Newcastle Beach Park (Bellevue)

Newcastle Beach park sits on Lake Washington in Bellevue. Since I don't see many beaches in my part of the world, while my family was shopping I took a short visit there and came back with some photos! I liked the trees that lined the path to the beach.
Although the weather wasn't perfect, I loved the large expanse of water. And the solitude, as the place was empty.
And there was real sand!
Next week I'll show you some photos from a short nature trail next to the beach. But until then, visit Scenic Sunday, where I'm sure you can find more beach photos.

    Oh, yes! That's definitely Seattle! I'd recognize those gray, grumpy skies anywhere!! It is a beautiful place though, isn't it? One of my favorites! Wonderful captures as always, Al!! Enjoy your weekend. A pat for Socks from Sam and me!

    Real sand, eh? It's so good for a natural pedicure.

    I prefer scenery like that over shopping any day! Great captures.

    Olá, amigo!
    Gostei do lugar e das fotos.
    Achei triste esses troncos de árvore caídos na água...

    Bom fim de semana!
    Beijinhos.

    Love those "gray grumpy" skies... We've missed them here in Texas this summer (no real rain since May!) so this is a refreshing series! THANKS!

    Doesn't matter where you are -- whatever state you're in your world is beautiful and beautifully photographed.
