Debris

Walking along Eaglehawk Neck beach today revealed just how violent the recent waves had been. It was littered with bull kelp that had been wrenched from the rocks they had clung to and flung onto the beach in heaps. It was this bit of human rubbish that caught my lens eye though, looking very plucky and defiant as it mimics the natural world with unrelenting plastic flexibility. Pity it doesn’t have the degradable qualities of the bull kelp, or indeed the renewable qualities of the seaweeds tangled in its plastic reach.
