Windy day, low light, waited for a few patches of blue - unfortunately the splash of the wave was alomost lost in the clouds - need to look closely at the edges.

Compositional crop would have improved this dramatic shot,and improved the impact...6 back for a bump

Wow, those waves are amazing! I think perhaps the photo is a little overexposed for my tastes. Not so much that I'd call it incorrect exposure--I just think the crashing waves might stand out from the sky more if the shot was slightly underexposed.

good capture of a rough sea. The wave breaking on the light house really conveys the strength of the gale. I think the red of the lighthouse though could have been a little brighter and more saturated.

I love lighthouses and I love this photo. Certainly shows nature's power.

Oh my!!!! What a dramatic fantastic scene! It needs to be matted and framed, hanging on a wall -- after being sold for big bucks of course! :)

Think this one better go straight to my favorites folder! Fantastic work!
