This meme is hosted by Alyce from At Home With Books

To participate in Saturday Snapshot meme post a photo that you (or a friend or family member) have taken. Photos can be old or new, and can be of any subject as long as they are clean and appropriate for all eyes to see. How much detail you give in the caption is entirely up to you. All Alyce asks is that you don't post random photos that you find online.

I've recently discovered that there is a man who brings a shovel to my local beach and makes designs in the sand. I just think they are beautiful.

Thank you for sharing!

Athira said...: I was going to ask you if this a real "Sign" (of the Shyamalan movie Signs fame). LOL!

That is a wonderful design and well-captured too!; February 5, 2011 at 11:09 AM

(Diane) Bibliophile By the Sea said...: What talent! I'd be curious to know what it signifies.; February 5, 2011 at 12:00 PM
Helen's Book Blog said...: Amy, Sheila and Bev--It was really fun to watch him create one

Aths--Nope, not a real sign. Each time he does it the design is different

Alyce--Temporary art is wonderful, I like that I get to see something different each time I go down to the beach

Diane--He said he just drags the shovel through the sand, walking in circles, or squiggly directions. No meaning, just interesting; February 5, 2011 at 1:25 PM
