I gave in to temptation (easy...) and decided to do a week based on the five elements. What a nice idea. It gives me the chance of looking at my photos with a different perspective. And I've decided to share photos taken during previous vacations, in different towns.
Today, Monday, for the water theme I've chosen a photo taken at the New England Aquarium in Boston, two weeks ago on a short trip with my two daughters. I have been to the aquarium already, a couple of years ago; Alizée too, last year. And Miranda had her turn this year. I didn't really want to take pictures inside, it is very dark and in general, I'm not really satisfied with the results in these conditions.
But then, at the end, I surrendered and I admit that I don't regret it at all. I love the pictures of the anemones, they are beautiful plants. I love the ocean, but more as a landscape than a pool (and, as a road, well... I guess it's fine). In fact, I rarely swim in it; the poor swimmer I am must be the reason. But the sea... The seashore. The sound of the sea. The smell of the sea. And those wonderful creatures living under the sea...

I love your aquarium photo and I love the Boston aquarium! The anenomes are wonderful!
This picture is my daughter's favorite from the aquarium, that's why I chose it. She told me she loves the fuzzy colors and, well, I agree!
lovely!
Thanks...
Beautiful aquarium picture, thanks for sharing a favorite of your daughter; I like the fuzziness too! Your words about the sea touch me so, because I too love the sound, the smell and idea of life beneath the waves.
Have a joyful day.
I wish I could go by the sea in the fall. We never know!
