Sculptures of the Sea

It has been a beautiful day today, so I drove up to Oakvale Farm to take photos of some of the animals.

I won't get chance until tomorrow to look at the photos as we are out for dinner this evening, so here is a photo taken a couple of days ago along the foreshore.

I love taking photos of the dead mangroves in the ocean, they always look like sculptures.

There are lots of mangroves behind me along the foreshore so not all are lost.

As you can see the water is much calmer on our side of the bay as it is sheltered.

This works so well; it does look like a sculpture garden. I like the verticals against the calm horizontal of the hills and horizon line.

I think there is something so beautiful about dead trees in water.

@tinley23 I don't know what caused these mangroves to die but there are lots of healthy mangroves just behind here on this stretch of the beach.

@maggiemae Thanks, yes I had a lovely meal out last night.

@milaniet Thanks. I thought that about the photo I am going to post today. Check it out. Girls and boy mangroves dancing in today's photo.

I agree with you- they do look like sculptures. Cool shot!
