Granite Reef Surfing was at the beach having some fun in the waves

A gi-normous southwest swell is pounding the coast, probably helped a bit by the 5.3 quake we had yesterday.

The wave hit the cliff and it has just withdrawn. A thousand small drops that scent of salt remains in the air ...

Waves at Lavertezzo

What a cold and windy day. The waves look amazing smashing on the rocks. Wanted to stay longer just to look at the waves come and gone. But I couldn't stand the coldness......

Lake Michigan, WI

The waves were several metres high, I took this photo from high up on the cliffs

Wave By Klaus Lee

A 15 foot wave comes to shore with a nice burst of color.

Just as it was...

This is not a modified pic.. I just tempered a little with a brighter color and trimmed a little sand... but everything else is as it was taken.. the shape f the wave is impressive.. there was a Storm going out there in the Pacific and though we had clear skies we had a red flag that prevented us from swimming due to the storm...

I didnt care too much.. as long as i had my camera.. =)

Continuing my ongoing "Wave Art" series.

I know I'm flooding my stream with these lately. But I have a bunch that I haven't shared and life is keeping me too busy to shoot anything new right now. I love this series though so hopefully you won't get tired of them :)

This pelican must have been whiffling on his way down , was waving at me or a gust of wind hit it or was just out of control.
