Flaming Seaweed

Gallery: FloraPosted December 5, 200952 views4 comments
I imagine this to be Flora :biggrin:
Though not the usual and indeed my first post to this gallery.
Don't ask what the species is I haven't a clue.{Kelp}

Went out looking for a sunset again but this time no clouds and the sea a bit murky with sediment from the recent rain.
The bridge across the creek was at a jaunty angle and the water foaming around the piles.
So I flagged the sunset idea and spotted this lot of seaweed as it was low tide.

Rodney: Welcome to the finest Flora gallery on the planet. I've been moderating this gallery for a long time and I don't recall anyone posting seaweed before. Very cool abstract and lighting. Thanks for a terrific first post. Great to have you aboard and looking forward to more. >=))>

Nice light and texture here Rodney, the angle of the seaweed helps make the image more dynamic too.
