After nearly getting rick-rolled by a freak wave I was determined to wait for the next one so i could nail a sweet waterfall off this little rock face.. well, i wait… and waited…and waited, in the end the sea won, i gave up and took what I had and tried something else 😉
The waves did (well one of them) breach the rock face and flow over the edge into the channel which was very cool, nicely shaped a 'S' – well, next time i will get it.
On another side note – RIP for the French bloke (Fabien Ardoin) who died just north of here (cheese rock) the other week, very sad to see a young man with lots of potential have his life cut short.
As with all shots this morning, taken under the protection of a umbrella, with a barrel load of water on the filters and camera.
Exif/setup data:
D7000 coupled with Tokina 11-16mm f2.8 @11mm Aperture: f/9 and Shutter Speed: 1.5s
out front – a very wet LEE graduated filter 0.9 and screw in circular polariser
As always, I welcome any suggestions, comments and improvements to my photography, they are always warmly welcomed.
Awesome shot. That's dedication. Looks like some weather moving in.

rick rolled – expecting something good then getting something crap instead 😉
+Betty A 🙂 thanks
+Gerard Blacklock hahaha :p
Filtered perfectly if you ask me. The gray sky in back really accentuates the rocks in the foreground.
Very nice work, Gerard. Well done!
Wow!
Raw beauty, nice work Gerard.
Nice capture….
A nice shot of waves doing what they want- dramatic water effects. The struggle of the photographer striving for that perfect capture, good work Gerard.
