Freshwater West
The more space and emptiness you can create in yourself, then you can let the rest of the world come in and fill you up. Jeff Bridges After the magnificent, but foreboding sheer cliffs, the open sandy beach was a welcome breath of emptiness. The union of water and sand, constantly shifting, rising and retreating is a story that unfolds beautifully on a warm autumn day. I spent a moment to breathe in the crescendo of salty waves caressing the afternoon air and thought what a splendid day this has been. #hiking
