Description
My son and me walked down this old boat ramp they had by the bridge and he showed me this beach coved with broken bottles. If you enlarge you will see the glass better. I have on my nikon 90 a 70mm s 280mm lens and that the only lens I have so that why it is out of forus in the foreground.
thanks for looking and comments and votes.

I see the Air-mattress draped over the rocks, not a good beach to use one of them on. ;D Great shot!

Probably not the place to walk barefooted but the bits of colored glass to add a certain beauty.

Nice work on this capture Jock, it is really a wild sight. Have to admit it is sad to see a beautiful place trashed by so many broken bottles

This is so similar to our Glass Beach only we have a bit more sand mixed in with it. Artisans from a hundred miles or more come to sit and pick through the pieces to find just the right colors and shapes for their mosaics, jewelry and inlay. Wonderful shot.

In answer to your question the F-stop was probably set a bit too low which would limit the DoF and cause out of focus parts on the near and far. Interesting image.

My Goodness! Wonder what happened in this place!!?? So many tiny shards... I'd have to double check my shoes didn't have holes in them for this! :) Wonderful capture! This is great! I like how there are so many different tiny pieces, that from just a brief glance, make it look so intricate and colourful! Awesome subject and capture!

A stunning capture, and to me, a sign that when people regard nature as a trash can, they should know that , at the end of the day, nature will be the winner, at the expense of men. Thanks for sharing!

I'm thinking man-made for some decoration purpose. I've seen something like this but not on the beach.... Interesting shot. Aloha
