Hydnosis

A couple of unseasonally wintry days had the ocean stirred up and pounding at the sandstone cliffs of the Shipwreck Coast at full force while we were down there. It's not hard to see why this coastline is on average receding at the rate of 2 cm per year. The rhythms of the waves and the patterns left behind as the water is sucked back away from the rocks is entrancing - I think I could sit there for days watching them, one never quite the same as the next.
