Canal Rocks, Yallingup

Southwest Western Australia. view map

I was stood on this bridge trying to capture the wild seas
and I got drenched by a huge wave. Luckily my soaked camera was ok.

a riveting scenic capturing the "violence" of the ocean. Glad you were not swept in and your camera was not damaged.
