Description
One of the last trees standing at Boneyard Beach enduring the tides at Hunting Island State Park, South Carolina.
The boneyard beach is gone now, a 2-mile stretch of popular Hunting Island State Park near its iconic lighthouse that was one of the sought-out natural features.
The bleached fallen trees that made the beach scenic have been bulldozed and left in piles.
Boneyard beaches is the popular term for the driftwood or weathered remains of shoreline trees that have fallen from an eroding maritime forest. They are often strewn like a sculpture of limbs as they gradually wash into the ocean.

Congratulations on your win in the Branches contest Jurgen, excellent image ! ! The range of soft color tones, the texture of the tree and sand coupled by a lighting situation that is not producing any harsh shadows work together beautifully to create a striking image that you had a good eye to see and capture. Very nice work ! ! ! !
