Barbara from Florida, United States
On a day like this.... I would sit back and listen to the sounds of the ocean and nature flying by. And feel the breeze brush softly across my face.
Then take a sip of my mocha latte before raising my camera to capture such a beautiful view of life around me.
You captured and stirred a peaceful moment. Wonderful.
4 Jun 2008 1:54pm
@Barbara: lol how beautifully put, I think though that the sip of mocha latter would come first than the rest follows then another sip ;)
