Description
Well, you can't really ride this surf; it's way too wild and crazy. The surf was up to 25-30 feet earlier this morning. By the time I got there, it was only about 10-15 feet. I know this foto doesn't do come close to showing you what it was like out there today. The beach is very wide, but the waves had flooded the small parking lot, left a foot of sand in it, and lots of sand and debris in the road. As if that wasn't enough, they also crashed into the pasture that's on east side of the dunes, and that's about a quarter of a mile from the water's edge!!

Yeow, Not Me!!!! That's to tuff for me to ride, glide or stride, but I would love to see someone else lasso this puppy for a spin !!!! Nice shot!!!
I love the untamed sea. It has a mind of its own. I've seen what you saw and its really wild. Great shot.
You can almost hear the crashing of these huge and thunderous waves, but isn't there something wonderful about that noise, I appreciate that the image doesn't do justice to the size and power but still a totally invigorating shot! great stuff!
Sometimes the camera just can't reproduce accurately what exactly happened, but I know how it looks the sea's show you just witnessed! Excellent shot, great view!
Waow! very dramatic. Love the light
YeeeeeeeeeeHaaaw! now that's a wave, I though it odd when you mailed me about those waves flooding the pasture, crazy deal eh?...Well captured Maz!
WOW! makes me uneasy! A super shot!
wonderful capture
A seemingly ending supply of rogue waves....
You be careful, there's always news stories about someone innocently watching wild waves and getting dragged out to sea by a surprise big one!
its a tad rough i think ..... :)
Just so you all know, I was on a hill, a VERY long way from these waves, using my zoom--though there were a couple of stupid, crazy guys walking right along the shoreline!!
Wonderful and very creative work
I love this shot! It makes me think I should be yelling so you can hear me over the crashing noise! I SAID, ..... !!!
had to see this one too.. Saw that you reached image nr. 777 on the 14th of december congratulations.. that image (already commented on it) is even more special than this one.. although here the fallen man gives a sence of size of the waves again.. nothing nasty... wonderful
Mother Nature showing her strength. There is a wicked storm coming ashore in the Northwest above you...wonder if this is a result.
love how the blue runs down the sand to the beach
Great Scott, a veritable tsunami! I don't see any surfer dudes braving those waves. Probably too cold for them. Good shot, Marilyn.
Scary! Great shot!
GORGEOUS!!!
Intense surf captured!
Wow, a great shot Marilyn. The sound must have been awesome!
very dramatic but also calming. (What's the old saying? To a god a galaxy is but a dot of light? well to the ocean this is a gentle ripple, and somehow you captured that too...) Maybe it's in part your instinctive division into 3's, sky, mid water & foreground & how they move from very sky-blue to dark & brooding blues. Very painterly. I can't tell if the foreground is water or sand or the ground you're shooting from, but you caught it so it looks like a continuation of the ocean, a dramatic choice. And I still can't figure out what that thing is on the right—a person lying down, a big log, a raft of some kind (maybe a bird)—but it adds an element of drama to it, reminding us that the ocean creates mystery pure & simple, w/ lots of forms that get transformed by its grandness...I'll comment on the others in the coming days (still catching up) but this is a terrific 'start' to the series for me, whooshing & crashing & with some real peace to it. A wonderful series of shots.
