Description
Some say it is the best kept secret: Topsail Island. Here, in the early morning, two sandpipers stroll along the coast in Surf City, walking and pausing in an intimate dance. Vibrant colors reflect on the shore as the early morning sun greets the new day.

Betsy, I love this photo! Here's the question: Will you sell a digital picture sent by e-mail? There is a company that creates a celluloid copy from a high resolution digital photo for a back lit photo frame in my home. My husband has tried to contact you through Fine Art America also. Please let me know. Thank you! Peggy Lockhart, Monroe, La. peggy@straussprop.com or 318-547-9742.

Dear Betsy, All your work could be commented on for it's great quality, but I've chosen this because since I was a boy, wanted to paint seascapes. I saw the work of Frederick Waugh in the Carnegie International Art show in Carnegie Museum in Pittsburgh and that set me off. My first trip when I got a car was to the Maine Coast. I'm 89 and have been at it ever since. Your photo is one that really puts me where you were. Just Lovely!! I'm happy you commented on my work, because I always look at the work of those who comment and I am specially pleased to see your fine work.
Betsy Knapp replied:
Thank you so much, Paul. You are very kind in taking time to write such wonderful comments!
Topsail Beach, NC - United States
Thanks for the kind comments--I spend as much time as I can on Topsail--it's such a magical place, especially in early morning when the sunrises; it's such an uplifting experience! And this image is very special to me with the two sandpipers together--it reminds me of the wonderful times that I spend with my husband, walking the coastline, enjoying each other's company. I really appreciate my fellow beach-lovers in their interest with this image! Thank you!
