Stormy Seas

I ventured out today, in the middle of Cyclone Lusi, to see what all the fuss was about. It's certainly not cold, but both my car and myself have now been sand blasted, coated in salt spray and I've been left with a windswept and exotic look. It was very difficult to get a good shot with being constantly buffeted by the winds, and every passing stranger that I leaned on for stability insisted on giving me odd looks before threatening me with a restraining order. It's back indoors for me I'm afraid.
Best viewed large if you can!
cool shot with that water capture

@shannejw Thanks, sheer fluke masquerading as skill but I was sick and tired of being "etched" by sand and salt.

Superb tenacity, Graeme. The picture is very telling of rough seas. Nice and humorous descriptor.

On large, it's quite impressive and dramatic! Very nice!

Now stay in & stay safe til it passes. (I wish there was an edit button the comments),

@bigugly thanks very much
@johenn thanks, and yes, inside right now and relieved for it!

That is real commitment to the cause. Worth it though with this result

I like the low pov.

Haha, the effort was well worth it for this shot! Love the composition and waves in this capture! Bet you could start a new trend with that funky hairdo! :) x

I looks like it was worth the trip. And, just think, now you're sand blasted! win-win! This is a terrific shot.

very dramatic - well worth risking life, limb and sanity

@voiceprintz Thanks - if taken a stencil to hold against me I would have had some interesting "etching"
@essafel Thanks - it wasn't as bad as the media was telling us it would be, and there were loads of other madmen about having a look as well.

You sound like you've been well exfoliated, but lost a few potential friends by your over familiarity. Hope you venture out soon as this photo is amazing!
