Landscape comes alive

By eyes4earth @eyes4earth · On May 16, 2012

“A few years ago I was on a secluded beach in the Tsitsikamma area, when I became acutely aware of repeated patterns in the sand along the edge of the water. There was a distinctly rhythmic quality in the way the sand dried out with each wave that retreated back into the ocean. It was accompanied by a rhythmic throbbing sound of the ocean, which was echoed by the cliffs along the beach. It felt as if the whole beach was pulsating and as if all the separate elements, the water, the sand and cliffs, were all part of one entity. I had never before or since had the same experience, even though this is a place I visit once a year. It feels as if I had a glimpse of how alive the landscape is.”
