Wave series from Shore Acres / Oregon Coast

Here is a set of four images (not the same wave) showing the way the waves were developing over there on Saturday. I'll post more with different vantage points later but I thought these made a good series.

1, 2, 3 and  4.

To give you a size perspective the rail fence up on that bluff is about four and a half feet tall.

Tech note: All were taken with a Canon 40D, Canon 18-40mm L lens and tripod with a remote shutter release. I used manual mode and manual focus all preset to enable me to watch everything unfold and hit the remote as I wanted to.

    Thanks all. It was really amazing to watch. I'm already working on the plans to re shoot it. While it was a great day all of the mist in the air made it tough shooting as far as not being able to get clear shots. I'm going to have to time it with the breeze blowing off shore and not in next time. One thing I have learned about shooting any location is if you go home and look at what you got generally you can do better on the next trip. I need to find the one with the idiot out on the rock and post it. This guy was about as bright as a burned out bulb.

    - Oh Bull!
