Sunday By The Sea, Nautical Chic

So here we are again, another year gone by, at another unofficial start to Summer. It's time to revive a series called Sunday By The Sea.

Shall we go yachting?

Welcome aboard!  Nautical Chic designed by Kirsten Kelli

Are you feeling a tad peckish? Who wouldn't want to dine on board this yacht?

Fabulous sitting room - So many H's so little time! And the inlaid Moroccan table - wowza!

Time to eat again! This time topside

A living room on board that is bigger and nicer than those in most homes!

No dinky "head" on this boat!

Another space, perhaps the media room?

And this book looks pretty fabulous, Sand Sea Sky, The Beaches of Sagaponack, written and photographed by Tria Giovan.

Sand Sea Sky by Tria Giovan

What's a Sagaponack? It's a place in the Hamptons on the eastern end of Long Island, New York.
I spent many years celebrating the first unofficial days of Summer in the Hamptons, and I believe that the sand, sea, and sky there are among the prettiest in the world.

If your are in the Hamptons this summer, check out the book signing.

Saturday, June 30, 5 to 8pm, the East Hampton location of the Clic Bookstore & Gallery will celebrate the publication of photographer Tria Giovan’s book Sea Sand Sky: The Beaches of Sagaponack with a book signing and accompanying display of selected works.

A longtime resident of Sag Harbor, Giovan felt drawn to the serenity discovered within the protected bounds of the ocean front of nearby Sagaponack. In the production of Sea Sand Sky, Giovan spent over a decade observing the daily and hourly shifts in tides, wind, sand, and sky along its 3-mile strip of private and protected beach.

The images produced from the study reveal a precarious and delicate environment subject to constant upheaval and rejuvenation. As she observes: “these photographs of this vulnerable landscape invite a thoughtful concern about the environmental preservation of special places that engage our capacity for wonder.”
