These was taken yesterday in between rain squalls. From about 60 feet away you really feel the power and anger of the sea

WOW, what a horrid looking wave. :twisted:

No. 1 is the pick for me. Although it seems the BW is lacking a little punch? Might just be me.

Can i ask where this was taken?

Yeah the colour version was probably better. This was taken at suck rock on the Kurnell Peninsula

looked like either suck rock or shark island. Nice shots and the B&W treatment gives them a stormy dark feeling.

Thanks for sharing,

"The Sea is an Angry Dog, Giant and Grey"

Great shot, would suit the poem to a tee.

Nice.
I really like them both. It seems as if you're at the same level as that angry sea.

If you use CS2 you could always fiddle a little with the shadows in shadow/highlights to give the image a little more punch. Not that that wave needs any more punch. :D

Nice one Jethro.
The sea is an all powerful subject that I for one never tire of.
But it can be tough on the gear.

Jethro, good shot but all i can say that when i was younger i watched jaws and well that really stopped me from going into the water to much at the beach so i would not like to be out in that, but could be ok for some brave surfers.

Nice images of the power of the wave.
I've been trying for similar shots to yours but the sea and wind has not cooperated so far.
