Wild west coast

This photo is for my two South Island sisters who live in Central Otago - about as far from the sea as you can be in NZ. This afternoon at the coast, there was lots of wind, some rain and heaps of frothy bubbles - I nearly always wear gumboots when taking beach photos in the winter, so had fun wandering through the froth - was about as deep as my gumboots!

Love the pov. I love walking on the beach in winter, deserted and no pressure to go swimming

[Karen]

Great shot, certainly very frothy.

Wow west coast snow... great shot..

[Andrea]

Beautiful. Love the beach any time, but this looks especially beautiful and moody 😊

@deliad @andreajoy Yep - you two got your own 'beaches' - but no salt and not so much in the way of sand!

Love all the foam. Looks so treacherous and wild :-)

[Helen]

wow how strange.... is this pollution ? Great landscape shot

[Dione Giorgio]

I remember seeing something like this once and thought it was pollution but I think it is a natural phenomenon. Beautiful shot.

@dizzyd no it's just what happens at times with certain winds.

[Lara]

Fav, Wonderful seascape, I wouldn't go to the beach today the wind has been freezing all day.

[Gnome]

Great shot. Lovely blue tones.

[Myrna O'Hara]

A great, serene shot. The muted colours work really well - Lucy

[Pat Knowles]

All that froth....wild seas indeed!

[Denise fuller]

Fantastic

[Françoise]

Great shot - we are very cold at the moment here on the South Island.

[Sue Wilde]

I absolutely love the tones in this shot and the restricted pallette

[Dianne]

@swilde yes - the colours are pretty much just as it was - although I was trying out the polarising filter at the time.

[Marnie]

Holey, moley Bat(wo)man, what a fantastic sight. Fav.

[Christine]

Great shot.
