Description

Venturing beyond my usual photography focus, I found myself captivated by an unexpected opportunity to capture the mesmerizing beauty of the ocean. While exploring the elevated expanse around Thor’s Well in the Cooks Chasm area, I contemplated experiencing another sunset amidst the rugged lava rocks. The intermittent storms had painted the horizon, creating a dramatic ambiance, and you could almost sense the approaching tempest.

With the tide at its peak and colossal waves crashing against the shore—underscored by a king tide ocean wave advisory for the afternoon—I seized the moment to freeze this captivating scene. The foreground showcases a solitary massive wave breaking, bathed in the ethereal glow escaping through the clouds. Each droplet of sea spray is illuminated, forming a stark contrast against the backdrop of rolling smaller waves in the darkening sea. This snapshot captures the essence of a fleeting, yet extraordinary, encounter with the untamed forces of nature.
