Yesterday’s Highest Tide
An almost sad still life. A desiccated jelly fish, dead coral, and a well-sanded organism of not quite clear origin, together, left by a previous very high tide. It was very windy that week, and the wind scooped out the sand from around them.
The spot of pink left on the coral echoes back to a marine life well lived.
Skull and Wig
A long-dead jellyfish disturbingly takes on the appearance of a skull. The seaweed? Well, decide for yourself. I toyed with saving this photograph until Halloween, but decided it is too much fun to wait that long.
Egg
A shadow photo for the day. Happy Easter!
Perched
Carapace and seaweed combine in an mimicry of a land scene just beyond the dunes.
St. Louis Visits South Carolina
The shadowing in this still life is strongly evocative of St. Louis, Missouri’s Gateway Arch, the largest man-made arch in the United States.
I am finding myself increasingly more delighted when I find fun shadows in still lifes.

What is Real?
Solid or shadow? It is a takes a minute to determine which is which.
I’m Not Moving – Go Around Me.
This wee mussel stood his ground against the very edge of the tide, creating a lovely still life.
Unkempt
Tossed and tumbled, yet still delicate and beautiful in form.
Dune Patterns
Have you ever seen an aerial photograph of dunes?
In wind, sand forms dunes of many sizes.
