Upper Antelope Canyon - Navajo Reservation - Page, Arizona View On Black
The rocks that make up Antelope canyon are the petrified remains of prehistoric sand dunes laid down when a shallow ocean filled this portion of North America. Cross bedding is noticable in the soft sandy walls. Many large overhangs with spiraling grooves carved into the sandstone loom overhead. Millions of years of erosion created this awesome splender of Mother Nature. Over time, the water started cutting it's way into this sandstone with tremendous force creating eddies and whirlpools, this is what makes the spiraling walls referred to as the Corkscrew formation.

Back in 2002 I did a small 4x6 watercolor of a breaking wave on the rocks up at Lake Superior. It is only lately that I have grown to appreciate the value of small watercolors and think I should do some more! This is my most viewed watercolor! (3690 views!)
I took a few closeup shots of waves crashing at Plum Island as the remnants of a hurricane comes up the coast.

I like this simple photograph, the warmth of the sun and energy of the waves breaking calmly against the shoreline.
A stiff wind kicked up larger waves today on Lake Michigan. These waves were rolling much further up onto the beach than usual as a result.
Found a nice spot on the rocks in Lincoln Township Beach to sit and watch the waves roll into the beach.
Cornish coastal scenes truly come to life in the winter months, as the wind whips up the waves that crash against the rocks.
Mullion is still a working fishing village with only three registered boats. Lord Robartes built the pier between 1890 and 1897 not only to protect the fishermen and their families but also to protect the boats coming in with coal that was required for his estate. Local millionaire Montague Meyer gave Mullion Cove to the National Trust in 1945.
like the surfers, I was trying to catch the good wave curls! this was one of the best ones I managed to get
