Thursday 9th of November did not disappoint. Waves of 25 feet plus was entering the cove and the atmosphere was quite simply awesome.

Picking out and tracking waves with my 100-400 was challenging to say the least and it was not safe on the beach either with those pesky breaking waves on the shoreline. Shooting conditions were brutal...

Captured handheld at 400mm I was pleased with some of the shots I came away with. Although going through close to 2k shots not so much fun...

Thanks very much for viewing. Wishing you, your families and friends a very happy Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year :)

There are volunteer sago palms around the base of the original. I know I have to decide what to do about the excess, but at present I am enjoying watching the fronds uncurl.
