the crab scuttled and scurried across the scorching hot sand searching for its next victim.Walking along the beach‚ the bright sun is nearly hot enough to cover you in an invisible blanket of warmth. The beautiful‚ big blue ocean’s waves are crashing against the cliffs as you watch the seagulls joyfully fly around in circles in the air.

Walt Whitman (1819 - 1892) paints a scene of a little girl and her father looking up at the stars on an autumn night‚ at a beach.

Whitman really

The Night of the Hunter‚ the scene in which Harry murders Willa in her bed is symbolic through the formal elements of lighting‚ location‚ prop placement‚ and costuming in the mise-en-scène to represent a funeral and the battle between good and evil.

The Beach The smell of salt in the air‚ the wind blistering my face‚ the sun glinting in my eyes; these are some of my favorite things about the beach. I have always loved the beach and I have always love the sights and smells of it.
