The Baltic Sea close to the coast near the german city of Kiel.
Happy places depends on many ingredients, all subjective to the individual.
It does not necessarily need to be a fixed location.
That may be changing both literally and figuratively.
A happy place is the right place – at the right time – for the right person.
As this late summer afternoon in harsh sunshine with a tempting billowing winds.
Weekly photo challenge “Happy place“.
Happy places don’t come by themselves, they should be looked for.

Love the feel of this. Would really like it framed on my wall.
Love this one, Drake.

That shot has real character. Perhaps it embodies the spirit of the Baltic? Water is cold – sails ethereal – sky not showing much promise. Des.

So enticing, Drake. Love the colours. 🙂
Lovely! Much to contemplate in the sea, the sky and the restless movement of the boats (and those aboard). Regards Thom.
Love this post, Andrikken. Happy places create happy memories and you are absolutely right, they don’t come by themselves.
lovely post, Drake — the Baltic Sea image is dreamy, and I like the quotes too, especially the last line~~ 🙂
