A little action you say? A Little? This is so full of action it's hard to know where to begin to see even half of it. The spray on the waves is unbelievable and the color you captured on the inner side of that swell is one that I never thought I'd see in an ocean view. I don't know how you do it, and you could tell me til I'm blue in the face, and I still wouldn't understand. This is truly great.
I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't and die to find out there is.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

Zango! This has it all. The celadon underskirts of waves, the explosion of salty water, the rays of light gilding the foam and the harsh rocks which take no prisoners. No sound track needed here. Great image.
*You will have noticed that I haven't been commenting as much on your fine images!..This is because of the pains in my hands!..the constant use of the keyboard, makes this difficult..so, my dear friends..I can only apologise to you all in advance!*

Jen, this is perfect. There isn't anything else I could say that could even begin to express how good I think this is. It goes on my home PC for next week and into my "Favorites Gallery".
What a wonderful picture. The brilliance of the color inside the wave contrasted with the monochrome of the rest of the scene was a very imaginative choice on your part. You've got a super composition and real drama in this image. Great work!
I can seriously hear those waves now. Amazingly captured, I love the splash (no pun intended... seriously!) of colour underneath the wave and how it contrasts with the black and white setting of the rest of the picture... beautiful.
Anything that excites me for any reason, I will photograph; not searching for unusual subject matter, but making the commonplace unusual.

A crashing capture!! Total quality in contrast control, dy-no-mite details and cool, refreshing color offerings really give the viewer much to soak up!! Outstanding overall comp and a grand image!!
Awesome capture Jen full of the spectacular wonder of the Napali coast. The lighting is amazing, the composition is excellent and the colors are perfect. It's a 10/10 plus and a keeper for sure. Thanks for sharing this wonderful reminder.
Please know that I enjoy your work even though I don't always get to comment. I try to look at (and enjoy) all your new posts and always appreciate the time you take to stop in at my gallery as well. Have a happy day ;) Anita
This is brilliant! I don't know how you managed to get this with the constant movement of the waves, but the lighting, the clarity and the feel of this photo is excellent. I have rarely seen a photo of the sea captured as good as this one is. Bravo!
