Wow, David - what a fabulous capture of these waves cresting and about to break!! The golden highlights from the sun on them are exceptional...and the sheen on the water and the pastel colour of the 'rooster tails' blowing off the back of the crests really makes this a stunning image!! Outstanding work!! :o) #7370846Chris Schlosser April 04, 2009
