Stormy Snapper Rocks by Keiran Lusk
It has been a week of wild weather here on the Gold Coast.
The coastline has been hammered by some spectacularly large seas, strong winds and heavy rain.

Looks wild Keiran. Great capture, love the colours here… Did you go flying today?! :)
Thanks Vicki. I had a very enjoyable and full day exploring the coastline from Miami to Tweed Heads. It wasn’t as windy as expected, so no flying with the umbrella for me today :-)

The flying sounds interesting – Mary Poppins style?!! Wonderful sense of movement and power here Keiran.
Ha ha, yeah… thankfully, umbrellas are not really my style at the beach… Thanks for the wonderful words Rosalie. Cheers :-)

awesome capture Keiran, can actually feel the strength of those waves, great job!!! …
Thank-you so very much Nurgen! It was awesome to feel the strength of these waves in person. I nearly got the camera wet a few times!

Your very welcome, glad you didn’t get your camera wet, more glad you didn’t end up in those waves lol..but yeh very literal and just makes you feel it’s power:)
Hehe, thanks Miss N. Although I may have come close to getting the camera (and myself) soaked on a few occasions, there was no way I was getting close enough to be washed off the rocks. I am really quite a sensible bloke (mostly). Cheers :-)
