unexpected

among the many things I did not expect to find at the beach was a large flowerpot, and a very West Coast one at that

odder still, the log to the left sports an enigmatic political message referencing former US president Bush and Canadian prime minister Harper

Nice shot of this pleasant waterside scene, David.
Love the crisp colours and sharp details. *V*

This is such a wonderfully beautiful, strong image, David. A superb composition.

David, this is such a stunning image. Who knows the thought about the message. Some great color. I see that you manage to get a surfer kite in the image, too. Great job. V.

Interesting find on a beach....love that unique flower pot....perhaps Bush and Harper had once set on that log :) V

Maybe implying they are 'dead wood'!? Why ever it is there it is an interesting and colourful take.

Makes a colorful foreground for the scene. It does seem odd to see flowers this time of year and I'm baffled by the Harper/Bush thing. Beautiful image though.

I like that someone went to that much trouble to make a natural, yet enduring pot. Great picture.

Great find and agree with Anitta! The flowers at the bottom are especially poignant! Lovely shot, David! V

I also think that it is a memorial for somebody. Very unusual setup. A great find. V

Interesting ,unusual and attractive. I agree with the suggestions it looks like a memorial of some kind.

A cool find on the beach. Well photographed with this background.

A colourful find David. The 'flowerpot' maybe a memorial to someone lost at sea?

How nice to see flowers! I can still see the kite surfer's sail. An interesting political message.
Jim Coffman23-Mar-2013 17:38
A very pleasing image indeed!
Helen Betts23-Mar-2013 17:30
What a beautiful scene, very nicely captured! It's interesting that there were tulips left at the flowerpot; could it be some kind of memorial? V.

Very nice shot - apart from the political graffiti
