While at this beach, this little stretch of rocks just was starting to pop above the surface. [Larger: 1744x1308]

The tide was going out so quickly, changes could be seen by the minute. [Larger: 1744x1308]

And now not too much later, there's a whole lot more of those rocks showing. [Larger: 1744x1308]
