Sunset breakers roar—
light flares on their crested backs
as they crash and curl.
My voice shakes the quiet shore
with the fire of fading light
The sea a little agitated when I arrived home this evening.
Of all the waves caught on the coast, especially Big Sur, this image is the one that just "comes to life." It wasn't a rogue wave. The outcrops that made up the shore were in so many different positions that any wave was bound to build and comes crashing upward, forward, and outward. It took 30 minutes of waiting and shooting to come up with a favorite. It's not just another wave.

That's Reef Point in the foreground and then Abalone Point behind it. If you get around Abalone Point, you are almost at Laguna Beach.

Due to the fact that the wind comes almost from West, the waves become the same direction, from W to E, and wash the sand away
To stop/make less this washout effect, to break the stronght of the waves - that's the reason of this pillars. In the northern part of Zeeland there are beaches , many km long, and there are this pillars, always two lines together, repeating so about 500m. Depending from tide/low tide you can see 2,0m or nothing from them.
Westkapelle (51°32′N, 3°26′E) is a village in the municipality of Veere on the island Walcheren, in the province Zeeland of the Netherlands. On 1 January 2005, it had a population of 2,671. Westkapelle is on the westernmost tip of Walcheren and is surrounded by the sea on three sides.
Westkapelle is mainly known because of its lighthouse, standing prominently at the entrance to the village. This tower is the remains of a church that burned down in the 18th century. In the 19th century, a light was added to the top so that it could serve as a lighthouse.
Westkapelle was a separate municipality from 1816 until 1997, when it was merged with Veere.
One of those images which i feel needs the mono treatment, a simple subject brought to life with a slow exposure.
It's becoming very Octoberish on the western shore of Lake Michigan. Gray skies occasional fog, winds, and waves are all part of the total picture. B&w shots of the lake become temporarily more appropriate.
The Rozewerf is a little group of wooden houses situated just besides the dike of the island Marken. The island is situated in the former sea IJsselmeer, now called Markermeer. In strong winters the water of the IJsselmeer was frozen. In order to protect the Rozewerf against crossing ice at the end of the winter, these ice breakers were built (in the year 1872).
