Happy Sky Watch Friday, when bloggers from all over the world celebrate the simple beauty of what we find in the sky.  The rock is called a coffee rock and found where fresh water rich with minerals seeps out to the sea.

I agree with the quote so true. Many people look for that beauty but couldn't find it because they were looking at it in the wrong place. ^_^ Thanks for sharing your shot it is beautiful!
