Break by peterdegraaff

Break

..between the walls.

Last night huge thunderstorms hit our region as a cold front hit southeastern Australia. In the highlands 20 kilometers from us it snowed. On the coast this morning it was only 3 or 4 degrees celsius, gale force winds, torrential rain and a predicted 5 meter swell. This afternoon when there looked to be a brief break in the weather I headed back to Bombo Point, hoping for spectacular dynamic wave action. It is great to photograph a place in all kinds of weather.

@emjay8 said for Get Pushed 12 "I have always admired your beach landscapes and been in awe of all your old cameras and the shots you get with film, I know you have shown us pictures of your cameras but can you show us some photos of the processes you go through either in selecting photo subjects or behind the scenes of the photo taking process?"
