“Ocean Floor”
Description:
Hopewell Rocks Provincial Park lies along the Bay of Fundy in New Brunswick, where the bay’s long, narrowing funnel shape amplifies the tides. Exceeding 45 feet, this region experiences the largest tidal range on Earth. At low tide, the ocean retreats to reveal expansive muddy tidal flats and sea stacks formed from layered sandstone and gravel-rich sedimentary rock.
Story:
The ocean floor is muddy.
The ocean floor is brown.
But this morning, the ocean floor became art!
No footprints anywhere:
none by man, none by beast.
Water gathered on land
and traced channels through soft mud,
undoing the smoothing work of the tides.
Water shaped it.
Sunlight revealed it.
I was there to record.
