Tidal Wave is a giant water ride located at Thorpe Park in Surrey, England, UK. It was opened in 2000 and was Tussauds' first major investment in the park.
When the ride was constructed in 2000 it was the tallest water ride in Europe and retained the title until 2002, when Hydro at Oakwood Theme Park was opened. From 2006 to 2009, the ride was sponsored by Original Source, and from 2010 by Dr. Pepper.

Mont St Michele reflects in the tidal pools that surround it. The rapid tidal flow here turned this image off for the night within minutes of this capture.
A walk along the Thames from Battersey to Barnes.
Someone had taken the task of tying up all the random shoes that wash up onto this little beach. Interesting.

A surprise quick shot. I saw the light coming down on the turtle-like rock with some pretty vegetation on top and a large tidal pool foreground. I thought it could be a nice picture. I then quickly run back to my car for the camera that fortunately wasn't far away. I said surprise because I was having a leisure walk after breakfast, without my camera, when on a day trip up Fort Bragg in Mandocino County,
OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA Next to Fundy N.P. is the town of Alma, where the Forty Five River enters the bay. This shot shows the river delta and tidal flats as the tide is advancing in, about halfway.
The Bay of Fundy has huge tides wanting to see the tidal bore or incoming which is a phenomenon in these parts we headed to local spot to view. So did half a dozen others but instead of a 18" it was maybe 12" , still fascinating and you could hear it coming like a faint freight train ,BEST VIEWED SLIDESHOW@ 1 SECOND INTERVALShttp://snipurl.com/9l1o

"Another beach, another world.
Elizabeth walked along purple-tinged sand, the skiff keeping pace a few meters behind her. The skiff’s pilot, Delavar, was an old acquaintance on whose loyalty and reflexes she was more than ready to rely. Somewhere behind the navy sky the Cairns ships hung in gravity-defying non-orbit, in any emergency a screaming red-hot minute away.
The air was thick and stank of iodine. A few tens of meters to her left, the last exhausted ripples of breakers whose surf broke hundreds of meters farther away hissed into the sand. The tide was far out and on the turn. Giant oystercatchers the size of moas stalked the shallows, stabbing the sand with beaks like swords. Kilometers to her right, a row of cliffs denned the horizon.
This beach was huge, visible from space as a white crescent like a life-size drawing of a small moon. They’d called it Atlantis Flats.
The red sun loomed high in the sky, far bigger than any sun she’d ever stood beneath, but utterly dwarfed by the ringed gas giant that, gibbous, filled an eighth of the sky above the sea. It looked as though it were floating on the ocean beyond the horizon, the colors of its bands and the dark of its nightside segment and a long, wavy ink-black line from its razor-thin ring bleeding into the water."

Photos from a Sunday wandering: On a coastal stretch of the 15.4 mile Ala Kahakai Trail. Read more about the trail itself in my set description.
Here's one of a couple more panoramic shots from our D.C. trip. This was taken while on a Tourmobile, crossing the bridge on the opposite side of the Basin - the bus was moving at the time, so it's not quite as sharp as it could be, but I like the view...
