[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I have often walked around the headland at low tide that separates Opito Bay from Dove Bay without properly seeing these strange vertical lines of rock formation that run into the water. I learned recently that they are the hand of man not God and in fact were placed there to become oyster beds during the great depression of the 30s. There can be little doubt that the opulence that prevails today was not the situation in those times

Hi Norman, this is an interesting photo, great note.

Hey old man!
I know this place! Interesting diagonal lines in the rocks leading out to the back of the image. I think you could afford to increase that saturation a bit to bring out the colour.
Hugs and kisses
Karen
