The tide is on the make. These anemones and the rocky tub that shelters them during drier times are soon to disappear in the foaming flood.

    1. Thanks for taking the time to mention it. I’ll confess, it took me a while to warm up to it. The sea was pretty active at the time; I like that aspect.

  1. Lovely colors, movement and angle. You are an inspiration! Been walking the wrack line at Long Beach, WA picking up human trash — my little effort to save the ocean!

  2. What an amazing view! I can almost hear the ocean’s roar and hiss and smell the salt air. šŸ™‚

    1. Great description of what it was like. One interesting note, I’ve been to that spot many times and never seen that lineup of large anemones. Thanks Cristina!
