Hunter's Beach, Acadia National Park, Maine © Doug Hickok
The remains of conifers have tumbled down from a forested slope to gather on the rugged, rocky edge of Hunter's Beach. Looking like ancient pincushions of twisting limbs, they weather rapidly in the harsh coastal climate of Maine... aging, ancient spirits of the wild.

They don't become amber though, do they? I believe that process only happens in the Baltic sea.
ReplyDeleteI just love those little red flowers too!
Fantastic depth to this image Doug!
ReplyDeleteYou and I have been to some of the same places, Doug, but YOU have the images!
ReplyDeleteI prefere trees die like this than just to be standing for years. Wonderful image.
ReplyDeleteGreat photo Doug!
ReplyDeleteHave a fine new week :)
Beautiful! I love these kind of remnants and the logs, which the ocean brings to the shore. This is the reason I loved the Canadian coast. Only there I have seen such a landscape.
