It took me a week, but I finally got around to editing my photos from our vacation. I know some of you may have watched the TV show Jersey Shore... well, this is the real Jersey shore. If you get up early enough, you can have the beach almost entirely to yourself, and wow is it ever beautiful! The beach photos you see here were taken in Wildwood Crest, where the beach itself is about a half mile wide. What a lovely spot! The lighthouse is the Cape May lighthouse. There is a beautiful beach there as well, but no lifeguards. Cape May is known as a fabulous place to watch birds, and when we were there we saw several white herons although I didn't get any decent photos of them... :(

Hi Mary, look like a wonderful vacation at the Jersey Shore. I love the birding at Cape May and the beach there is beautiful. Lovely photos and mosaic. Thanks for hosting and I wish you a great week ahead.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful beach. Love the editing. Valerie
ReplyDeleteThe colors are beautiful, cool and cooling... I've never been to the Jersey shore, though I've heard of its beauty many times. I was surprised that the beach is that wide...unheard of here in my corner. So now we know that you were an early riser and enjoyed the beach at the best possible time of day.
ReplyDeleteGreat looking place.
ReplyDeleteI know that beach so well...we have been vacationing in Wildwood Crest for years. It has the most beautiful beaches and you can enjoy the boardwalk in Wildwood when you enjoy it! Living at the top of the Jersey Shore I kind of resent that show.
ReplyDeleteMany households are in great anticipation as their youngsters are preparing to go back to school in the morning. I feel like I am headed for another season of "school" posting to "Mosaic Monday". What fun!
ReplyDeleteLove your photos!

I love the Jersey shore, Mary. It's been a long time, but I can remember walking on long, wide beaches like you've shown. So beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful lighthouse! I would love to travel and photograph more of them. Happy Mosaic Monday!
ReplyDeleteMary, Your beach scenes are fabulous, especially the very first photo!

Your photos are wonderful. When I was a girl I spent a summer in a place called Wildwood about 20 miles south of Atlantic City. I wonder if this is the same place? The photos are so peaceful.

I was so very happy to visit the Jersey Shore with you via Instagram! My college roommate lives on the shore in Sea Grit and I will have to make it a point to visit her soon! Gorgeous shots!
ReplyDeleteNow that would be a Jersey Shore I would be interested in. The TV show of the same name....not so much.
ReplyDeleteI missed Mosaic Monday last week, and am so glad I have come back to see your post today. Beautiful beach pictures from your holiday. I particular like the light and the way you have composed the top picture with the old jetty going out into the ocean. beautiful.
