Springe tide in March 2010

This was four years ago; the following year a really high tide

finally lifted the remains of that big wharf off its piers and carried

it away. The high and low tides are called springes, though some

people call the lowest tides, like this one, the nips.



These two pictures were taken on expired Fuji Sensia slide film in the

Rollei 35TE. In lining the pictures up for this, I had two big white

areas that I very roughly faked image into. I didn't try very hard at

that and, to reduce the appearance of fakery and joinery, I noised the

edges of the picture substantially.
