Mike Page says his images of the spectacular patterns capture a moment in time.

Aerial photographer Mike Page, 81, has taken more than 130,000 images in his career and is still flying"The base pattern of the Australian tree is very similar to what we have here but the colour is very different.

The channels work on both the incoming and outgoing tides. On the incoming tide the water rushes up the channels and the twists and turns slow and divide the flow. That allows sediment to drop down and create the mudflats. On the ebb, or outgoing, tide, the water doesn't drain off equally but gathers in smaller channels caused by bumps and hollows. These form a set of semi-permanent channels which join up, so you end up with a pattern that looks like the branches of a tree.

Miniature trees of life often visible on North Norfolk sandy beaches as each tide ebbs away. Some quite big, others tiny. Each exquisite.

This is both beautiful and fascinating. Is it me or are people getting more and more cynical? I ask because of some of the responses to this thread.

People discovering things that have always been there.🙄
