Aren’t they beautiful - this makes me sad somehow.
MobiColour RESULT: MC #124 Theme WET - June 11-17
What a great angle you got on this. Did you get wet feet?
Fabulous. Love that green and, somehow, it’s really restful for the eyes (well, it is for mine). Love it.
That is quite something and much better than Bon Jovi's difficult 3rd album ( like I know)
Fab and a great interpretation of the theme!

I'd like to know that as well!

Beautiful, and what a basis for a collage!
I was splashing (carefully - so as not to disturb that glass-like transparency) around in the water peering at clumps of seaweed for just that purpose. There were lots of tiny little fishies in tiny little schools darting around - not one of the little buggers showed up in ten plus images, btw ...
anyway, I liked the image as it was and forgot all about Wrecking it.

It was in a park quite low below a concrete path. I had to lie on the floor and reach down to get the low vantage. Couldn't see the screen so composition was tricky.

It’s because the support timbers last longer when kept dry. It lengthened the lifespan of the bridge.
What if plants flowed like wet paint when they got wet...
Yesterday while I was in town I started thinking about other ways to express “wet-ness”, beside literal images, like the one below. I came up with a list.
Anyhow, it was a first try.

There’s actually a name given to the highest point on the beach the last high tide came to, where you see the most recent line of bits of seaweed, seashells, etc: Wrackline.
Yes, I found I was feeling the same thing.
Wet feet.
I wasn’t going to post this because I wasn’t happy with how fuzzy it got with reduced resolution making it small enough to post.. but... since the topic of wet feet was mentioned...

I think that's it -- it's easier to redo the roof than to redo the bridge itself. Wikipedia says "Uncovered wooden bridges typically have a lifespan of only 10 to 15 years because of the effects of rain and sun." And it would keep the bridge clear in snow country, too, I guess.
I thought the same thing. Perhaps it is, if someone was willing to wade in through that algae. (It's in Natural Bridges state park and only 100 yards or so from the ranger station.)Ahhh, this is where they hang out. That perch almost looks manmade.
No, those patterns are in the sandstone itself! There's one area of the beach where the sandstone is just full of these strange markings, like secret writing.
That’s true about the snow, these days. In the olde days of horse and sleigh they used to shovel snow on the roadway inside the bridge so sleighs would slide through. The temperature inside the bridge was more stable than outside so the snow stayed snow instead of melting and freezing. The evidence shows covered bridges lasted a lot longer than uncovered ones.
