Magnificent place for an artist to live. The “sea sculpture” looks so Zen, like a bonsai, which has been carefully manipulated to exhibit itself to perfection. It’s places like this that make you understand how nature can influence a person’s mind so that perception is altered by the mere clarity its memory conjures. I think you’d be a very different person after you’ve scaled those cliffs and looked out over that vista.

The roots growing “naked” over the rock begs for an artist. I can truly understand why you travel with a sketch book. It also begs for a novelist to trip into the world of imaginings and write a St Martins “Lord of the Rings” type saga.

What a spectacular place and your photos and description do it a very special justice. Obviously, the local tourist association should look into paying you a very hefty commission - the entire Hive community will be booking out local guest houses; they have you to thank.

That is some really outstanding and beautiful area up there, and lots of places to explore. And yes, one must be extremely careful not to get caught in the cave unawares. An old hairy screw? Wherever did you find that! lol.
Those last photos, wouldn't you love to be out there sitting up on top of there somehow? You could use a drone, and you can get some amazing shots that way.
Awesome post @nineclaws!!!

the place looks beautiful, just my brain can't compute sea that is cold :D i am probably programed that way (sea = summer = hot = swimming)

that rock on last few photos looks like someone was rock stacking and just planted a tree on top of it :)

get sucked out to sea so easily, providing one pays attention to the undertow.

one day i will probably go somewhere and drown because of my brain programing of how sea works :D

that water moves more then 3m in a day. i will have to stick with montenegro and greece :)

i had Vancouver on the list before all this (friend lives on boat there) so who knows :D

Damn you, now I want to go there! Ok, so in truth it's not totally your fault, just mostly.

Great snaps, great information and you better be around to be my guide!

The swing of that tide is amazing, sounds like something I'd like to see first hand. I envisage a picnic of fish feasting up top whilst the tide rolls in below.

Seems like somewhere I'd probably feel quite comfortable - colder than I'm used to - but that's ok.

Oh yeah, cold water isn't so good for obvious reasons. But no sharks is a good thing, here one redesignateds oneself as a shark biscuit the moment one dips a toe in the water.

And the bears? Yeah, we'll be good mates I think, Snuggle up for warmth.

From the looks of things, the agate would be a better skipper than the pyrite. I might've like the sketch the most. Sacred eh.

Yay! 🤗

Did you carve that sprouting lentil, or was it just an incredible coincidence that the agate formed like that?

Well, I'm off to go searching for an agate that naturally looks like a sprouting lentil. Should be a fairly simple quest, see you in several hundred years.

Nature is incredible to creat such beautiful places. Tks four your effort taking those last 4 pictures. Yes indeed looks like bonsai sculpture.

another great post nine. my mother's great grandfather was the keeper of the lighthouse at baddeck on cape breton island. his son used to sail boats built in the area down to new england to deliver them to buyers. and eventually settled in boston. once many years ago my mother, sister and i went up to visit the area stopping a good while in the bay of fundy. wonderful places.

I'm surprised you didn't stay, that place is so much better than the city :) You'll go back one day :)

I never thought I would see the day where we need a shot to enter a store!!! This still feels like some sci-fi movie or book...

!PIZZA !ALIVE

@nineclaws! You Are Alive so I just staked 0.1 $ALIVE to your account on behalf of @wrestlingdesires. (10/10)

lol, check out mine - The Creation

We really don't want to go there!

Maybe try aaa story based on the pictures?

I can see why this place is so special to you. It seems very rugged, wild, peaceful, so still, and what wonderful treasures she holds in her heart for others to discover. I was amazed at how high the tide comes in and saddened by the rate of erosion, but that is just nature coursing its way. Thank you for sharing such an inspiring post 💗

PIZZA!
