I’m just sliding in under the wire with this challenge from The Daily Post! The new one will be out in a day or two, but this was too much fun to miss! Here is my entry for “Perspectives”:
Sometimes, when you get very, very close to things, your perspective changes. Be sure to click on the photo to see a larger version.
Peeking into the tide pools on a beach at beautiful and wild Tofino, BC, offered hours of fascinating exploration. If you have never been there, add it to your wish list!
Patricia Sands lives in Toronto, Canada when she isn't somewhere else, particularly the south of France. With a happily blended family of seven adult children and, at last count, six grandchildren, life is full and time is short. Beginning with her first Kodak Brownie camera at the age of six, she has told stories all of her life through photography. Much to her surprise a few years ago, she began to write and has now published three novels, including two that are part of a six-book series set in the south of France. Love France? Love her work! Check out her website www.patriciasandsauthor.com She is particularly drawn to the rewarding friendships of women and the challenges many embrace once their families are grown. "It's never too late to begin something new," she enthuses. "As the saying goes, just do it!"

Oh, Tofino. How I’d love to go there again. Or anywhere on Vancouver Island. What a wonderful, wild place. I even didn’t mind being denied one particular beach walk. Not when the reason was ‘bears at large’.
Vancouver Island is very nice. I can believe the bears comment. We’ve had them in our yard several times and we live just on the outskirts of a mid-island town.
Perspective certainly does change when you see the whole picture. That’s why it’s so important not to judge anything until you know all the facts and both sides of the story.

Oh my! You never know what kind of wild challenges Mother Nature will present at spectacular Tofino. I’m so glad you have been there!

I think Vancouver Island is the best place to experience all Mother Nature has to offer. It’s a special and unique location!

I love this post, Patricia.

Right on!
I know zilch about starfish, outside of Patrick in SpongeBob, Patricia. Was that one you photographed still alive? Great color!
Yup, all alive! Patrick was there too but wanted me to pay him if I took his picture!
Wow, and I used to think he was a nice guy. Yet another celebrity myth shattered.
That is pretty cool. I would have never guessed it was a starfish.That second photo is terrific.
Thanks, Phil! I was mesmerized … there were a ton of them and many different colours.
I love Tofino and just got back from a visit last month. I believe I saw that very same starfish. I recently blogged about my wonderful visit http://darlenefoster.wordpress.com/2014/02/23/tofino-get-away/
Wonderful photographs!
