I spent some time by the coast of Croatia and witnessed a spectacular storm with unusually huge waves. Normally the Adriatic ocean is quite calm and during the summer there is little action.

 

Needless to say I just had to get as close to the action as possible to get the most dramatic shots. The water was splashing at the rocks and I got showered a number of times. Protecting the camera made me soaked wet almost up to my waist!

 

To really "get into" this photo you got to view it large. Flickr is good for many things but the default size of the pictures is just too small.
