Me amongst the waves
Since starting out on Steem I've always had a lot of people ask, how big are the waves in my photos and how close I am to them. The wait is over, thats me sitting in the middle in the water. Majority of my wave images are from this break, luckily enough I live a short 5 minute drive from this wave.
This is shot on a big scary southerly swell, I ended up getting throw on to the rocks when I first jumped out on this particular morning. Mornings like this can be scary but I love being amongst this type of energy mother nature can produce.

Man this looks amazing, Is it edited ? I mean the color of the wave looks spectacular and out of this world!
Thanks! I don't believe so, the wave is extremely shallow and when the light hits the back of the wave it really brings out the blues
What a huuuge wave! Okay, I know that there are probably much bigger ones, but even this little monster is enough to give me chills.
Yeah they get pretty crazy out here thats for sure
Love it!
Are you going to enter @intrepidsurfer surf shot contest? There's not many people participating. I would love to see it grow. Your stuff is killer!
Thanks mate! I totally forgot, i'll jump on to it now!
Thanks for posting this with the scale. That's a mean multi faced monster. Have you ever shot down at Shipstern Bluff ? It is some wave.
Love the light in this shot. Hope your well mate.
Thanks dude! Na I haven't, i'd love to though one of those waves where you just have to be super ready because the swells pop out of no where and its a fairly long trip from Sydney.
