I'm there - experiencing the wind, the waves, the beautiful colour! Perfectly composed, even to the bird on the sands. Love and favourite!

What a great and dramatic capture! A picture that really tells a story.
Carol Senske replied:
The ocean can get very dramatic at Diamond Shoals; this is where the Labrador Current and Gulf Stream crash into each other creating lots of shoals and waves, even in the best weather.

What a very powerful shot Carol.
Carol Senske replied:
There is nothing like a riled up ocean to remind folks of nature's dominance. It's an awesome feeling to be standing in front of 4 to 6 foot crashing breakers. Thank you for the nice comment!
