It is easy to forget how much our editing skill and software improves over time! This is a re-dux of an archive image from 2009. There are so many of these I want to have another go at!

This image was taken as we sailed in the Labrador Sea off the west coast of Greenland. The Sea was quite calm at the time and the sun was shining on the water, creating a lovely backdrop.
we, of course, practiced the fine art of wave jumping. that the waves were non-existent deterred us not at all.
Here's a rarity for me. An (almost) untouched photograph, just a miniscule amount of photoshop to highlight the waves. Sometimes you just have to let nature be the artist.
ps. I got very, very wet, but it was worth it.

This shot is from last weekend at Austinmer, for one reason or another I never got around to uploading it to flickr until now.
I had to traverse a rocky platform up to my knees in seawater to get around to see this perspective on a deep crack in the shelf. I managed to keep the tripod still enough as a wave pushed up through the gap and spilled over the edge and came gushing past me. luckily I managed to time my exposure just right to capture the motion of the water just as I now remember it in my mind.

Cheers!
Had a good day out with the camera, I ended up being pretty happy with what I took.
All in camera except levels and sharpening PP.

The Wave is a spectacular sandstone formation on the slopes of the Coyote Buttes in the beautiful and rugged Paria Canyon-Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness, … just south of the Utah-Arizona border about halfway between Kanab, Utah and Page, Arizona.
This incredible formation can be reached by hiking approximately 3 miles (4.8 kilometers) across rugged, trailless landscape, making the round-trip to and from The Wave a nearly 6-mile (9.7-kilometer) hike that climbs about 350 feet (107 meters) in altitude [sic]. The area can be really hot in summer (100 F +), so it is best to start the hike early. --from Wiki
Well, my friend and I hiked this late, staying over sunset in The Wave. It is an incredibly beautiful area, and I'd love to get back there.
Hiking back through the darkness was pretty exhilarating, but I could see it being nearly impossible and very stressful without a GPS. Carins are few and far between, and nearly impossible to locate at night, even with flashlights. Fortunately, there are a couple washes that cross at pretty identifiable areas on the trail; identifiable enough where we could see by a crescent moon and be okay.
Rough sea at Reykjanesviti, south-west of the Reykjanes peninsula, Iceland.

A wave without a surfer. This beach in our city hosts national surfing championships at times and has a steady wave supply from the south Pacific. For many year there have been nets up to prevent sharks catching swimmers and surfers but we are saving money this year and the nets have been removed ...
Few things are more intellectually and conceptually interesting, and confounding, than attempting to understand wave-particle duality and the role of the observer in quantum mechanics (as many of us first explored as young people being shown versions of the famous double-slit experiment). This is not that or anything like it, of course, as these dunes built of miniscule grains can all be appreciated and described in the classical world. But spending a quiet sunrise in Death Valley among these beautiful wave forms visibly borne of billions upon billions of ever-restless particles got me thinking crazy abstractly nonetheless . . .
Thanks for viewing!
It's been a few days and my fingers still haven't fully recovered... When I embarked on this little day trip, I knew I wanted three shots: 1) decent wedge of the leading three locomotives, 2) Iowa City bridge, and 3) Moscow / Cedar River bridge.
So I went to Moscow, but I think I might have made like the Russian army and taken a wrong turn. It was sunny and clear an hour prior, and I arrived at the riverfront to find snow billowing around the small crowd amassing there and relentless waves of frigid wind cutting through all those layers of clothes. I'm not sure what happened, but a year or two ago I just lost all my cold resistance entirely. I just cannot handle it anymore. So, the 20-odd degree weather paired with wave after wave of piercing wind, and sudden snow - plus a half frozen river for good measure - really didn't quite feel too nice!
If nothing else, we all bonded over the shared cold. We were also all waiting there much longer than expected - I thought maybe five or ten minutes, as I wasn't all that far ahead, but it wound up being well over a half hour, maybe closer to 45 minutes. Turns out, the donation train had stopped back in Atalissa - a town I'd very nearly stopped at myself for a shot at the elevator there! But I skipped it as I didn't want to risk getting stuck behind chasers and missing the bridge.
We did not learn of the stop until most of that half hour had passed. At the same time, the snow and wind picked up, and nearly gave us full blizzard and white out conditions. You couldn't see past the third bridge span, and anything closer was plenty hard to see too! Just barely two minutes before UP5716 broke through the sticks. Too bad the wave of relief wasn't warm! I crouched down near the firepit and nearly froze my leg to the ground, hah!
Cranking the heat in the car never felt so good after this...
GWR Class 158 DMU no. 158766 departs Yatton station in North Somerset on the down line on the afternoon of Monday 23 January 2023. This train was 2C79, the Cardiff Central (1401hrs) to Penzance service. The compressed perspective inherent at 800mm gives an interesting view of undulations in the rails.
