Sunset at Point Arena Lighthouse, which is cloaked in mist created by crashing waves, salt spray, and stormy weather. Point Arena Lighthouse is situated at the end of Point Arena peninsula on the rocky pacific coast of northern California. The original lighthouse was completed in 1870, but was later rebuilt with reinforced concrete after an earthquake in 1906 destroyed the original. Originally fitted with a first order Fresnel Lens (which can be seen in the museum), It was automated on 1977.
there's something so powerful about crashing waves and the rocks that defy it.. the raw intensity of nature vs the steadfastness of nature..
thus creating a simple split second moment
LAST of 5 videos taken over 14 minutes on morning of 6th December 2016 from outside my thatched hut above Coffee Bay. Flickr limit length of videos uploaded to 3 minutes so I have uploaded all 5 in sequence to allow viewers to see how beautiful the ocean sunrise is to watch.
The unidentified Blue...The Dory Fleet of Pacific City With its smooth, sandy beach, the quiet coastal town of Pacific City, on the coast of Oregon's Tillamook County, is the perfect home for a unique group of boats. The Pacific City dory fleet has a proud history spanning more than 100 years. Nestled in the natural shelter provided by Cape Kiwanda, the fleet lives on today as one of the most interesting fishing fleets in the world. The small flat-bottomed boats dare the ocean as they crash through the surf headed for the plentiful waters of the Pacific. At day's end, they ride the waves back to shore and slide onto the beach. The original design of the dory allows it to launch from and land on the shore. Through the inherent dangers of ocean fishing, governmental restriction, international fishing competition, and, most recently, the influx of surfers and civilization, the dedicated fishermen have held on to tradition.
Bexhill on Sea was being blasted with strong winds on May 7th 2007 - some large waves crashing down as a result.
I got pretty wet waiting for this wave to crash in!
Yet again, I was just snapping away with my 3.2MP Sony Cybershot camera phone, shortly after arriving at a private beach in Cornwall.
When I booked my trip to Oman I had no idea what to expect. Friends said it was an incredible spot to visit. Photos of the empty quarter and other regions looked stunning. The general advice I got was that it was a) expensive and b) safe.
During my 6 day road trip at the end of 2019 and start of 2020 I explored the north eastern corner of the country.
I found the prices to be comfortable so long as you were flexible and had your own car. More than that, the beauty of the landscapes was stunning, and the locals were incredibly friendly and welcoming.
These are highlights from that trip.

Massive waves crash ashore at Shore Acres State Park, near Coos Bay, OR. Some of these waves send water up to a hundred feet in the air. One of the best places to view the show is near the old tennis courts, north of the parking lot.
Tourist Tip: If you see someplace that's wet, don't stand there. It's wet because a massive wave just drenched the area, and there's a good chance another one will hit within a few minutes, often with little warning. Even if you're within the fenced-in areas, be prepared to be hit by the spray from the waves.
The weather we are having at the moment is causing lots of really heavy rain, flooding and rough seas.
After my visit to Oman in 2019, I knew I was eager to go back and see more. Though I initially envisioned a trip that took me from Muscat to the Empty Quarter, sadly logistics got in the way. Instead I spent about 8 days exploring north eastern Oman while re-visiting favorites. Along the way, I found some great photos. Got my car stuck in the sand. Had some adventures. Ate a lot of great food. And was once again amazed by the wonderful hospitality of the Omani people.

Hurricane Bill helped push the waves on Long Beach in Rockport to very un-Massachusetts like heights (4'-7') on Saturday (when these were shot). The surfers came out in droves. Because of the high waves and undertow, the beach closed for swimming for a while on Saturday afternoon, and many MA beaches were closed on Sunday.

Create a dramatic, cinematic scene of Jonah being expelled onto the shore by a massive, mythical sea creature. The giant fish erupts from the surf with a thunderous splash, its mouth wide and water cascading around it. Jonah collapses onto the sand in shock, gasping as sunlight breaks through the clouds. Capture the intensity of the moment—crashing waves, swirling foam, and a raw mixture of fear, relief, and divine purpose. Use sweeping ocean shots, vibrant colors, and realistic motion effects.
