Photographers brave breaking waves and showers of sea water while balanced on slippery rocks to catch a shot of water running through Thor's Well.
Happy Saturated Saturday!
Really didn’t get the results I was hoping for that evening - I was hoping to see sunset piercing the waves, but it didn’t. And the air was so full of water vapor from big waves breaking up that most shots just looked hazy and muddled. Ah well.
It's no secret that one of my very favourite places to be is beside the sea along the Great Ocean Road.
Just recently we rented a beautiful little cottage only 200m from the beach which meant getting up at the crack of dawn . . . or in this case just before, was a must do.
I had planned to get up around 5.30am in the hope of catching a colourful sunrise . . . I woke around 5.15 and my comfy bed beckoned me to stay . . . but once glimpse out he window and the faintest hint of pink in the sky was all I needed . . . that and the chance to give my brand new DSLR it's first true run.
I was not disappointed and my early rise was reward with a spectacularly colourful sunrise (my camera did not disappoint either) . . . there was not a soul about and the beach for those couple of hours was my own, to bask and enjoy in the beautiful morning light . . . just blissful.
This is one of my very favourite shots from the weekend.
Just as the wave cannot exist for itself, but is ever a part of the heaving surface of the ocean, so must I never live my life for itself, but always in the experience which is going on around me. -Albert Schweitzer
celebrating world ocean day!
it's time to save our oceans from plastic waste and protect the sea flora fauna
Relentless waves, in ceaseless march they come,
Each crest a tale of time, each crash a hum.
Against the shore they hurl their might,
With endless rhythm, day and night.
They dance in harmony, a symphony of sound,
Echoing through the sands, the sea's profound.
Their fury whispers secrets old,
Stories of sailors, mysteries untold.
With every surge, they sculpt the land,
Shaping cliffs and shores with gentle hand.
But underneath their tranquil guise,
Lies a power that could mesmerize.
They carry tales from distant lands,
And treasures lost beneath the sands.
In their embrace, the weary find reprieve,
As they ebb and flow, a timeless weave.
Relentless waves, in eternal chase,
A reminder of nature's boundless grace.
They teach us lessons of strength and strife,
And the beauty found in the rhythm of life.

I'm grateful to Nathalie for her infinitely better title suggestion than my original, awful "Rushing Water".
Waves crashing onto stony beach between Killiney and Shankill, Dublin, Ireland. It was a windy day and near high tide.
