I met this man as soon as I got to Newcastle. His name is Dennis and he helped me enormously giving me ideas of where to shoot within the Newcastle area. He is a much braver photographer than I am and told me that the only damage from getting so close to the water was to his remote - good ol Canon, they build 'em tuff!

This picture was taken at Leo Carrillo Beach, CA. As you can see, there are some very unusual rock formations and they look almost like prehistoric animals. The waves come in really hard and sound almost like thunder on that beach and they create a lot of white foam. So, I asked my wife to go down and stand where I could see her through that hole in the rock. The waves don't hit where I asked her to stand. Then, I just waited for a big powerful wave to hit the beach. You can see a lot of the airborne spray in the foreground. It looks like something from the old movie "One Million B.C.” (1940) and a re-make (1966).

The quality of place, the reaction to immediate contact with earth and growing things that have a fugal relationship with mountains and sky, is essential to the integrity of our existence on this planet.

I caught a programme about the RNLI last week and it really brought it home to me what an incredible job they do. Watching them go out in all weathers it makes you realise their incredible courage. The sea was wild at Portland Bill yesterday and I tried to imagine having to go out to sea in something like this
And the hopes / desire in our hearts...
Will never subside....never subside.....

Thought I'd post this wider shot of my recent upload (www.flickr.com/photos/katrinaspix/53228478757/in/datepost...) - because, for an iPhone shot, it's impressive how much sharper in-built phone-cameras are (even though my phone's basic & a few years old already).

I drove out to Golden Cove upon seeing the clouds forming right above my neighbourhood. They were Altocumulous clouds, but when I got the beach, they didnât advance much toward the sun. Only a few streaks of clouds lingered above the horizon. So, I decided to focus on the crashing waves and splashes instead. I always love freezing the motion of crashing waves. The sun was just about touching down the horizon.
Sometimes, Tahoe can create enough wave action that the tides can collide with the shoreline in dramatic fashion.
Pacific Coast to the Red Sea
You are my destiny
Face down upon the sand
Carry me to my dreams
In a faraway land.
Here is my heart
Here is my hand
Tears to fill the ocean
Longing to hear your
Laughter - Love's potion
Happily ever after.
My dearest Flickr friends...I'm sorry I'm not here much, but life's challenges are giving me a bit of a fight. I miss you all and I hope to catch up as much as possible when I can get connected and have time.
Our destination is the beach just north of the Tybee Island Lighthouse, which is part of the Colonial Coastal Birding trail. Our goal to hopefully see some of the over two hundred bird species and thousands of migratory birds which visit throughout the year.
The beach is separated by this jetty where the waves come crashing down around these huge rocks. To the right the beach is open to all kinds of beach activities. To the left you can enter the Birding trail where you must tread lightly, keep your eyes open and your camera ready.

Ever wonder how all that seaweed gets onto the shore?
It’s not that I’m living in the past, but I much prefer photos of my Mooloolaba mini break to photos of diet cola on my desk right now... Oh, those fancy volcanic rocks.

Just got the bug playing with photoshop and my images - especially the moon photos - I have used some birds that I took and the shining waves photo and just worked on making it look the way I wanted - really pleased with the end results :-)
Waves crash against one of the many stacks off the coast at Dyrhólaey. Such a wonderful place to view the power of the sea from a safe distance.
Powerful waves of the North Atlantic Ocean crash into the rocky shoreline of southern Iceland.

Illustration for a creepy children's story called 'The Ghosts of Blackrock Lighthouse'. This story is currently being serialised in the newspaper 'Asahi Weekly' in Japan.
Amidst swirling storm clouds, three ghosts rise from the tumultuous waves near a lighthouse. Their exaggerated expressions suggest surprise or fear in the chaotic scene.
Honolua Bay on Maui's northwest shore is a favorite spot for experienced surfers. During the winter high surf season, the bay has been known to have a hollow, powerful wave that offers incredibly long rides. The bluffs above the bay offer a perfect viewing platform to watch these talented surfers. It is always amazes me to see all ages of surfers walk up and down the steep bank in bare feet with their surfboard under their arms.
Explore #47 highest position 09/12/2016 ...many thanks to everyone for your favs and comments, it's much appreciated.
Taken while out scouting along Hengistbury head in the late afternoon for photo location opportunities armed with my Sony compact. It was not the best of days, bitter ice cold winds with limited amount of great light, it was at that point while lining up for the this picture wanting to get some wave action shots that the sunlight peeked through the clouds and at the same time capturing this moment with crashing waves.
After Storm Eunice had faded away, I went to beautiful Felpham Beach on a glorious and surprisingly warm February late winter day. This beach in Sussex in England, UK, is a gravel beach, but still needs erosion protection. The gravel and the rise of the beach means that the sound of the waves is both glorious and soothing! It is a fantastic place to go for an off-season beach walk!
Portreath, Cornwall
My first ever encounter with a coastal storm. Not the biggest by a long chalk, but powerful enough to make tripod work difficult, hence most images taken from the side of the car to minimise the buffeting of the 45mph winds.
The little white turret on the harbour wall is known as the “Monkey House” or “Monkey Hut” and dates back to the days when Portreath was a busy port, shipping copper out and coal in. Whilst the harbour was important the entrance was still treacherous. The Monkey House (although not known as that in those days) was used for shelter by the harbour pilots who would wave flags or lanterns to guide ships into harbour, or warn away if conditions were too dangerous.
Towering 244m (800 ft) over the Pacific Ocean, the Cape Perpetua headland is the highest viewpoint accessible by car on the Oregon Coast. This view is stunning as is every view along the entire westcoast, one could stop every ¼ mile or less to take in the view or explore if you had the time.
The Oregon Coast alone is 584 km (363 miles) of rugged shoreline, where tide pools and hiking trails share sunsets with beach towns and lighthouses.
If you were to drive the Oregon Coast nonstop it would take approximately 10-12 hours going just over 80kph (50mph), but everyone knows that it is impossible to drive the coast without many, many stops. The Washington and California Coasts are as equally amazing and interesting.
Eighteen-foot swells and storm conditions with strong winds produced massive explosions of sea against rock on the Oregon coast two days after Christmas. Ironically, this happened after the "King Tide", which was from December 22nd to 24th. For size context, on the right in a viewing area a couple of people are watching the action -- and looking mighty tiny by comparison.

Taken at last light yesterday afternoon - showing a break in the sky in the distance.
Another rainstorm meant another opportunity to capture a ton of clouds lingering in the sky at sunset. And as has been the case for about a couple of months now, I brought both my Canon and Sony. Not only did I do timelapse with both cameras but also I was looking forward to seeing the batches of individual shots that the Sony produced, albeit JPEG. Obviously a different spot would bring a different perspective, probably 50 feet away from where my Canon was, but the intense golden hour moments leading up to the gorgeous sunset were quite something.
With high surf warnings, the wave were massive and and the sounds of them crashing into the rocks was truly amazing! The power of nature is so impressive, it was a water works display!
