AloooooooHa!
Surprise, surprise...more waves! Yeah I know, I've been pounding you with waves lately. I have so many on my hard drive I thought I would start posting them before I loose my damn mind and delete them all. This was a shot a few months back when we had a good swell pounding the Puna Coast.
This was a very sketchy day to be out shooting alone as the waves were quite huge and I was out on the rocks. I don't recommend doing this as we loose people all the time in surf like this. Not paying attention when the ocean is treacherous like this can cost you your life. But I plan my escape routes well before I ever venture to the edge to get my shots.
Sometimes you can be mesmerized by the power of these beauties and forget how much danger you have put yourself into. Such was the case here...I just did escape the wrath of this wave as it exploded on too the rocks. Man for an ole guy, I can still boogie if the situation calls for it...but I know the consequences and learn lessons each time I go out....
Glad to report no damage to my equipment or myself...on this day.
Many thanks for your comments on my previous posts, I sincerely thank all of you for your time spent here having a look....Much Aloha to All!!

Staggeringly beautiful metaphor for the crashing US economy. This should be used as a graphic for the Economist with a couple a spots to show where things are now and where they are headed. Hope you're keeping your head above the water.
