Recently, it's occurred to me that I wanted to try something a little different and step outside of my comfort zone... just a little. I've always had a love of the sea, and a fascination for waves (and indeed most things in nature which exhibit such complex behaviour), so I thought I'd give it a go. Instead of the classic landscapes, can I turn my hand (or rather eye) to shifting the focus towards waves as the main element in a scene, rather than a mountain, say. Their constant motion, which is typically so difficult to predict, forces a whole new way of looking at a scene. So this is the start of a short series of photographs taken either of waves directly, or where the wave is the key element in a scene. This first set, which I'll upload in relatively quick succession, was all taken in Cornwall, and all on a Mamiya 645 Super and a manual focus 105-210mm F/4.5 lens. The films used are Ektar 100, Portra 160, Portra 400 and Provia 100F.
This is the first of eight in this initial set.
The rain stopped for the moment but the seas are still big and powerful.

Aliso Beach California the wave was manually blended from the original for clarity.

wierd blue colour in the water in this area of the ocean off of taiwan's east coast. this is near the city of haulien on a crazy bus tour of the taroko gorge. i've got one more ocean wave picture to come.
Mi piace contemplare il mare in tempesta dalla riva, perchè ti senti al sicuro ma nello stesso tempo puoi ammirare il grande spettacolo della natura che manifesta la sua potenza.
Ero sulla riva e gli schizzi mi bagnavano continuamente, come una pioggerellina leggera, ed era bellissimo, perchè mi facevano sentire parte di tutto questo.
