These are photo's of the beach down our street a couple of months ago, compared with how the beach looks now after the storms, taken yesterday from around the same spot.
(Please excuse the badly exposed photo's. My little snappy camera is on it's last legs.)
BEFORE:
This is looking south, with the tree that has the rope swing on it. It's a landmark on our beach. Everyone likes to have a go.
AFTER:
There's the poor tree with the rope swing now!
BEFORE:
This is the other direction from the same spot, turned to face north.
AFTER:
And here it is now. I can't even describe the erosion. It's surreal! There's Mr You kindly modeling to give a better idea of the scale of those walls of sand. The beach and land has been eaten away so deeply, all the trees were left laying battered and bare on the beach.
EEEEEEEEEEK Climate Change!
