Boreal Trees, Oceanside

North Atlantic, Canada Bay, Great Northern Peninsula, NL.

This scene is just a few steps away from the one in my earlier blog post: Ebb Tide.

The home-made walkway of a nearby cottage crosses some boggy turf and a narrow passage way to a rocky island; and if you face into the sun at the end of the boards, you encounter the low tide view of that previous post. Salt spray, high winds, and lack of depth of soil will prevent those trees from being little more than phenomenal shrubbery in that fabulous rock-scape.

And of course, at highest tide the water rises to just a foot below the boardwalk.
