Wonderland is a unique place to explore during low tide. Carefully walking on the slick and slippery boulders covered in seaweed peering into each new tide pool brings new discoveries.

On another note I discovered why I was having photo upload issues yesterday. Seems that after a year and a half of daily posts I’ve maxed out my 13 gig allotment. So I ended up having to purchase extended memory.
Now my laptop and WordPress don’t want to talk to each other tonight. Sigh, if its not one thing it’s another.

It’s advisable to look from the tide pool to the stars and then back to the tide pool again.

Beautiful post of tide pools and the life that lives in them. Did you see any sea urchin?
Hi Seeker. Alas, I didn’t see any sea urchin or sea stars. I really tried though. The rocks were quite slippery.
Tide pools are such cool places! I wish that we had them around here, but sadly, we’re not that lucky. You’re photos make me want to go there, which is usually the case with your posts.
I reduce the quality of the photos I post, to preserve disk space on WordPress. I’ve been blogging for three years, and I still have 2/3 of my space left. Considering that some one recently accused me of “spamming” by posting so many photos, I guess that’s not too bad.
That is funny about you being a spammer. You just like to maximize your posts.
This place is incredible. I hope you day you can make it there.
Beautiful photos captured . John Steinbeck is one of my favorite writers… 😉
Thank you so much Drake. So happy I was able to share one of your favorites with you.
Those pools have some unique biodiversity going on! I remember as a child playing in them in Hawaii. I learned about sea urchins and why you shouldn’t touch all of them! Who knew the cure was to pee on the wound. .. eaw, but it worked! Thanks for bringing back childhood memories! =-D
How lucky you are ! I had forgotten about the pee thing. Isn’t that also for jellyfish stings? I bet you saw some really cool things living in the tidepools in Hawaii.
Love all the textures, a beautiful world!
The textures were amazing. You would be in wonderment here. I had a hard time focusing on the details as I’m such a broad thinker. I had to task myself to think small. 🙂
Reblogged this on afifmrabbani.
Thank you so much for sharing this with your readers.
I could spend a lot of time at places like this! Terrific Em!
I bet you could ! I tell you though, you had to watch every step. The rocks were slippery!
Oh how beautiful!
I had the place to myself Cynthia. I bet you would love to explore the tide pools as I did that morning.
You have some fantastic images here Emily, I love the one with all the little things that look like eyes, I couldn’t stop staring at it.
Do you have an email address?
Little things that look like eyes…oh the snails? I saw people harvesting them. Have no idea how they planned to eat them though.
