Rough surf at Pebble Beach, California. The different tonalities in the rocks, water, background terrain and white-cap wave made it a natural for black & white conversion.
PHILIPPINE SEA (May 30, 2011) Waves crash over the bow of the U.S. 7th Fleet command flagship USS Blue Ridge (LCC 19). There are 60-70 ships, 200-300 aircraft and more than 40,000 Navy and Marine Corps personnel assigned to the 7th Fleet. This includes forces operating from bases in Japan and Guam and rotationally-deployed forces based in the United States. Commander U.S. 7th Fleet, is embarked aboard Blue Ridge and forward deployed to Yokosuka, Japan. (U.S. Navy photo by Cmdr. Richard Keltner\Released)
The waves breaking into a slivered crack on Ihumoana Island gave the illusion of a blowhole.

Most of us have felt the fascination of the wave. The waves of the sea, which are the prototype of all the phenomena which we now call waves, are perhaps the most fascinating of all. Great as is the beauty of their form, the mystery of their motion is the greater charm. For while they move they live and have a being, which, like our own, is but momentarily associated with the matter of which they are formed. The wave preserves its individuality, it’s recognisable through not unchanging form, its energy, party active, partly in reserve, whilst its material substance is constantly rejected and renewed. Of all manifestations of the inorganic world it is most like a living being. Yet when we watch it to its end we find none of the sad accompaniments of the exhaustion of life. It is at its most beautiful at the last, as it culminates to its fall and breaks in seething form.
