Sand patterns

I do not post many macro photos, but here is a close up of patterns in the sand on Tamarindo beach. These patterns made by the slowly receding water are a function of the gradual slope of the beach.

We have photos of the gardens in the villas on the Borromeo Islands in Lake Maggiore, Italy, posted this week on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site.

    It's a weirdly beautiful patterned shot.

    Great shot! It's like a strange topographical map. We had a group of teenagers in Costa Rica for an end of the school year trip last week. They loved it there!

    I love the color of the sand. At first I thought it was the landscape shot from an airplane.

    The patterns are interesting and a nice change of pace.

    Mother Nature is the greatest of the artists. This is wonderful! Well spotted, Dave.
