A few from yesterdays trip to Porthcawl lighthouse. Family trip to the shops so didn't hang around long enough for the big waves to start, these were about 3 to 4 hours before high tide.

All Pentax K1 & DA* 60-250mm

Just as well, if these were the small ones!!!

Great sense of motion - you can almost feel the wind. I like 'em.

1 & 2 really feel like the waves are attacking the man-made stuff. In 3 the 'vapourousness' of the water gives it a ghostly look, as if it were temporarily defeated, wondering if there is another way to go about it. Nice.
