Beachposts

These sturdy beachposts were installed half a century ago, to protect the adjacent shack (long vanished) from the high tides of winter. Now, they have assumed a life and purpose of their own.
I took the photos immediately below in 2015, using my ancient camera and ancient technology..

 

A few weeks back, not long  after a full-moon storm, Sam photographed the same beachposts. As you can see, there has been a massive shift of sand north and/or south – and possibly offshore. By mid-summer, the posts will be half-buried once again.

  1. They’re beautiful sentinels, existing together like siblings, reappearing as permanent residents … love their ancient surface & textures. Nice photos Chris, better for the technology of the time.
