“You’ve seen the beauty,” said a volunteer for the park today walking along the beach. We stopped to chat discussing education, american government, environment, and wildlife. He reminded me of all the beautiful sights found along the coast, the beautuful stumps of the mangrove trees rising from the water, the bald eagles and their young nesting on the island, and the many plant species growing here. Being reminded of this brings back memories of the hard work people have done to capture the beauty in photography and art, and how those types of media are becoming less often seen. There really are many beautiful things to see and photograph or paint along the water.
