Before and Afters

I love the visual perspective on changing coasts, and can't resist posting this one. Back when I worked for Surfrider Foundation I put together this little photo monitoring project for the Elwha (see page 6 here, for example). As part of the program a few sites were established in the Elwha estuary for repeat photography. A few days ago I took McHenry and Theo for a walk down on the nice new bar down at the river mouth:

and took the opportunity to snap some photos from one of the sites that we photographed back in 2004-2006. Here is the result:
