Exploding Nature

I said I would sporadically post more shots from that great storm at Porthleven, and here is one. This time shot with the 17-40mm lens. I liked the light in this one, and that exploding plume of water. I felt it caught the energy involved and the wide angle captures a sense of scale and context.

This particular wave actually went higher still but went into a thin whispy shape and lost its form, so I stuck with this. It is worth noting this wave covers a huge 3 story house behind it, set high up on the cliff. I don't know how tall this is but the houses on the left look especially small. They must be 30ft approx so work it out!

Anyways, I hope you like it and thanks for your comments and faves, I really appreciate it.
