Driftwood in abundance is the word for this beach. Whether the logs came from elsewhere or from beach erosion that toppled the trees doesn't matter. It's a staple on this beach! These are just a few of the examples. I have already used other photos of it and when we did the beach cleanup on Saturday the weekend we went there, it was log next to log against the shore and many times we walked over the logs to pick up debris that didn't belong on the beach.
I love, love , love all those pictures!those roots and trunks on that wonderful beach, I find that so melancolic and beautyful!!!
ReplyDeleteWow, how gorgeous! Lovely sand beach with beautiful logs (I just got to learn a new word here - log! thanks to you!)But debris surely doesn't belong to the beach! :/ (yet another new word for me..I'm learning by growing, hehe..)
ReplyDeleteI would love to walk on that beach!! And I love logs and other natural things coming up from the nature! It's exciting! Have a nice day! :)
Your trip wasn't a total wash out. You got some good shots.
ReplyDeleteI read Kathy's comment, I am amazed at all the things she has time for. I didn't know she was involved with Blogger help. It's good to know that they listen and fixed the problem.
Isn't that strange? At lunchtime I was having a look at the Olympic park and thinking that I'd like to stop there, maybe on the Makah reservation... Now of course I'm thinking I will HAVE TO do it someday!
ReplyDeleteThe driftwood is so pretty. I've never seen so much in one place!
ReplyDeleteI really like that second shot. It must have been looking over the barrier by the steps--made out of driftwood logs.
ReplyDeleteI remember driftwood on the beaches when I was growing up in Southern California, but not like we have on the Olympic Peninsula. It has to be because of the forests and logging.
Martha, I got caught up in the Blogger help group when I had a question last year. I got a lot of help, and hung around because it can sometimes be interesting what people run up against in their blogs (and sometimes what silly tings they do--and like yesterday, what silly things Blogger does to us.) I started answering questions when I could, and last fall they invited me to be a Blog*Star. I doodle around looking at questions while watching TV, and I can keep up on what's new.
Old wood of any kind is a wonderful subject for photography - the shapes, the patterns, the nuances, the texture - everything!
ReplyDeleteHard to pick a favorite, Paulei. But, I do love the long shot down the beach with the mist in the distance and the blown trees. I also love the shape and shadow of the second to last.
ReplyDeleteI would love to explore there even if I had to pick up garbage.
