It looks similar to driftwood to me. Which means it came from upstream
If it’s a real photo.
That's the ocean, there is no upstream
I don’t think that’s the ocean man, lol. It’s at least a small inlet or something. And where are there mountains that tall visible from the ocean shore?
Dude, I live in this zone. It's called coastal BC
Okay cool. But the water in the photo looks like a lake, not ocean, maybe a bay or something protected by a peninsula?
The entire coast of bc looks like this for hundreds of kms. It's all very fjord like. If I was gonna pull a random place outta my ass, I'd guess the desolation sound area. Google image search will show you lots of similar looking country.
No I believe you… I was arguing I thought this was a real photo and not ai lol
It won't be long until we can't tell at all, it seems.
Yea it is getting crazy.
You're right the water doesn't look super oceany, but the wet rocks in the back make me think it's tidal.
Lol, now I want to find that exact place in Google earth. But I don't think I have the time.
