This beach on the edge of the Tasman Sea was covered with driftwood. The details in the lines and crevices made a stark contrast with the sand and the clouds above.

While driftwood may appear dead, each piece has a story to tell. Harsh waves and sun leave cracks and scars that tell a story of survival, ebbing and flowing with the tides.
