New Zealand: Elliot Bay

A year ago today we spent some time at Elliot Bay, 30 km east of Russell in the Bay of Islands. Look at the happy abstractions I found in the beach sand there: flowing water had created patterns that may strike you as more plant-like than the actual plants that ended up on top of them.

The picture below brings you in closer to a portion of what’s above.

Similar patterns recently appeared in the header of a post about a beach in Cornwall, England.
