Into the Throes of a Rogue Wave

In a defiant act of synchronicity on an otherwise relatively calm surface, rises from the abyss, a towering rogue wave! The two gulls that I was training my lens on were almost taunting it, as they swooped directly into it' path, and then in a harrowing split second, pulled up to where their feet practically dragged over the crest! In the next seconds as they soar past it, they're suddenly a good ten feet above the surface, as they continue onward swooping and gliding on the steadily pressing air currents.
