#ShiftingSands

Into the Distance

The raw power of the last storm left its mark on the coastline in ways that words alone can’t capture. One wave barrier along the beach had been half-buried in sand, transforming the landscape into something entirely new. Behind the sand, seawater was trapped, forming a wide temporary lagoon. It’s a reminder of how coastlines are constantly reshaped—new land created in mere hours by natural forces that would take humans days of heavy labor to replicate. And just as quickly as it appears, nature can undo her own work with the next storm.

Standing at the far end of the wave breakers, I was struck by the illusion of infinity. The long row of wooden posts stretched out toward the horizon, now divided by the sudden dune as if the sea itself had been cut in two. It felt both surreal and epic, a fleeting sculpture carved by wind, waves, and time.

Scenes like these remind us that the shore is alive—never fixed, always shifting. Every tide, every storm, every grain of sand tells a part of the story. We are just lucky enough to be there to witness it.

Taken with my Canon 5DsR (51 megapixels) and Sigma ART 24/70mm lens.

Apropos of nothing (and everything) the word "Kobayashi-maru" popped up like a bad case of indigestion...and out of the murky swamps emerged distant memories of ad hoc attempts at "lateral thinking" or trying to believe "six impossible things before breakfast".

@jnthnwwlsn that detail that he has been teaching the same thing the same way for ten years and now it’s a fireable offense is striking #shiftingsands

The sort of thing you'd hear played in a dive bar, ideally near you, full of whisky and regret. Excellently arch.
