Hi Peter,

A great action shot! I was caught by a wave like that in Southsea last year! Along with my sister and brother, we were drenched from head to toe! We couldn't stop laughing!!

Best wishes,
Rosa.

Thank you so much Rosa

Your story is so nice! All of you get wet, and you are happy!!
For some reason I don't understand, the waves on the north side are much bigger than those on the south, and even though it wasn't so windy, there were some big waves, (and a lot not so big that didn't make the photo..)
At least I didn't get wet!!

Well Peter, if you had seen us you would have had a good laugh! My sister has curly hair so hers dried much better than mine. The funniest thing was a man just passing my eldest brother and that poor man was soaked and Terry remained dry ;-))

Have a good weekend....Rosa.

Just as well the reef is there to blunt those waves. Well captured.

Thank you George

I could not decide if the reef was natural or not, but it definitely took the impact of the big waves!

Another spot in this small world that we shared Peter. I once visited here as part of a tour of the Island during a cruise. Great catch here. Well done. ~ Herb

Thank you Herb

I am pleased that it brings back nice memories for you. I guess the island is so small that there can only be a couple of practicable tour routes, and this must be one of them!!

Thank you Steve,

Glad you like it. I don't know if these blokes actually caught anything in the sea though..

Powerful waves in a nicely timed image Peter

Thank you Roger,

There was a big mix of waves here, so I must admit I waited for a big one!!
Pleased you enjoyed it

The surf is quite something! You caught the contrast between the dramatic sea and the fishermen's calm really well.

Thank you Gudrun,

I am happy that you noticed! Perhaps the fish know to stay this side of the rocks to avoid the waves!

Best Wishes
Peter
