My gosh, I've misplaced my charger for both of my camera's, the Canon, the Nikon. They are in a calico bag somewhere within the house, searched high and low but alas! They will turn up eventually. I'll just have to use my phone if needed.
When the tide goes out we see these odd markings in the sand - the sea is certainly a mystery. I researched what these designs could be and came up with this explanation. I had already taken the photos, and my curiosity got the better of me.
The markings and shapes in the sand when the tide goes out are primarily caused by the interaction of water flow (waves and currants), gravity, and sometimes wind and marine organisms, all working to move and deposit sand grains. These patterns are collectively known as 'bedforms'.
How many of you who have visited the sea seen any shape like these?
I hope your camera chargers reappear, Margaret.
ReplyDeleteUsually, when you stop looking, you suddenly see them again.
I think the textures in the sand are truly beautiful.
Best regards Irma
Thank you Irma. I'm hoping the chargers will turn up too and if I were to buy new ones, then the old ones would appear, so I'm waiting then I will look again.
DeleteThe pattern in the sand is very beautiful, Margaret. You have sand and I have snow. Nature has so much to look at. I'm sure you'll find the chargers for your cameras when you stop looking. It's always like that here.
ReplyDeleteYou are probably right on chargers. I've stopped looking for now.
DeleteYes, nature is amazing, Marit.
The markings in the sank looks remarkable! Finger crossed that you find your chargers again soon.
ReplyDeleteInteresting markings and not always do we see them like that. Thanks, re chargers.
DeleteInteresting patterns in the sand.
ReplyDeleteVery interesting Mary and not always do we see such markings.
DeleteDarn about the chargers. I swear I misplace things on a daily basis. LOL Love the shots of the bedforms. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteI cleaned out the cupboards or tidied them up in the winter, put the bag with the chargers in them have used before Christmas and can't remember where I put them...they will turn up I'm sure.
DeleteThanks.
It is always quietly astonishing how the sea leaves behind such intricate signatures
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing, so good though and to wonder what exactly made those marks.
DeleteSorry about the chargers. Beautiful photos, dear Margaret.
ReplyDeleteThank you Linda.
DeleteI've seen them but I've never wondered about them. Now I don't have to wonder about bedforms.
ReplyDeleteNo you don't have to wonder, Andrew. We now know including myself what they are called.
DeleteLovely to see these patterns in the sand.
ReplyDeleteI do hope your camera chargers reappear ...
Have a good week.
All the best Jan
Always interesting to see those patterns, we don't always see them.
DeleteThanks re chargers, I'm sure they will appear for before too long, well hopefully, Jan.
The sand patterns are wonderful and I have never seen any like that. I have seen ripples in hard sand down by the water edge and they are fun to walk on but not for too long at my age, they get a bit hard on the feet.
ReplyDeleteI have misplaced something too, the blades bit of my blender which I kept after the glass jug part cracked from top to bottom. I thought maybe I'd buy a replacement jug, but not before I found the blades. After turning out every single cupboard and drawer I have decided I can live without a blender. I have the stick mixer and that will do. I hope you find the camera chargers.
The photos I took show strong patterns as you say we don't always see.
DeleteI don't know if I could walk too far on the sand these days as now, I would be a bit tottery, ok on something very solid though.
Well a stick mixer is good, but you never know your blades might turn up out of nowhere one day - then you might get the glass jug.
Uy son muy lindos. Te mando un beso.
ReplyDeleteThank you :)
DeleteThese looking bloody amazing
ReplyDeleteÈ sempre così in casa, quando cerchi una cosa stai pur certa che non la trovi.
ReplyDeleteI tuoi caricabatterie spunteranno fuori proprio quando meno te lo aspetti.
Makes me wish that I lived near the sea. Hope your chargers turn up soon.
ReplyDeleteNice patterns. Water is a great artist
ReplyDeleteSem dúvida. tenho visto inúmeras vezes.
ReplyDeleteAbraço de amizade.
