Wild and windy day at the beach. Recently the tides have been really high bringing huge logs of many shapes and sizes onto the beach...a big hazard to sit on one since we lose people every year with sneaker waves. Pearl of course had to climb it but the tide was way out so it seemed safe.
For flash of red February. Thanks for your visits, comments, suggestions, favs
Wonderful shapes and textures in this driftwood Jane. Interesting what you say about the waves there, goes to show one needs local knowledge when dealing with nature.
Very interesting to read about you losing "people every year with sneaker waves" and the mini earthquakes. In what way? Surely not from huge waves washing them out to sea? Or am I missing something?
Wonderful textures in your shot.
@kwiksilver yes, big waves washing them out to sea, clobbering them with logs or against rocky shorelines. It always worries me when I see tourists sitting on the innocent appearing logs
That's really interesting. We get huge swells and waves on our coastline but not often on a beach. Fishermen are sometimes swept off rocks, or people get caught in riptides but thankfully not too many.
Wonderful textures in your shot.
