This new digital image is created in the spirit of the Great Romantic artists of the past……Casper David Friedrich (Wanderer Above The Sea Of Fog), J M W Turner, etc.
…….the awesomeness of Nature compared to mankind.
But instead of fearing the power we can flow with it to give us “the ride of our lives”.

Gorgeous. You make me homesick for the ocean. Must be beautiful in a big way where you live.
Thanks Silvia……it is a wonderful part of the world, particularly along the coast.
Tremendous shot…just beautiful.
Thanks Dalo……it needs a bigger screen to get the full effect.
Nicely done Robert, certainly works better when clicked and enlarged. Emphasizes the awesome power of the ocean and I understand the ultimate dream of the surfer, the epic ride of a lifetime…so many visual metaphors in this image and your words…
Metaphors!…….love them John…thanks for picking up on them.
Here is a link to possibly the largest wave ever surfed…….how we love challenges!
