    El Nino is my friend i hope he comes back.

    We had some large swells roll through recently which produced a few days of epic photo opportunities, below are some examples as well as my favorite which I posted in the monthly contest section.

    1El Nino is my friend i hope he comes back.

    2El Nino is my friend i hope he comes back.

    3El Nino is my friend i hope he comes back.

    4It was taking forever to post these and kept getting error messages (using tiny pic) I think I'll have to resize smaller the others I was going to upload so look for El Nino #2. I'll try to do it soon.

    How lucky were you to witness that! Beautiful images! 1 & 3 are my favs. I think the second one might need a tiny bit of straightening - clockwise?

    Great images. I was too lazy to travel to the coast, all of a half hour away, to catch these monstrous waves.

    I am just mesmerized by the beauty of these roaring waves... i dislike one thing about #2 is that the man-made wall seen there challenges the power of the wave which is affecting the beauty of the image

    Like them all, but #1 is my favourite.

    I prefer #1 Roger...the backlight made that transparent wave looks so beautiful. #2 is good too. I like the lower lh part, start of the wave and it is wonderful too if you discount the wall. #3 looks to me like a work of art, a watercolour. Simply beautiful...my favourite is still #1..

    Hello from the IE! I haven't seen the ocean for awhile so these are great. Perfect timing, and the (I assume) bumped saturation works well.
