The mystical looking Boulders of Moeraki just watching and waiting.
If you wish you can listen to a "Roadside Story about the Moeraki boulders" HERE
It takes less than 4 minutes and you will hear the correct pronunciation of 'Moeraki' :)

I have heard of these before. Great shot and lighting.

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Lightfoot 1967
I too admire the lighting in this shot Lyn and of course am drawn to these mysterious boulders.

I love these shots you get of these strange boulders, fascinating part of nature. This capture with soft hues is superb! tigs=^..^=

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
Lyn, I've checked-out the link and have read: "In Māori tradition the remarkable spherical boulders on Moeraki beach are eel pots, or baskets of kūmara (sweet potato) washed ashore from the Ārai-te-uru voyaging canoe. To scientists the boulders are concretions, formed around 60 million years ago from sediment and calcite."
Perfect capture of this natural phenomenon!

Nature provides many such scenes. This one is especially beautiful, as if an artist carefully placed each boulder to create this balanced array. A great capture.

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.
Having seen a variety of views of these "Moyer-ack-ee" boulders, Lyn (yup, I watched the video and, actually, the narrator says the name almost at the beginning, a couple times), I have to wonder how long it will be before you succumb to Manic Monday, Wacky Wednesday, or Freaky Friday and draw some low-lidded eyes on them (particularly at this angle), just above the sand, making them look like long-lost (you wish they would stay that way) relatives, rising out of the sea to visit for a month.
