Swallowed by the Tides by

The shipwreck of the S. S. Dicky on a Sunshine Coast Beach in Queensland, Australia. A 40 ton steamer ran aground in 1893. The sea has gradually carved away at it after over 110 years of the waves washing over it. A glorious sunrise helped illuminate it as the tides began to come in.

    Beautifully taken. The stillness of the wreck and the movement of the water. Great.
