Patterns

When I downloaded some picture I took at Sunset Beach last night, several of them grabbed my attention.

Love the ripples of "suds" churned up by the waves.

And the patterns caused by the stiff wind from the west 

butting up against the tide trying to retreat from the shore.  

Love the reflections of the setting sun as well.

I did a double take and walked closer to look at this tree trunk.

That strong west wind had blown the white, powdery sand up on it,

making it look like it was a layer of snow.  

Neat.  

Really neat.

In fact, all three photos were really happy accidents.
