A little of the country, a little of the sea

On the Isle of Wight you get it all - countryside and then right next to it the sea. This is a view taken from the downs above Shanklin (on the way to Ventnor). In the distance you can once again see Culver Down (see previous post). We're facing north and you`ll come to mainland England if you continue across the sea in that direction (Selsey).

You can clearly see the old Coastguard houses in this picture. I wonder how they got down to the sea.

After seeing this picture, I'm almost certain that this is my preferred landscape ever... nice green hills and the beautiful roaring sea nearby... I envy you! =)

A mix of light and shadows on the one hand, landscape and see on the other hand. I really appreciate.
