These were taken on our last day in Zarauz. I had got up early and headed down to the beach with my camera for one last walk. It´s a ritual that my mother started years ago when I was a little girl. At the end of the summer we´d always go down to the water´s edge and say thank you and goodbye. It was always bitter sweet. I would be sad that summer was ending, but also looked forward to the new beginnings that awaited me. Just as I was leaving I saw this...

Aww... Beautiful tradition! Great photos!
What a great way to say goodbye to summer!
Now I´m off to see the rest of what I´ve missed. I allready saw some pics of Munich. By the look of it you had a great summer to say goodbye to. ;)

gorgeous shots Jane
Beautiful photos!
A message from your Mother.
So beautiful photos again!
What a lovely tradition! I am a bit behind the posts and just saw the Coco and Dean label but could not see very well what was inside. Is it your label? If so, What do you make? (love the name by the way)
I like that tradition. We will still have a few more weeks of summer here in Georgia before it becomes fall. No signs of the trees changing colors yet. It has only slightly cooled off.
It's a nice tradition. We say goodbye to summer when we use the fireplace for the first time in the season, hopefully in October (and we're lucky not to have to say goodbye to the sea).
stunning photos! the light is so soft and golden.
i know what you mean, i also get sad when summer is ending, but at the same time look so much forward to all the new beginnings.
here's to a new season!
ahhh! wonderful photos! I want to be in them!
Those are fantastic pictures! That is a sweet tradition.
Oh Jane, what a lovely tradition!

your photographs tell such stories! oh, summer, where are you going? adieu, adieu, parting is such sweet sorrow.
