 Not the best time of day for this location. Mid morning on a very bright summer day. But I was at the beach with my family and wanted to get something for this challenge.

Shot with circular polarized filter.

Used Lightroon for the following:
Straighten and Crop
Exposure +0.5
Highlight Recovery +11
Black Clipping +10
Clarity +75
Vibrance +50

I think I rushed into my first challenge without taking the time to get a good shot.

These are the other two I was considering and from looking at the comments they might have done slightly better:

I just realized this is on the page for the 100-300 lens. Not the main page but when you press browse.

Sorry, but putting something in the title doesn't make it the subject. The subject pretty clearly is the rock and spray. Aside from that, though, I think the vertical orientation detracts from the power of the water. A wide view would grab me more.

A lot of power in this wave. Nice timing for the photo.

Too bad the lighthouse isn't sharp. It seems trivial
