When I got to Lahinch on Monday, it looked as though it had been snowing. The whole beach was covered in this foam stuff which consisted basically of sea water and sand from what I can see (look, I got absolutely covered in it). It was fascinating. Because of the way it was blowing up over the sea wall, it looked, on occasion, as though it were snowing. Kids had a ball in it, although I’d imagine their mothers was groaning at the mess they were making of themselves.
What fascinated me was the way the foam behaved. It looked very gloopy; a bit like condensed milk.
and it broke like waves.
I mean, look at this for a tube….
The splashes are incredible. I remember the last time there was a storm I payed a similar trip and I was mesmerised by the shapes being created. At the time I looked it up and apparently the ingredients are ocean impurities such as salts, chemicals, dead plants, decomposed fish and a pinch of seaweed excretions. Yum!
Yum indeed given that everything got covered, car, jacket, 3 lenses and the camera….urghhh
I love the first shot it reminds me of cream on top of Hot Chocolate…
