Description
More from the beach at Edmonds.
This particular beach collects a lot of driftwood. There's a beach about a mile away that doesn't get any. It has to do with natural and man-made barriers, currents, the curve of the land in relationship to the angle of the waves, stuff like that.
Some of the driftwood around here is pretty big!
Top left: Do you see some sort of sea creature leaping up out of the sand? There's an eye to the left ... I didn't do anything to bring that out. Hmmm ... maybe it looks like an art deco hood ornament, come to think of it. What do you see?
Top right: This must have piled up during a storm. Normal wave action just deposits the logs on the beach parallel to the shore, it doesn't hurl them sideways.
Bottom left: Someone obviously had a fun day at the beach, making this teepee out of driftwood logs! It's easily tall enough to walk into. That gnarly looking thing off to the right is the rootball end of a tree.
Bottom right: A view down the beach. See the sea creature / hood ornament off to the right? And of course that's the teepee down the beach in the distance. The log pile is behind me.
..........
I made this big enough that in full view you'll be able to see each picture at a pretty good size.

Edit notes:
- I believe it's illegal to take driftwood from the beaches here.
- It's very gray here at this time of year. All these shots are in color.

These are a gorgeous collection of images! I especially like the top left image; my science fiction writer's mind sees a rather interesting creature in it. All of the images are fantastic; I love the way you've captured the various textures and cool, organic shapes. Fantastic work! And that reminds me, I really miss beaches, which means I'd better hurry up and get into a country with shorelines!

I love drift wood. it gets to ride in the ocean hang out on the beach with other drifters who may have been on the same journey and when they have had enough they can catch another wave go another journey to who knows where. The drift wood I saw on the beach didn't look this nice. very nice job my friend :)
