I’ve chosen a very literal interpretation of Paula’s theme at Black & White Sunday. First of all I thought you could not get any ‘lower-lying’ than at sea level, at least not without immersion in said sea. And then I thought of Marram grass being laid low in the gale, and how I was attracted by its bowing texture.

And then I thought of the sand beneath our feet:
These photos were taken last Christmas on a beach walk to Llanddwyn Island on Anglesey, North Wales. You can see more about the island HERE.
This I call WIND!
Marvelous pics!
You made me smile, Anna. Happy Monday to you.
Good response to the theme, Tish! Love that windswept marram grass
Thank you, Sue. And I like your decomposing forest cars 🙂
It was quite an atmospheric place!
You captured it well – as well as the decay. It crossed my mind that the cars looked like giant pods waiting to burst into some interesting plant forms (yikes!)
Hmm, the Kraken Wakes 😧
Ooo-eee!
😀
I love how you captured the movement of the grass, Tish, with so much pronounced detail. It is soothing to look at this refreshing scene. Thank you 🙂 Beautiful low-angle!
So happy this hit the spot, Paula. And I’m v. glad to provide some soothingness too.
I love the sand, nature is the best sculptor.
You are absolutely right, Gilly. The way the earth and its forces shape the place is truly wonderful.
I love the windswept grass. It’s so — poetic. I suppose that’s how it makes it into so many poems 🙂
I love the sand shot particularly, Tish, although the bending grass is also beautiful.

Lovely shots TIsh. They really capture the textures. I can almost feel the grass in my hands.
I think we humans have some atavistic memory that relates to grass – when we were hunters out on the savannah. It seems to evoke an emotional response…(passing thought).
I like that thought 😃
