In the "window" area, have you been there? Any examples of large quartz "Stripes" on the underlying rock where it contacts the basalt flow?)

High Tide / Low Tide

For 8 years, Michael Marten has been taking photos from different spots of the British coast line,
documenting the daily rhythms of the tides. This gave way to a special landscape project. Marten
took photos of the same locations 8 and 16 hours apart, and showed the contrast between those
images, a work displaying the dynamic nature of the tides and how landscape can be drastically
different on a daily basis...

To see the change, click on the photos of low tide to see what they look like during high tide!

Living on the shore of Lake Ontario, just east of Toronto, photographer Matt Molloy has daily encounters with brilliant sunsets and cloudscapes that he’s been photographing for over three years. One day he began experimenting with time-lapse sequences by taking hundreds of images as the sun set and the clouds moved through the sky

@Region Philbis,

Thank you for these fantastic pictures. One does not really graps how great the difference is when there is no tides where you live.

@Region Philbis,

Great photos. Wonderful to see them at both high and low tide. I recognise at least one of them - St Mary's Island, Whitley Bay - from my native North-East coast, and possibly one of Yorkshire - are the locations listed anywhere?

@vonny,

doesn't seem to be.
you'd think they would have listed them...

@vonny,

A few years ago my daughter looked for a summer job in GB preferable London . She contacted an organisation in London. She got a job in Whitley Bay and was told it is just a couple of tube stations from central London.
