This looks like a posed picture but these shoes were washed up with other debris on the beach, not sure anyone would be wanting to wear flip-flops on a cold February morning anyway. The sea seems to claim many shoes, in large volumes; near the Dutch coast recently and famously in the Pacific Ocean in 1990 . It is not usual to find a pair so were the two "thongs" here left by mistake ? The sea can snatch a buckled shoe from your foot, as happened to my daughter as she paddled just up the coast from here.

I like your photos and also the links you are making. I also have often wondered about left shoes (I mean shoes that are left behind): also on the side of highways.
This question may have been answered by The Straight Dope Why do you always see just one shoe by the side of the road?
