Now that's what I called being at the wrong place at the wrong time! What did you use to protect your camera, cause I think I cld see the sprays at the top right corner in the foreground. 7. for the capture

This isn't that unusual or bizarre. But it is nature. And I like it. Among my top picks.

LOL! Poor fellows. Very busy image though and a bit out of focus. Maybe crop everything out up to the man in blue and yellow on the left? 5 because i laughed

took me a while to realize there were people there...a crop in closer would help while still showing the wave crashing the sea wall...good pic

you could try cropping a bit tighter to give the subject more focus. 4

Love the shot you have my vote, but i would punch the contrast just a tad, for more of a dramatic feel, it just feels flat and crop the bottom out.
