In response to The Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge: Time.
Nature shows time in so many ways. To me weathered rocks or rock formations, mountains and sand (rock ground down over millennia) remind us of time and how much of it these rocks have seen.
Pancake rocks at Punakaiki, South Island of New Zealand
Weathered and washed away rocks near Parakeet Bay, Rottnest Island near Perth
Wave Rock, 14 metre high and about 110 metre long granite rock southeast of Perth, Western Australia
Weathered rocks with shells attached to them
Rocks and moss at a local beach near Perth
Namib Desert near Swakopmund Namibia, another favourite of mine. The Namib desert is believed to be the oldest in the world (around 55 million years old).
2000 year old Bushmen rock painting called “White Lady” at Brandberg, Namibia
Cape Point, Cape Town South Africa
Table Mountain, Cape Town South Africa, a personal favourite
Rock Finger in northwest Namibia measuring 35 metres tall and standing on a hill. It’s made of sandstone conglomerate and remained after the surrounding Ugab Terrace washed away thousands of years ago.
Tiny little rolled up balls of sand deposited on the beach by hermit crabs as they dig their holes on Cable Beach, Broome, northwest Australia

Awesome! I am from NZ, and from the West Coast near the Pancake rocks so recognsed them straight away! I used a picture of the desert near Swakopmund too this week! Really enjoyed your post as it bought back memories of many of my travels and has given me some new place to visit too! I would love to visit Wave rock!

Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it! Wave Rock is quite something, as are the Pancake Rocks. I really enjoyed that part of the South Island, it’s very scenic.

Dankie, ja Wave Rock is ongelooflik, my foto laat dit nie tot sy reg kom nie. Ek hou ook baie van die sandkorreltjies. Dankie vir die inloer.
