Good ol' sand doesn't stay around for anything, even when a tree has called it home. Shifting goes with sands like peas and carrots. Seems that sand has with it an inherent impermanence that dirt doesn't get. Those roots are like lost dreams the oaks had for a higher tide line. Time and tide wait for no man. I really enjoyed your captures @liberty-minded. Good eye.

Very poetic captures. Plants in general and oaks in a stately manner show how they have to choose wisely where to lay roots as they only have that one shot. They rely on those roots for decisions about what to do above ground much more than i used to know about . That aspect lends much depth to the statement made to me by those "soilless roots" images you captured. Really fine.
