We drove down to Whanganui on Sunday and visited Castlecliff Beach. It was a bit nippy and
very few people were around but the scenery was mysterious and magical.
It amazing to think that all this driftwood had been washed down the Whanganui River
and then washed up on the beach. This uprooted tree was about 90 feet long!
Looks so wild and natural... never seen such a long tree.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice new week
So fascinating, what's all washed up the shore! I think, if I would life somewhere at the sea, I would collect soo many things, I love this washed look of the wood which has been in the water for a while! All the best and thank you, Miuh
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! Look at all the driftwood!
ReplyDeleteThat's a big strong river to move that tree.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful photos !
ReplyDeleteHello Brave One, this looks like the intro of a scary movie. Had the same feeling as when the movie of Macbeth (Shakespeare) began - full of anticipation! And you were the first one to be able to link (after the drama with the Linky this weekend!) - Shanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteNever know what you're going to find washed up on the beach!
ReplyDeleteThese really do have a magical feel to them...I would be wanting some of those rocks for my yard....
ReplyDeletethis is not a swimfriendly beach. But so interesting to walk on :) Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Can't wait to explore New Zealand some day!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful...wonderful...nature!
ReplyDeleteI stopped to have a fascinating walk along the shore... It is such a great place, lovely scenery to admire... and very interesting findings, as well! thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteBest regards in this new week! Alexa
All pictures are beautiful, but the first and the last ones are stunning. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWow! I've never seen more than a small piece of driftwood on the shore in California where I live. This is amazing!
ReplyDeleteWow! That tree is huge! It does look very magical Betty... Michelle
ReplyDeleteIt's always interesting what the tide brings in. The long tree trunk is unusual. I would have thought that it would be in smaller pieces by the time it reached the beach.
ReplyDeleteThere's a wild beauty in the disorder shown in these photos, Betty. Well captured!
