Liminal Shore

Liminal Shore
The Sunday Challenge: Liminal Space

Sight and Sound: Pictures and Music
"There's a Hole in the Bucket" with Harry Belefonte and Odetta
youtu.be/ElLpKewnxp4

I chose a shore photograph as an example of liminal space. A beach can be land and lake/ocean at the same time. It is wet but it is land. The ocean gives up its power at the shoreline but also exerts its strength pushing the boundaries.

On the land we attempt to harness and channel the water for our use. The ocean or lake is resistant to that control.

Special life lives on the shore that exists nowhere else.

Plenty of water but there is less of it this year as we have gone weeks without rain until just this week.

Love the buckets! A very good idea for liminal space which didn't enter my head- now I see it it's so obvious:-)

Good observation, I did not think about that. One could excavate a lot of sand with those buckets. :)

People making their living out of sea are often dealing with the concept of liminal spaces, I think =) Sea gives and sea takes...
