The last smoldering embers of clouds outline an ever darkening sky over the ocean at South Trigg beach.

Clouds illuminated by a sun on the brink of setting above South Trigg beach.  The sky begins to lose its clarity and this is replaced with a haze.

There’s something almost hypnotic about the relentless ebb and flow of the ocean with each passing wave.  As you quickly learn living on the western edge of a continent, no two sunsets are the same and the same goes for each break of the wave; the ocean is  sufficiently random that you never quite know where it will go, or what it will do next.  South Trigg has a protruding sandbar which ensures interesting patterns and breaks.

A well weathered advisory sign adorns the ocean’s edge at South Trigg Beach.  Those playing at home have possibly seen it on this site before, quite some time ago!

Proof that too much vignetting is never enough (sorry Ian).

Coastal grasses drift gracefully in the late afternoon breeze.  The grasses keep the wandering dunes of the Swan Coastal Plain at least somewhat stable in the South Trigg Beach area.

I’ve been on a training course on the East Coast this past week where Internet access is apparently expensive ($24.95/day?) hence the lack of photos.  Back to one’s regular schedule from today.

The balanced form of a succulent’s flower spike.

The cabbage like form of this succulent is mirrored by the extension of the flower spike.  The beauty of repetition in nature.

Corn flowering against the back fence; it’s a bit higher now and quite a few ears are coming along nicely!

A vibrant succulent creeper in full bloom.

Succulent flowers reveal the first hint of their colour as they prepare to fully open.
