The pelicans paddlein coils of waves and light. Low tidereveals fissures of saltwater and rock.From the smallest crevicescolor insists-colonies of jadeanemones, a purple starfish harvest, barnacleshiding beaks of unbleached linen, black musselbouquets.

Quote
The sensation of the ocean bearing my weight was the most carefree lightness I’d ever experienced.

We quickly ducked under the surface of the water, exposing only the tips of our trunks so we could breathe.
