Friday Photo 2: Sand Patterns= Nature Vs. Nurture!

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Napa Consultants DRE00893924

One of the many things we enjoy on our long beach walks are the sand patterns made by the winds, the incoming tide and the outgoing tide.  If you walk on them, these shapes are hard like a rock and one would have to stomp on them to flatten them.  It takes a while even when you see them in the water to dissolve into powder.

 

"Nature's patterns sometimes reflect two intertwined features:

fundamental physical laws and environmental influences. It's nature's

version of nature versus nurture."

Brian Greene (Physics Professor)

Nature creates such perfect patterns.  I see it sometimes in your Farmers Market photos.  For example those Romanesco Cauliflowers you posted a few days ago.

I think I am in need of a nice, long beach walk! Your patterns in the sand are lovely; I would not have guessed the sand was hard there.

I love what nature is able to do all on its own and I often just sit back and watch it happen, so amazing!

Mother nature at its best, Alexandra. Certainly your picture made me wish I had a beach to take a walk on today.

Hello Alexandra and Ron - your post and the photo you include remind me of a junior high humanities class where the teacher spoke of the Japanese art of raking sand.  Although it has been years/decades since that class the memory remains quite vivid and I recall using the technique at home in our yard.

Hi Ron and Alexandra- it is a reminder to me that every day at the beach is a new day. Mother Nature never disappoints.

Thank you very much for sharing your photographs. I miss the oceanfront walks that inspired me for many years.
