I'll be doing an abstract photo of an everyday object for the next five days. I plan to enter them into a photo contest at Popular Photography.
The way the evening light brought out the shape of the rocks at Mosquito Beach. This rock was sandstone.
Look carefully at the section of rock forming a dark vertical line about 1/3 of the way from the right side of the photo. It is very wavy compared to the other rock. I noticed that it looked like the same shape the underwater sand takes at the Sleeping Bear Dunes. Later I read that this pattern was actually formed by sand that was once an ocean bed. It was covered by the other layers of sandstone, but eventually it was exposed as the upper layers broke away.
