I love the foam, brilliant work Brian.

A beautiful rendition of the surf creeping up onto the beach. Such a difficult challenge age but you have mastered the difficulties so superbly Brian.

Oh, I do like this a LOT!

Thank you very much indeed, Ronald, Carole and Heather, for the generous comments. Much appreciated. I've been away from almost everything AGAIN recently but I'm delighted to back AND to see so many familiar faces. Best to all Bri
