Good shot of the water flow here. The waves are certainly stirred up that is for sure. I like the black and white effect for this. Your focus and the light is good. It presents well overall.

Wow, looks the sea was pretty angry!
It has so many moods, so much power--I guess that's why I love oceans so much :) Some day I will live close enough to visit every day.
I like the black and white presentation. The mist rising off the waves is really neat.
Best of luck :)

    Oh yes sometimes the sea is angry. We are just thankful if it is just that. Thank you so much for your review and the wishes.

As far as I am concerned, this definitely qualifies as 'flowing' water. Great photograph that shows the amazing power of the ocean. This is a very good entry for the contest and I wish you all the best.

    How are you doing up there? For all I know you were hit by very bad weather and lots of rain too.

    Well I slept through it but I sleep through everything. Lots of trees blown down...I mean lots and some really big ones. Some buldings lots their roofs, lost of stores had their windows and doors blown out, and needless to say tons of water flowing in the streets. But no one was hurt.

    Seams always as a wonder if nobody gets hurt. Sorry for the damage but good to hear you are well. All the best.

Good capture of the mist and relective sunlight..having lived with tropical storms all my life this is very true and emotive..ominous almost..love the line through centre focus which enables rich tapestry of greyscale effect..great shot
