A picture says a thousand words, and I add my two cents

Big Wave From Down Under

 After a couple trips to some northern Los Angeles County beaches on labor day weekend, I’ve gained a renewed appreciation for the power of ocean waves. During my trips that weekend the ocean had strong under currents and large waves, probably about 6 ft. or so. This wave is from Australia and it’s well over 6 ft. From the looks of it, it’s probably 20 ft! I can only imagine what it would feel like to be in the water with waves that high and powerful coming at you! As dangerous as it looks, I think it would be alot of fun to be floating around and swimming near waves that big. No doubt they’re not for beginners though (don’t try this at home kids ;) )

    I love these kind of pictures. The oceans beautiful in action but in pictures it’s thought provoking…. Miss Zuma huh?

    Yes I miss the beach. Summer went by too fast! I’ll most likely go again soon but it’ll probably be too cold to swim.
