#TidesOutTuesday

It just occurred to me that my headline image is perfect for #TidesOutTuesday so here is the whole image More mangroves 🤣 Lee Point, Darwin #photography #nature #wetlands #tidal #coastal #mangroves #patterns #art #EastCoastKin

A dense forest of mangroves lines a tidal creek bank. It is low tide, and all of the mangroves root systems are exposed, so they all look as though the shore has been washed away. Somewhat surprisingly, the mangroves are all much the same height, same distance apart, and form a perfectly straight line along the creek bank, looking more like an artistic pattern than real life. The repeated horizontal patterns of roots, then thin, pale white trunks, then bushy foliage create a series of patterns across the image.

Good Morning! Nightcliff Bay at low tide, a peaceful scene #TidesOutTuesday #photography #landscape #BlueSkyMonday #seascape #Panorama #peaceful #gift #EastCoastKin

A panoramic view of Nightcliff bay, Darwin, NY. In the foreground is a dense belt of coastal manroves. Behind them is the sandy-brown expanse of the mangrove flat and shallow bay, exposed at low tide. Just visible on the apparentl horizon is a sliver of green, the Timor sea waiting to return, and above is a blue sky with a large, puffy white cumulus cloud floating by.

Sand bubbler crabs on their way to a meeting (Dotilla spp.) Not the prettiest of crabs, but entrancing to watch waves of them scuttling purposefully over the low-tide sand. #TidesOutTuesday #photography #macro #shore #LowTide #crabs #crustaceans #EastCoastKin

A small section of a larger group of sand bubbler crabs on the march across a low-tide mangrove flat. The crab's bodies are quite bulbous, not like a typical flattened semicircle, and they move quite fast for their diminutive size.

An Icelandic memory for #TidesOutTuesday As low tide pulls water from the glacial lagoon, 1000 year old icebergs slowly make their way to the sea #EastCoastKin #ericgphoto #landscapephotography #ArcanumAlumni #landscape #photography #G+Circle #PhotographersUnited #PhotographersOfBluesky #Iceland

A vividly pink and blue colored sky over Iceland's Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon in mid-summer as thousand year old icebergs slowly make their way to the sea.

Sea-eagle over the flats at dusk #TidesOutTuesday It's hard to tell land from water as the tide recedes here, it's a beautiful interplay of light and ripples. Alt-text for more... #photography #art #landscape #seascape #dusk #tidal #mangroves #nature #EastCoastKin #PhotographersUnited

A lone sea-eagle soars over the tidal flats of Nightcliff bay at dusk. The bay is dotted with pioneer mangroves living beyond the dense shoreline colony, and the scene is a strange mixture of sea and land, just as the flat itself is a fluid mixture of land and water. The dying light glints and shines off water and wet sand alike, making a glistening plain dotted with dark mangrove silhouettes. (Ichthyophaga leucogaster)
