Amazing photo!! I love the way the sunlight is breaking through the distant clouds over the hill/mountain drawing you into the scene! And the rough water coming up to the viewer!

Steve this is something I have never seen! Wow that Mother nature is sure impressive and I'm so glad you were able to share it with us! Excellent action, crisp, clear and those rays are an added bonus to an already amazing shot. Bravo!

    Yes Mother Nature was very impressive that day. I had never seen anything like this before. I shot a lot of photos of these waves. Thank you again for your review Jodi Kay ~ Steve

Love the presentation of this rather complex scene. The light shining on the wave and on the mountains in the background are nicely balancing the soft features with the sturdy showing rocks in the front of the photograph.
Beautiful sky with imaginative clouds and overall pleasing presentation Steve!
Thank you for sharing.

Nice timing to catch the wave breaking on the rocks. Well back lit to bring out the details too. Great details in the sky too. The clouds are fantastic.

Hey there again Steve!
Another great photo and sadly I just used up my last six on your last photo haha. The colors and lighting are a pleasure to view. I like how you have captured the rectangular rock in the foreground. Awesome depth that is shown here, well done.

    Thanks Brady. The rating is not as important as the fact that you liked it ~ Steve

I think the backlight makes this a tad more interesting in what i think maybe a larger wave would have been better,sometimes you have to make the best of something that you witness,i also think the more you see this image the better it grows on you.
I feel if this was in a gallery you would view it as you walked by,but then go back on it to take another view...Brian

    Thanks Brian. Yes you are right. I have been drawn to relook at this scene several times. It does grow on you.

You're on a roll today, Steve, with another superior shot. The composition is exquisite with every element in perfect perspective. Yet, it is the lighting that takes this to another level both in the clouds and the glistening of those wave tips. Sensational! Ed,

    I'm making you use all your six's Ed. LOL

    Yes this was truly a unique set of circumstances. I very much enjoyed shooting these waves. There are more that I will post as time goes on.

    Thank you so much Ed for your details and artistic review and Very Generous rating. Thank you my friend ~ Steve

    So very welcome, Steve. I live vicariously through many of your travel photos since we cannot travel like that anymore due to Pat?s severe arthritis.

    Sorry about Pat's condition. I will be your travel guide as best I can Ed. ; )
