If the sun is low you get the most amazing definition
to the imprint left in the sand by the ebbing tide.
And in places these sculptings are overlaid by
wind-blown ripples in the shallow pools
reflecting and shadowing in a finer dimension.
Subtler still than these, are the gentle waves of air,
eddies, on a plane, felt but unseen.

Beautiful...I have always had a fascination for fluvial landforms, even these small, possibly temporary ones made of sand.
ReplyDeleteGosh, sights like these are woven into my soul, brought up as I was by the sea. I do hope there are chilly, windblown beaches in heaven or I'm not going.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous set of photos. They take you straight to the beach. Thankyou.
ReplyDeleteAs usual, you see things that I would look past.
ReplyDeleteEvery one of those pictures has its own different special character.
Nature does it best.
ReplyDeleteLucille, these pictures are sublime. Nature is a very, very fine artist. Isn't it grand to appreciate these gifts of beauty?

Just the right sort of beach for walking barefoot over .... as long as you've brought a fluffy towel and a thermos of hot soup with you for afterwards !
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! It makes the sand look like shells of sorts. xxx
