One of my more experimental shots from my stay in Sennen. I tried a number of ICM and panned shots of waves as they were racing towards the shore. Most of my results were terrible, but I thought this one might be good enough to share.
Taken from a RIB in the sea between the Pembrokeshire coast and Ramsey island. The waves are caused by the tide and a group of rocks known as the Bitches.
I was fascinated with the gulls maneuvering around the crashing waves.
Viewed from the beach in front of the Kuchel Visitor Center, Redwood National Park, California.
A couple of other shots from my time ay the shore this week end. I was trying to catch the dawn light through the breaking waste, this is as close as I came.

Last January, this iconic lighthouse was destroyed in a fierce winter storm. It's not the first time this happened. Since the original was constructed in 1903, it's been knocked down by waves as well as fire. On this occasion, the townsfolk came together to fund a replacement but moved it back several feet from the breakwater on a new foundation. Perhaps that will spare the wooden structure from the worst of the waves as they come crashing ashore in a gale. It still looks a bit unfinished and I'm hoping it will be shingled by cedar shakes as the previous version was.
As for my composition, I was looking to recreate some of the big rollers that come into the harbor from Georgian Bay - using the waves of stone on an adjacent beach.
