Beautiful image and nicely positioned! I wish I'd made it that way... traffic was incredible. I see you've captured great surfing actions.
Aloha!

At first I was thinking to myself that this was a candy shot and had very little artistic value- but then- I was really taken by the green color of the waves and you could almost taste the sea spray. fantastic color and great job! |

Thanks Laurie, I was long overdue! :D
It also helped that I posted something other than a flag which voters were pretty tired of, myself included.
Thank you all for your votes and the great comments. I'm puzzled how anyone could miss the wind in my photo? As for lack of a focal point, I really wanted to draw attention to the mist rather than the wave itself so I posted a shot with a really wild spray. I had many other pics with beautiful waves but the focus would be more on the water than the element of wind.
All I was hoping for was a top 10 finish. Looks like Santa left me a yellow ribbon for the holidays! |

Ah, the windy sea...you've really captured the essence of a winter sea - or at least a sea in high winds. Just excellent! |

I bet there are people that voted who didn't understand that this wave was caused by wind. Good job with this picture. Looks like a powerful wave. |

I think this shot lacks only one thing - a focal point (such as a surfer or swimmers). The blowing spray does a good job of depicting WIND. |

Love the sharp focus on the underside of the wave and the soft focus on the blowing spray. This really conveys the feeling of wind. |

Despite this being a good shot, it shows more of the water than the wind... I do realize wind plays an important part in generation of the waves, but that's just not obvious from this shot. |

I am curious how you achieved this particular sky. Appears unnervingly dark against the bright waves. Quite interesting drama and excellent composition overall. Strong on technical aspects. Appropriate to challenge theme. |
