rain, cold wind and a beach...

It's rainy, it's cold and it's windy...
Yet still people walk Dromana beach...
One carries a beach umbrella - to contend with the rain...
But in this scene, the umbrella seems to be useful for prodding some sea grass...
(there's a sliver of red in the folded umbrella)


lure of beach worlds
kaleidoscope of seasons
brews the magic

lost in translation?...

was, is, will be a sign?...
This odd little board features on a beach box at Dromana beach...
(It seems too, that this is one of the few beach boxes with an electricity connection...
But why is the floodlight turned away from the sign, and seems to face the roofline?)


a mystery
when invisible wires
cross somewhere
