These 8 images each include a verse from a poem and are intended to be viewed and read consecutively. The poem is titled THE SEA and attempts to capture the mystic allure of the ocean, and also its ever present danger. I hope you enjoy them! ~Randy

  • Very beautiful album and poem. There is somehing about the salt water that draws you near it. When you lived by it and enjoyed it by boating and spending time on it's beaches, there is nothing like the sea. A lake just won't do. Myrna

  • 'THE OCEAN' is very Special, thank you for sharing this wonderful dedication to your Wife and the Ocean. I have enjoyed all your photography this year Randy, and I hope I have learned a little as well. It is amazing that we can form friendships around the World through WebShots. Not long ago I had never used a Computer, taken a Digital Photograph, sent an Email, edited a Photograph, it seems so long ago. I wish you a very Happy New Year and hope that 2008 brings much Joy and Happiness and all your Dreams come true!. Warm Wishes from Sydney, Australia...Helen.

  • What can I say Randy biiiuuutiiifuulll!!! A pleasure to the eye and the soul! Sitting here with a nice vino (dropped the Kahluha at Judy's earlier, in case you're wondering :D)and savouring the small but grand album! You may not have made it on the poster with the boys from Sufer's Paradise (not being Aussie n'all(NO...not the lack of hair...!)). Next time we'll do the boys from Port Orford Beach :D)...now let me get back to this beautiful piece of art! cheers Mate! Marita

  • Hi Randy - a beautiful rendering to post for a new year. Now I'm sure you belong out there on the west coast - you never waxed poetic about Lake Michigan. Your photos are magnificent, as usual, and a lovely way to end ... in brilliant color. 2008 promises to be a wonderful year - go for the ops!! - DeeAnne
