Photos - Santa Rosa Beach

[Will B]

Normally, I'm a tad hesitant about sharing photos, but since I enjoy Kurt's so much I figured I'd pass these along. I ran across them today on my online. These are from December of '05, but it's not like the beach changes that much!

Hope you enjoy them. The weather during that time made for some dramatic looks...

That much is true. The sand in the pictures is definitely the darker "fill" sand that was brought it. I haven't been down since April but noticed a change then, too...

Not neccesarily. The black sand that was deposited in layers is called ilmenite and is a heavy mineral that is naturally occurring and is the black specs you typically see in our native sand. The ilmenite is heavier then our quartz sand and stays behind after the white sand washes offshore and is commonly seen in layers after a storm as you see in your pictures. in a storm. Picture 8 shows different sequences of high wave events (younger on top), most likely Ivan in 2004, and Arlene and Dennis in 2005. Good shots!

130 pound dog? Jeez! I know how much damage my 45-pound standard poodle does when she gets revved up. Can't imagine what 130 pounds of excitement would do!
