Tsunami

Tsunami

“The warning came too late…..no place to hide. We were down by the beach taking happy holiday snaps when the ocean started to recede. It took me a moment or two to realise what was about to happen. Everyone started to panic…..I could hardly hold a thought in my head with the sound of my heart beating and the adrenalin pumping through my veins. Then I remembered the cave we discovered at the end of the beach yesterday. That would be our only hope as we started to run. As we entered the cave I took one last look as the Tsunami hit….”

Macro photograph taken from a palm tree, overcast day, camera set on aperture priority.

Macro photography of bark, rocks and flowers are my passion. Always looking for that special ‘something’ thats a little bit different. Hope you enjoy my story and photograph!

    Brilliant photography Kathie, gorgeous textures & colours blended by nature. Excellent story too, sadly I don’t think the cave would have been your salvation. I suspect it would have been your doom. Sad so many people died in exactly the situation you described & faced with the very choices in your story.
