Think of Cairns and you immediately picture beaches and sunshine, so what better to add to the mix than nudity? Buchan Point Beach, known colloquially as Buchan's, provides nudists with an unofficial, but these days, rarely disturbed venue. Moments north of the little suburb of Buchan Point, where a driver first glimpses the breathtaking vista of beaches stretching all the way north to Port Douglas, this secluded beach beckons sun worshippers, with a big P for Parking down the bottom of the hill indicating the turn off to the beach.
The inclusion of footage of Koby surfing successfully at a turbulent time with the law had the purpose to re-channel the focus from the negative aspects of the “Bra Boys” history to the favourable events that portray them as surfing legends. Abberton was strongly promoting the moral that the “Bra Boys” as a whole, turn their disadvantage into success as the surf was their saviour. Koby Abberton was the figurehead for this storyline and by the use of his career achievements; it effectively cancelled out the negative judgements that could arise from his court case. The use of extreme long shots of the giant waves in Tahiti and Hawaii and the small surfer riding the mammoth waves acted a strong symbol. The relative size of the wave which was further emphasised by the choice of camera shot represents the amount of variables against Koby Abberton – representing the “Bra Boys”.
There are many different types of coasts that exist throughout the United States. The south shore of Long Island has a unique types of coast known as a barrier beach. Barrier beaches are long narrow land forms that are composed of sand and other lose sediments. These sediments are brought together by the actions of waves, currents and storm surges. Barrier beaches are subject to constant changes by the same forces. Sand is constantly eroded in one area an deposited in another. Barrier coasts are important for a number of reasons; they protect the mainland of Long Island from the open ocean and flooding during storms, for recreational use and the unique ecosystems which exist on barrier
The beach chairs around me wait slowly to get filled up. I am putting on the wonderful tanning oil that smells like the coffee beans my mom uses in the mornings for her coffee. There is sand everywhere: in between my toes, on the towels, and on my skin. I run into the water to rinse off, as I get in the water, the water goes in my mouth. It's almost like I took a tall glass of water, and added a jar full of sea salt to the water. I get back out of the water and the sand on the bottom of my feet feels like, with every step I take the sand is molding my foot. I get back to my beach chair and lay back down. The sun is out and beating on me like I am in a tanning bed with the lights, and they are just for me. The sky is so blue,
In the realist film, On The Waterfront, Elia Kazan offers the audience an exploration of what it means to value individual conscience in the pursuit of justice. Set across from New York City, Kazan's tense expose of organised corruption in the 1950's follows the protagonist, Terry Malloy, as he struggles to choose between his loyalties in a world filled with dishonesty and trepidation. Although it may seem that many of the characters are bound to silence by fear and corruption, Kazan implies that a strong moral presence can motivate others to help their community by exposing 'the facts' to 'the public'. Kazan suggests that poverty and corruption can lead people to live in fear of those in power, as well as how people may feel obliged to be loyal to those have helped them in the past. In addition to this, Kazan conveys that a strong moral voice can be enough to catalyse change in a community.
On the Waterfront is a classic, award-winning and controversial film. It received eight academy-awards in 1954, including best-picture and director. The director, Eliza Kazan, in collaboration with Budd Schulberg wrote the film’s screenplay. Based on actual dockside events in Hoboken, New Jersey, On the Waterfront is a story of a dock worker who tried to overthrow a corrupt union.
If you travel along the east coast of Hilo, Hawaii’s shoreline, you might find some beautiful beaches. One of these beaches, Onekahakaha, is the beach where a little girl lived, in a cliff under the rocks, wearing a crown of flowers atop her head, dancing to the sounds of the ocean waves hitting the sand. Everyone knew her, and everyone loved her. Her name was Emmely Stallion, but everyone called her Emma. People said that she could hug a stingray and not get stung. They said that she had a pet shark that was so friendly, that he was even friends with shark hunters. He even offered them a ride! Even so, the frequent rider of the shark was none other than Emmely herself. She wouldn’t wear Lycra Women’s Swimwear in the ocean, one with shorts-like
The subject of this paper is Kazan’s testimony against the communist and how it is related to one of the greatest themes in the movie “On the Waterfront”. The theme has to do with Terry Molloy breaking the “Deaf and Dumb” rule which states that nobody should talk about anything that happened in the docks. The theme also has to do with the main character Terry Molloy testifying against Johnny Friendly. Was he right to testify. Was Kazan justified in testifying before the HUAC and how did he justify his testimony? How do the acts of these men compare.
One of my favorite movies would be Teen Beach 2 by Robert Horn. I like this movie because it shows that no matter who you are you can do anything. Also, I like that there is friends that people can look up to who won’t bring them down. Then, I like the little things of romance in the movie. What makes this movie better than other movies is in my opinion the music and the dances that make the movie interesting and you can sing along with the people singing. All good movies to me have music in them with dancing and they have a little bit of romance in them to. That’s what makes them a good quality movie to me.
October is festival time in our area of the South Brunswick Islands. It is almost like Christmas - the smell of food is in the air, the sound of music and vendors selling their wares. Each booth is another world. One has spices; one has handmade jewelry, carvings, paintings, pottery, information on local real estate and so much more! Everywhere another world; around every corner another artisan. It is a magical time…….so come to the beach and enjoy!
It was a bright and sunny friday, school had just got out not 2 hours prior, and me and my family decided to head to the beach to start the weekend off before heading back to school that following monday. On our way there I realized they were heading to Waimea Beach which is a good 30 minutes from my house. I love Waimea beach, and has to be one of my favorite I’ve ever been to.

Dover Beach intrigued me as soon as I read the title. I have a great love of beaches, so I feel a connection with the speaker as he or she stands on the cliffs of Dover, looking out at the sea and reflecting on life. Arnold successfully captures the mystical beauty of the ocean as it echoes human existence and the struggles of life. The moods of the speaker throughout the poem change dramatically as do the moods of the sea. The irregular, unordered rhyme is representative of these inharmonious moods and struggles. In this case, the speaker seems to be struggling with the relationship with his or her partner.
In the poem "Dover Beach",witten in 1867 Matthew Arnold creates the mood of the poem through the usage of different types of imagery. He uses a dramatic plot in the form of a soliloquy. Arnold also uses descriptive adjectives, similes and metaphors to create the mood. Through the use of these literary elements, Arnold portrays the man standing before the window pondering the sound of the pebbles tossing in the waves as representation of human suffering. The man arrives at the vision of humanity being helpless against nature. Arnold creates the mood by suggesting mental pictures, actions, sights and sounds the man sees. Some examples are "folds of a bright girdle furled", "lie before us like a land of dreams"
