Default the power of the sea

the power of the sea

tideline
.

The rocks off Holyhead Harbour, Angelsey, N Wales as the tide rolled in and the wind blew from the North West

The crashing waves whispered words and I listened to the power of the sea

Wow Nice job Beach you literally can feel the power of the sea in your capture pounding the shore .Youhave managed to freeze that power for an instant in time. Good job

It fits beautifully Ian, and thank you so much for even looking

And the river flowed within him, and with it he was one
And the seas moved around the earth, and the earth around the sun.


cheers beach

Love the power of the waves and wind you've captured here plus the contrast of color with the golden brown rocks and blue ocean. A truly superb photo!

That is a Great breaking wave shot, I love it. We can't get anything like that around here. We're lucky to see 3 foot waves that have very little break is the best we see here.

Ah, beach (aka Steve but you'll always be beach to me!).....

I can almost hear the crash of the waves and smell the salt air. With that, I need to tell you I wish I was there.

I always enjoy seeing your captures of the wave weather they be soft rolling ones or powerful ones like this one. You seem to be able t see the moment coming and snap, you have it. This one is brilliant buddy and really does capture the power of the sea.
Excellent Work Steve.

Dave.
