A coconut that lay decomposing on the beach looked like a monk's head with just the bordering hair remaining but no face left.

An abandoned shoe with straps still intact lay among driftwood and stones. Its only companion was a lone plastic spoon. One can understand losing a shoe overboard, but why would anyone discard a plastic spoon into the ocean?

A plastic bottle had washed up onto the beach and appeared to still be filled with some of its original liquid.

The sole of a sandal with its straps long ago vanished lay atop twigs and stones. The surface of this sole had aged into an interesting pattern.

A boot's heel lay partly buried in sand. A hard plastic tab had once been used to attach it to the underside of a boot.

An old flip-flop sole had landed upright among rocks. Its hole no longer sported a strap but the surface still exhibited two roses.

Although not technically litter, footprints do spoil the perfect surface of sand. Here the impressions of two bare feet crossed diagonally the wind swept pattern atop the sand.

An PFD (Personal Flotation Device) had washed up on shore. Either someone fell overboard and became dis-attached from his/her PFD, or this PFD was accidently or intentionally tossed overboard.

A short length of wooden plank, milled smooth but now cracking as it dried out in the sun, lay atop a random scatter of driftwood chunks.

A purple plastic ball was well on its way to breaking up into smaller and smaller pieces. Here, partly filled with sand it had collapsed inward upon itself.
