[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This was taken at Cape Recife in Port Elizabeth South Africa,There is a lighthouse and some of the most incredible beaches (wildlife refuge/park) with incredible rock formations and an abundance of birds and other wildlife.Often you see whales and a lot of dolphin/porpoise seals and rarely penguins.And some human animals standing up to the elements-He survived that wave and a few more like it,then I left.

Hi, Avi,

thanks for sharing this great capture of a magnificent seascape. one can hear the wave splash and feel the strong wind from your photo. it must be extremely dangerous to stand against the big waves like that :P I just hope he did go home safely by the end of that day.

chrs,
Man Yee
