Description
Stump Pass Beach State Park is right on the Gulf of Mexico in Englewood, Florida. This view is along the Gulf. Erosion and salt water intrusion have killed many of the trees. Some have been cut down leaving stumps behind. Others will eventually succumb to a storm and fall into the salty waters. In the meantime their skeletons get bleached by the sun, offering a view more reminiscent of a swamp than a Florida beach.
There is beauty to be found in the eerie sadness of this scene, a tranquility unmatched by anything made by man.
