Just thought I would share these amazing pictures, I'm can barely even make a plasticine snake so i am just blown away by the amount of skill and patients it must take to make these

The clever creators of these impressive sand sculptures needed more than a bucket and spade to build them.

Cool stuff dave The term impermenence surely came to mind here, and ephemeral too, until the tide rolls in!
Oh, I see they will be up all summer, guess that's why some of them are under a tent.
Always enjoy the creative endeavors, and I really like sculptures of people.
Some of these remind me of some other sculpture work by/in the sea that will outlast these:

I visit Spain every summer and see people doing sand sculptures, they are amazing. The photo's don't do them justice (although they are impressive too).

Aaahhhhhhh, good memories.

Thanks for sharing

Wow, those are remarkable, the human species never fails to amaze me.
