A Cold Sunny Walk on the Beach

Beaches take on a somewhat different persona in the winter, when the wind blows cold and salty ice forms around the edges of seaward things. As always, beaches change from day to day, pushing the stone, shell and shore this way and that by current, storm and tide. I'm always treated to something new no matter how often i return to the same beach, always some surprising treat, be it by creature, rock or sand, or simply by an unexpected play or quality of light. 
Risser's Beach is no exception. Once i would have said that of all the beaches within a reasonable drive Risser's was not a high choice property, but i believe i am slowly warming to her charms and discovering her hidden doorways and treasured secrets.
