Lazy wind

Some shots from Breaker Bay at the height of the storm yesterday. Taken by Molly and me.




The images are much less dramatic than the real life was unfortunately. I would have taken more, particularly of the giant waves rolling into Houghton Bay, but feared for my cameras safety in the salt spray laden air, plus the wind made it very difficult to stand safely and aim. Thus discretion proved the better part of valour on this occasion.
The rocks above are about 200m offshore and getting slammed by 3-4m ish swells if you want some perspective. Not the worst I have seen, but intimidating enough I think.
