The power of a wave in the moment that it breaks fascinates me. I love the ability of a photograph to freeze the moment when the power explodes, the forms that water takes at that moment and the feeling that we as humans get by seeing this moment because we can relate to the release of power from the personal experience of being hit by a wave as it breaks. This wave was created by Hurricane Gonzalo and released its energy at Cape Henlopen.
