When you think of the colours you will see on a hike you generally think of various tones of brown or green, so when I set out today I tried to capture some of the brighter colours. :thumbup:
I had to throw in a knife pic and a dog pic though cos I always do !!!:D

Get yourself over here Riley then we can take that new Fallkniven of yours out to test !!!
Yeah you are very close on the flower, it is actually a Fairyslipper....I only know cos I've checked in my book !!!:D
 
Cool pics as usual. Are those starfish in the second to last picture? I've never seen them that color before. The purple one is neat.
 
I think the orange one may be a Sunstar !
It was my dog who showed me where the Starfish were !!!

The upper shot shows a couple of ochre stars. The lower picture shows a sunflower star.

Thanks for sharing the pics, pitdog.
 
By the way, if you see a sunflower star, keep looking around. Sunflower stars normally live in somewhat deeper water. The conditions that occasionally wash them up into the tidepools also wash all sorts of other odd deeper water organisms into the tidepools. There will probably be lots of stuff to discover, on those occasions.
 
wow...:eek: those are some amazing pics pitdog.....:thumbup: :thumbup: that is some beautiful country.....:eek:
