Equinox Sunset

One photo every week in Autumn. Starting today at the Autumn equinox. It is often unclear when one season ends an another begins.

Planet. Future. Choice. Death.

January 18, 2014

The high tides and recent storm have washed alot of debris on to our beach, a staggering amount of it was small pieces of plastic. Today the local community rallied together to clean up the beach, which is such an important resource to everyone, in astonishing numbers. Who said there was no such thing as […]
