far as I can remember myself, being at the beach has always been a part of my daily routine. I guess I've inherited this love and this passion for the sea from my parents.

As a kid, during summer we used to stay at the beach with my family hours after the sun had gone down. I think there are no proper words to describe how I feel when I am close to the sea.

Becoming an all year swimmer came naturally...

And those last minutes, right before the sun goes down...

The sky becomes the canvas and nature itself can beat the greatest painter of all times...

So this is a compilation of some of my favorite sunset shots over the years. Which one you like most?

Almost a full month since I lasted visited the beach and I think I'm going crazy...can't even imagine the impact this Corona thing could have on millions of people's lives all over the world if it lasts a few more months...

Enjoy.

The beach is so calming and peaceful!!!

Amazing pictures! I love many of them, hard to pick a single one! Where do you live?

I am still allowed to go out ( here in The Netherlands ) but I'm locked in a city that I've never been before and have to make do with parks.

Being single is harder now than ever, I haven't touched another human being in about two weeks and I can't even visit my own parents, brother, sister or any of my friends, even though I came here from Portugal about a month ago to be social.

Anyhow this wasn't meant to be about me. I know many people suffer much more than me, but - in a way - it's nice to know that everybody can relate these days. We are all in the same boat ( even though some boats are way more luxurious and bigger than others )

I wish that it all gets back to 'normal' asap and I hope you can go back to that beach and sea very soon.

Cheers,

Vincent
