This is the remains of Brightons West Pier, surfers seem to head for the left side, l guess the pier creates the surf, but it is dangerous getting there as metal structures jut out under the sea, this guy was judging the swell and tide before he swam out.

A LE of the breaking swell at No.2 Churchill Barrier, Orkney.
A few days of a SE gale is in the past, but the swell still remains...
One of the last shots I will post from Godrevy, although it was one of the first I took. It was a test shot but I never got this sort of movement in the sea again while I stayed at the location.
I am really back into my photography after a brief spell of losing interest. Thankyou for all your comments over the last week and a bit.

The stretch of good weather continues into the weekend.
This is the "Swell," a beautiful converted classic tugboat. She was built in 1912 with a coal-fired steam plant. Today, after numerous refits, she is diesel powered and is an expedition vessel for 12 lucky passengers. "Swell" has a fabulous history and if you are interested, here is a link from her owners:

My friends Ali and Patrick are getting married today. It's so cold here we decided to rent Ali a fur for the walk to chapel. While she was browsing, Patrick had fun with the furs too.
A big swell generated by an intense Low Pressure cell in the Southern Ocean is on its way to Australia's SE coastline. The surf was already building in Newcastle this morning but was quite rideable. Tomorrow is forecast to be very different.

Corny title I know - but who I am to resist a corny title ? ;)). Delightful grey rain weather here at the moment....allowing me and Mama Retina to get acquainted in a relaxed fashion. Seasons are a funny thing - you reach that point , in every season, when you are done and ready for the next season. That is how I am right now with summer here in Sydney (am I really saying this) , its been wonderful , totally swell however I am now looking forward to autumn, the mists, the light, the coolness, the warm ocean(warmest now for the next few months) , the bigger surf, the quieter beaches.
With the mugginess right now I can feel that Autumn is in the wings, she is in hair and make up right now knowing that her moment is close and I will be on my feet to welcome her with open arms when she makes her appearance on the Bondi stage :).

The title of the sculpture is taken from the Brady Bunch movie.
In a Mr Brady 'pearl of wisdom' moment he paraphrases a classic Confucius quote. Beneath the banality of the Brady Bunch moment though lies an ancient and enlightened philosophy. The ubiquitous billboard is used here not to sell a product but rather promote discussion as to the transient and impermanent nature of existence.

The sun sets over Asilomar Beach near Pacific Grove, California. One lone surfer catches the show and perhaps one last wave.
The big swell at North Curl Curl yesterday with the @focusaustralia Group.

In the trees at RSPB Swell Wood.
There is a lot of recently cut hazel in the woods and the Herons are coming down to break off bits and pieces for their nests. I ought to go back and capture this as the nest building seemed to stop around 10:30 and I realised too late what was going on.
Taken earlier this month at Tathra Headland NSW. A surf machine aptly named "Swell" on the numberplate. The next weekend I saw the same car leaving with a retro metal caravan behind it. I believe this modified Willys car would have been brought out about 1940-1941. Some in America had wood around the sides. I have to be happy with my blue Subaru, (in the background!).
While the mammoth winter waves of Oahu's North Shore are by far my favorite and the most dramatic, the Summer Southern Swells tend to bring out more creativity since they're not just out there trying to survive.
Swell was purpose built for the Victoria Tug Company, incorporated by George McGregor and Capt. Dan McPherson in August 1912. The Swell was their new, coal-fired steam tug. She was launched with an 18 horsepower steam engine. She complemented the two tugs that Victoria Tug Company already had
The Swell, one of British Columbia's most historic ships, was purpose built in Vancouver BC Canada for the Victoria Tug Company, incorporated by George McGregor and Capt. Dan McPherson in August 1912. The Swell was their new, coal-fired steam tug. The year 1912 was a booming one for the economy of the new Canadian settlements on the coast. Victoria, the oldest city, had been around in one form or another since the 1840s. Victoria Tug Company had eight tugs working full time back in the early 1900's, Swell is the only one still in use. In 1954, Swell’s power was converted to a 400 horsepower diesel engine. In later years Swell has become an expedition ship and underwent a 3.5 million dollar refit in 2004, it now accommodates 12 guest's in six comfortable deluxe suites and does a variety of cruises in the inside passage, the longest is a cruise of eight nights/nine days. The 'super tug' is moored at a public marina in Ladysmith BC Canada, a fitting town with it's history as well.

Re-edit of Tide of Time after I decided I really like the image, but I'm not super keen on the processing. There's a brief description on my G+ here: plus.google.com/113846762678365150284/posts/4tGgtAS5nTY
And, since my non-reading of invites before clicking accept has precipitated this... NB: Inviting me to an awards group doesn't mean I'll participate nor abide by its rules. You want the picture in your group, fair enough. But I'm not gonna go spamming other people's comments with distracting graphics.
