Photo Hunters Theme: Wooden

Today's theme is "wooden" so I thought I'd post a few shots from Centennial Beach and the Boundary Bay Dyke area, both parts of Boundary Bay Regional Park.

1. The wooden walkway over the marshy area of the inner regions of Centennial Beach.

2. A woodsy area near the above photo where you will always be able to catch sight of wild bunnies. Stay alert and walk quietly.
3. Driftwood washes up on the beach and workers drag it down to a more secluded area of the beach.
4. Piles and piles of driftwood can be seen all along the beach.
5. The day I took all these photos (last April) I noticed these older teens busy building something with the driftwood. They'd been working since that morning building what they called "The Ark." You should have seen it!
6. More driftwood washes ashore off the Boundary Bay Dyke. This was last weekend.
7. And more driftwood off the Boundary Bay Dyke looking towards Tsawwassen and Point Roberts in Washington state.

Hope you enjoyed my take on "wooden" and I'm looking forward to seeing all of yours.

  1. Beautiful set of photographs for the wooden theme. I love driftwood so I particularly enjoyed seeing so much of that in your post. I would have enjoyed watching the teens work on their ark. For that matter, I would enjoy building a driftwood ark although I fear I am not great with building. Sounds like fun. I hope you have a good weekend.

  30. I love driftwood. i once saw a television programme about a couple who lived out in the wilds of Canada (I think) and set up their own business collecting large pieces opf driftwood and selling them in posh stores all over the world as expensive garden structures. Collecting driftwood is my ideal job!

  32. Loads of "wooden" pictures. That walkway is incredible - looks like it goes on forever! And I've never seen so much driftwood in my whole life. Where does it all come from?
