jacks

I won't have time for a photo today as life, as it does, has exploded in my face. With that in mind here is another one that I prepared earlier.
I took this at the delightfully named "North Mole" beach in Whanganui while I was there on business last week - this portion of the coast seems to be a magnet for driftwood of all shapes and sizes.

this is awesome what cool textures

[Lisa Pouncy]

Really dramatic xx

[Kas]

Love this. May have to copy if i see beach flotsam when I head off on hols soon.

[Graeme Stevens]

@izzyromilly Thanks very much :)
@psychographer Thank you kindly :)
@wag864 I love driftwood...so many shapes

[Taffy]

Like the giants simply stood up and walked away from their game. Well composed!

[Maggiemae]

Hope the explosion does not have any bad repercussions! This photo looks like it exploded into driftwood itself!

[Jennifer]

Great pov and shot

[Richard Sayer]

Strong B&W image - I like this very much.

[Katrina]

Another great shot. There's a stricken looking face to the right of the jack. Could tell it was a Graeme shot straight away..

[Liz Hammond]

Great shot, no matter it was earlier. I'm sure you are capable of time travel anyhow.

Sorry to hear life is exploding on you. Must be more careful when mixing matches and gunpowder ;-) Hopefully it will settle back soon.

[Graeme Stevens]

@lizhammond It usually does settle again but today in articular was destined to be chaotic anyway - and, as always, thank you :)
@katrinanz So there is - well spotted and thank you :)
@vignouse Thank you very much :)
@jesperani Thanks very much - I was on my knees. Again.
@maggiemae The entire stretch of beach is covered with driftwood. This is quite a lightly "carpeted" area
@taffy Thank you very much, my thoughts exactly.

[Yao RL]

What a busy scene. The sea is vomiting out.

[Shy Abel]

fantastic

[Rachel]

Excellent.

[Graeme Stevens]

@888rachel Thank you very much :)
@shylaine3304 Thank you kindly :)
@yaorenliu It tends to do that here - the entire beach is littered with the stuff

[Caroline]

Unusual 'thing' there on the beach, and may I say this illustrates life exploding in your face fairly decently :)

[Rosie Kerr]

As if the oceanic chess masters scattered the board.

[Walks @ 7]

Drift wood and tree stumps have so much character. This one reminds me of how I feel at the end of some days. Bits and pieces..... Great light and detail.

[Richard Sayer]

I've just noticed that there's a carnival mask - middle right... cool.

[Graeme Stevens]

@vignouse Good lord, so there is.
@joysabin You and me both and thank you very much :)
@rosiekerr Well they can tidy it up then!
@kerosene That was the intention although I hadn't saved this shot for that purpose!

[tony gig]

Great shot...Fav

[Graeme Stevens]

@tonygig Thank you very much :)

[Islandgirl]

Lovely b&w...........nice title!

[Graeme Stevens]

@radiogirl Thanks very much :)

[Lee]

I see faces in images like this, and I see one on this driftwood.

[Graeme Stevens]

@gamelee That's one reason why I like the beach and driftwood - there's always something to be seen

[Annie D]

lol - great title - love that game - assuming I am seeing what you saw :)

[Graeme Stevens]

@annied It sounds like you are...
