The sandy shore of lac des Deux Montagnes in the Le parc national d'Oka, Quebec. A sunny day early in autumn. This is about halfway between two beaches with very different occupants. The beach in front, across the bay is a family-oriented beach. Roughly the same distance in the opposite direction behind the photo is a beach that is used mostly by nudists.

Surfers at sunset, foot prints in the sand, Black's Beach, La Jolla near San Diego.

Northern stretch of Black’s beach in La Jolla near San Diego in November, almost deserted. The northern beach is popular for surfers and nudists.

These lavender coloured pea-like flowers are American groundnuts (Apios Americana) and were found growing as a vine in the sand along the shores of the beach in Oka Park in Quebec. The beans and roots of this plant are highly nutritious and were eaten by native Americans and early settlers.

These are cardinal flowers ( Lobelia cardinalis ) growing in the sand at Oka beach near Montreal. The bright red wild flowers are pollenated by humming birds. It's the first time I have found them so I was enormously pleased when I stumbled upon them. (I was looking for frogs at the time). Oka is a fresh water beach on a bulge in the Ottawa river near where it joins the St Lawrence river called the Lake of Two Mountains. Cardinal flowers are in the lobelia family. I didn't have a camera with me so these were taken on a phone camera.
