Trees & wildlife but no pavement or people. It's rare that I see anyone. I take off my shirt so that I get my vitamin D required from the sun--1/2 hour. This is in the mountains of New Mexico, USA.

I tend to walk early in the morning anyway so there's very few people about other than the other dog walkers and joggers, it's strangely peaceful!

Antrim from Co. Down. The 200 metre high chimney in the distance is at Kilroot, a dual coal/oil fire Power Station. The prom was upgraded last year and I am hoping the colourful flower beds will soon be restored. @Darlene - We are very fortunate in Ireland, that of the 32 counties on the island only 12 are land-locked. You did well the luminous jacket is a yellowish green. @WWW - The water is Belfast Lough that divides Co. Antrim from Co. Down.

I love the sea and to live near it must be wonderful. I enlarged it and found the woman, but was not too sure about the man. I thought the color of the luminous jacket was lime green. I need new glasses. What a beautiful promenade for a morning walk. I love the sea and to live near it must be wonderful.

I like the endless promenade devoid of people but there is something rather unsettling about it. Nicely done.

Your sight is good you found the people. @Ramana - Perhaps word was out and they were all in hiding from me! :roll:
