Frozen Suds

Hit the beach only to find it covered with up to a foot of Frozen suds. Where do frozen suds come from you might ask. Apparently they are occasionally leaked, in detergent form, from a water treatment plant upriver. The detergent in the water suds up in the wash zone and it was so cold that the bubbles froze Covering most of the exposed beach with psudo snow. I did manage a nice Meg and makos with good color. I took some ground shots of some bones being exposed from the matrix. I don't know what they are but they are big. My wading boot is in the lower portion of one of the pictures.
