Hi Andy!

Nice dramatic sky behind the rock!

Best Wishes, HFF and a good weekend.

Is there a Carrot Island near Asparagus Island....?

It would be nice to think so but 'fraid not. However there is a lot of sea carrot (same family but not renowned for eating quality, either for rabbits or humans!). I fed it successfully to donkeys but the wild horses turned their noses up at it!

Wonderful coastal scene.

What a great shot of this wonderful area

A deeply impressive and evocative vision ... those imposing rocks jumping out troubled waters against a dramatic sky!
Have a Nice Weekend , Andy!

Thank you Bea, I like the fact that the atmosphere is different each time I return.

To you too and thank you.

The leaning tower of Asparagus. I wonder if some day far from now the sea will eat so much that it will crumble.

Nothing is more certain Jean!
Should a Bronze age fisherman return miraculously to this coast, I doubt he would recognize anything except the inland hill shapes.

Thanks, Andy ! Have a very nice weekend, too !

You too Andy , good shot!

Great shot Andy. Have a super weekend.

That's an impressive perspective Andy - it gives a much better idea of how big Asparagus Island is. A cracking shot.

Fantastic!

A brilliant capture Andy.

Wise man... you know all too well you don't play with an incoming tide !

Even though I buy a pocket-sized copy of the latest Tide Times (the first thing I do on my return), I check the weather conditions as well, Pam; a storm out to sea, for example, can alter the forecast height of the tides. A difference of two feet can be critical at sites such as this.
These days I find that I miss the very lowest tides due to lack of opportunity. The few free walking days I might have don't necessarily correspond with clement weather, low tide at the right tine, that sort of thing. In fact I don't think I have done my favourite shore-line rock-hopping route since before I met my girlfriend, so 2012. I once explained it to her in excited detail and put her off the idea of walking it with me for good!!!! :o(

Yep... I never took chances.

I used to LOVE rock hopping.. used to do it in rivers too !

Sigh.......... time passes.

Indeedy. :o(

Many thanks, Doug.
You too have a good week!
Andy

A fine image! Maybe on another visit you will have the chance to cross to the island.

Not any hostel on Asparagus Island ,to sleep before the low tide ?

Ha Ha, Marie-france! I could rest on the grass (alas no asparagus - the springiness of the bush might be comfortable as bedding!!)

Ha ha ! I suppose yes ,Andy !
