The larger challenge entry size does this scene more justice than was previously submitted. Some monster waves!

Amazing display of Nature's power. Great timing. And those rays shooting through the clouds on the left is just a bonus. Lovely!

Voted earlier coming back to comment.

Great action of the powerful waves crashing up on and near the lighthouse. Love that this captures the faint sun rays to the left and the seagull in flight. Very well seen and captured!
