    Thks. I have many variations of this scene (shot them one after another from the same position) but there is something about this particular wave formation that's different.

    Majestic.Totally get that somewhat scary feeling, as it is quite a sublime scene. I love that wave and highly-detailed textures of the water in the foreground.

    Thanks Dray. Don't know why but the Pacific seems more scary to me than the Atlantic. Maybe because its water is so freakin' cold. -G

    It's a beautiful shot and I like the texture you captured with the foreground water, but I really don't get any 'scary' from it. - TF

    Beautiful shot! How I love that tack sharp focus...

    This scene does make me wonder what it was like on the sea that night - it might have been scary.
