Description
|
|
|
|
With dramatic images up to 19 x 11 inches, this book presents a photographic portrait of the sea at its most powerful, as storm winds and waves pound cliffs, ships, and lighthouses and other bravely built structures at the edge of the ocean. Massive waves froth, as rescue boats appear overwhelmed; houses huddled along the quays of fishing villages endure the sea pounding their walls; even icebergs are struck hard by tempest waves. But here too are poetic images of the waves themselves, removed from any threatening impact to simply curl and break in sinuous forms, as well as those humans drawn to ride such waves on sport boats and surfboards.
