Field guide No. 1520
Upside down rockfall over the sea
Rockfall, return journey.
At a white chalk cliff above the sea, a stream of boulders rises from the shore and pours up past the clifftop into the sky. Erosion, put into reverse.
Field noteChalk boulders lifting off the shore defy gravity, though each one remains very plainly a rock.
Also possible, also breaking physics
A snail’s blooming pathSnails leave slime, which grows nothing. This one plants a border at the speed of a snail.
Autumn leaf magnetA boulder can collect leaves without breaking a rule. The magnetism is only in the title.
Delayed splashWater crowns hang along a fence over a dry-looking court. The ground finished with rain; the splashes did not.
Moss arch with upward rootsMoss carpets lift off logs all the time. This one kept going and took its roots along.
