Sudden Shower
As all who shoot ocean scenes know, the wave action can be quite unpredictable and sudden. This image is the second of 3 I took during this particular series of incoming waves. The first was a test shot. The third shot is unusable due to the fact that I was running for my life toward the right side.
The young lady and 2 friends were beyond the large rock on the right as the first wave came ashore. The others were quicker than she was. When this wave hit it startled her (and me) just as I tripped the shutter.
This wave came in with violence, much larger and quicker than any I had seen in about 20 minutes in this area. Looking closely one can see small rocks flying through the air mixed in with the roaring wave.
I got soaked up above my boots, the girl got soaked almost to her knees.
Fun time!
