Penarth Pier, South Wales

Rip tides are strong sea currents which push away from the shore as a strong storm is near. They are formed by the strong winds pushing water towards the shore. Tropical cyclones' winds push waves up against the shoreline even if they are hundreds of miles away, so rip tide warnings are often the first indication of a nearby hurricane.

 

If caught in Rip tides do the following

1 Keep your feet on the bottom as much as possible.

2 Remain calm if a rip current begins to pull you away from shore.

3 Regain your footing if possible.

4 Call for help immediately if you can't swim well.

5 Swim parallel to shore to get out of the current.

6 Swim toward the shore once you escape the current.

Thames Beach at low tide near Millennium Bridge.

The North Esk River is tidal at the point where it meets the Tamar. If you look closely here you can see how low the tide level has fallen. That Gothic house is called "The Art House", and is a popular backpackers' place. It was built in 1888.

Despite continuing with the development of this red series in coming days, tomorrow I will give you a little surprise for some variety.

The river Elbe flows into the North Sea. It´s tides extend to the City of Hamburg and beyond. At high tide this sandbank is overflooded.

 

Die Elbe mündet in der Nordsee. Die Gezeiten der See reichen zurück bis nach Hamburg und darüber hinaus. Bei Hochwasser ist diese Sandbank überflutet.

When the tide is out in Daniels Bay the patterns formed by the reflections on the water and the sand produce a nice abstract effect.

A full moon always creates extreme tides and beautiful tide pools at Point Lobos State Natural Reserve. A small abalone shares a tide pool with the shell of a sea urchin, a sea anemone and a few mussels.

 

Hope you have a lovely Sunday! Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments, awards and faves.

Red tide or Harmful algal blooms, occur when colonies of algae—simple plants that live in the sea and freshwater—grow out of control while producing toxic or harmful effects on people, fish, shellfish, marine mammals, and birds.

This watercolour painting is based on a sketch done in situ, during last year's visit to North Devon.

Lynmouth Harbour sits on the southern shore of the Bristol Channel, and set at the foot of a deep valley, directly below its twin town Lynton, in Exmoor National Park.

high tide, about to turn, water meandering back to the sea, rain, misty veil draped across spartina, darker skies to the north, earth sky collision, all one, in this moment.

Seasalter at low tide. The evening light enhanced the colours of the grasses and algae making it appear almost luminous . The weather-worn groyne in the foreground is a reminder of its former purpose, to stabilise the beach; a task that seems to have been abandoned.
