Both are great Gareth - moody and wild. Love the composition of no 2 with the stand alone wave.

Both are great captures Gareth and the second certainly made me look at it again, several times. I think it is the lighting of the sea against the sky that shows the power of the wind and wave.

I hope you didn't get too wet !

Both are excellent, but for me #2 wins it.

Thanks all. I stayed dry! The action takes place in front of you so you're okay. This image shows me and my daughter. I'm 4th from the left on the rocks, it shows the clear path back to the main promenade.
