Sandpiper Beach

I took a trip last weekend to stay at a friend's cabin on Hornby Island.  It was near a beautiful beach called Sandpiper Beach.  The beach has a lot of interesting rock formations where the ocean has smoothed and worn at the lava and sandstone rock (I believe), causing hoodo and cave type formations.


There is also an abundance of tafoni on the coast of Hornby island.  The picture below has a small example of this interesting rock formation.


I played around with longer exposures of the rock disappearing into the ocean.  I like the result.
