Once you hear the booming surf you never forget it. It is really churning up the sand in your photo.
Great capture.

That's some waves! I like the lighting, it adds to the drama of the picture.

Impressive. Does the horizon need straitening, or is it my eyes?

Walter, the horizon is fine...it's the sky that is crooked!

Walter your eyes are fine, there is a very slight tilt but having recently shot a lot of wave photos the horizon shifts so rapidly that I easily forgive slight horizon problems in these cases. Given how much the waves move the water around I had a difficult time. What was a perfectly aligned horizon one moment is off by degrees a fraction of a second later.
Just a thought.

Beautiful. So much to look at from the quiet sky, to the gentle water on the horizon to the booming surf.
