    Guess I am a sucker for traditional! I love this one, the early morning light gives a subtle coloring to the all the elements and the crashing wave keeps it all fresh! A classic shot!

    Every time you upload one of these shots, I feel like I will get a soaking, if I venture too close. Mel, as always-definitive work.

    Ooh this is nice Mel, kinda reminds me of where I hung out near Port Mac when I went up that way.. tacking point, has a lot of nice little coves similar to this.. Love the tones in the sky and water :)

    Interesting, soft and gentle yet still managing to show the strength and power of the waves. Well done.

    Nicely timed (big) wave crashing in against the rocks Mel and the warmth of the clouds as the sun tickles them at the start of the day is superb.
