During our final few days in this beach town, the ocean waves became higher and rougher due to a hurricane down in Mexico. I used a very fast shutter speed (one two thousandth of a second) to freeze one of them as it hit the beach, revealing various degrees coloration within the exploding wave. To bring the image to life, I include a sole seagull in the foreground, watching the spectacle from a high and dry vantage point.
