Lyn, referring to your narrative: because I'm a retired seaman now, I won't be crying anymore, ☺ , but my heart still skips a beat by viewing such a splendid image!

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
Having body surfed many times in the waters of California, back when I was in the Navy, scenes like this always take me back to that time. I enjoy seeing waves that are strong enough to create the hidden and temporary small world of the tube, seen here with just a couple openings. Short of being out there, shooting into one end of the tube, or underwater (which is really bizarre and specific), this is as good as surf shooting gets.
