Due to the fact that the wind comes almost from West, the waves become the same direction, from W to E, and wash the sand away
To stop/make less this washout effect, to break the stronght of the waves - that's the reason of this pillars. In the northern part of Zeeland there are beaches , many km long, and there are this pillars, always two lines together, repeating so about 500m. Depending from tide/low tide you can see 2,0m or nothing from them.
Westkapelle (51°32′N, 3°26′E) is a village in the municipality of Veere on the island Walcheren, in the province Zeeland of the Netherlands. On 1 January 2005, it had a population of 2,671. Westkapelle is on the westernmost tip of Walcheren and is surrounded by the sea on three sides.
Westkapelle is mainly known because of its lighthouse, standing prominently at the entrance to the village. This tower is the remains of a church that burned down in the 18th century. In the 19th century, a light was added to the top so that it could serve as a lighthouse.
Westkapelle was a separate municipality from 1816 until 1997, when it was merged with Veere.

Kayak in a breaker at Freshwater Bay. I chanced upon this guy (with a couple of other kayaks) during a walk along the cliff-top. A beautiful afternoon, with wonderful sea colours!
This is a Fuji X-Pro2 raw file converted in Iridient Developer - it does seem much less noisy than LR CC manages at big magnification - with better colours (on a sample of not many trials yet...)

Couldn't resist taking another of the same breaker especially as the sky was so inviting. I think this one works a little better in colour.
Please scuse the quality of this photo but it is bout 42 years old. The Trail-breaker is/was manufactured by Rokon located in Keene, New Hampshire, USA . They still make em. As you can tell by the chain up front it was two wheel drive and I found it would take you anywhere you had guts enough to go and even beyond. Each wheel was hollow and would carry 5 gallons of liquid. I had 5 gal of gas in front and 5 gal of water in the rear. The thing would float as I found out while fording a river once. It literally floated out from under me. No problem, just swam it to shallow water stood it up and one kick started it and away we went. I climmed a trail once , very steep it was and found when I came back down I had to walk it down as the rear end wanted to leave the trail. Yup, that steep. Dangerous machine however as it would go places that spelled trouble. Lord but I loved that machine !! LOL
This was an interesting Macro Monday challenge. I've not tried macro shots of painting before. The result looks very grainy, but that is definitely the paint, not my ISO noise! This is a close up of a quite large painting by Naomi Walker, a Northumbrian artist: northeastartcollective.co.uk/product-category/artists/nao... . The whole painting is a view of Dunstanburgh castle at night and this is a part of a breaking wave on the shoreline. She has thickly layered the paint to give 3 dimensions to the waves and used the gold for the wave catching the light from the night sky.
Shot with a 55mm F2.8 manual lens at F16 with tripod, remote shutter and overhead room lighting to catch the wave glints.

The Old Breaker, another shot from last night at Allonby on the Cumbrian coast. A lovely glow in the sky giving some colour to the clouds.
This is looking South down towards the South island of NZ as the sun set on a typical sunny summer Saturday. Colours are almost entirely untouched.

This was taken at Rye Beach. I shot this at 30 seconds using the Lee ND 10 (big Stopper).
Converted in PS and in channel mixer I duplicated Agfa black and white film.
I have found the Big Stopper to be a better ND filter than the B&W ND110 I was using. No color cast like the B&W and the colors really pop with it.
View in Lightbox.
Panoramic scene taken with the iPhone.
Almost all of the images in this set are taken on the right side of the image and look out to the left over the breakers to Lake Michigan.
At this area of coast, there is a beach along the lake for most of the distance between here and downtown Chicago. The beaches are bordered by a bike and running path. Lake Shore Drive runs parallel to the paths. This particular section does not have a beach, so the paths run along the lake.
Have as good of a Monday as you can!

Ever wonder how all that seaweed gets onto the shore?

Apparently back in the day of wooden boats and real winters, I would accumulate along the Delaware river and destroy the boats. This is one of several ice breakers designed and built in the mid 1800's to create a safe harbor for the boats.
While I was waiting for the Rock Pipits to appear, I was able to capture these breakers near the Staffin slipway. The sea conditions were quite strange. There was very little wind and the sea was a flat calm but obviously there must have been a swell as these breakers were crashing on to the offshore rocks.
Circuit Breaker (right) is an evolution of Ryan H's Phasor (left). Built for round 5 of the Starfighter Telephone game.
Advanced alien technology puts delicate mechanics on the outside. While this provides acute sub-wave sensitivity, Circuit Breaker scout ships must rely on their quick maneuverability provided by retractable retro-thrusters, in order to survive forays in hostile space.
Also because of advanced alien technology, Circuit Breaker ships have laser saw fangs instead of any ranged weapons or countermeasures.
