This particular location was ‘going off’, in surfers terms, a point where even the smallish waves were still powerful enough to slam the small cliff buttresses and send spray skyward, but the spray was voluminous and wetting - problematic for photography as the lens gets covered in seconds and every drop on the lens becomes a backlit orb ! 

I studied the rocks in front of me and calculated where the waves might cover, and found  dry pinnacle on which to set up my tripod, essential equipment today. I stood smugly on my dry fortress and waited for the waves and light to come together and shot a few frames, but then a white wall of water started to approach! Fear set in as one exceptional wave rose up and from a different angle. There was nothing I could do but to brace myself as it rose up over the rocks and pushed past me like a mini Tsunami, the sea reaching my thighs! The force was strong but the tripod and legs remained firm against the impact and thank goodness, because if not I'd have fallen backwards into a small gully. Whilst I would not have drowned I would have injured myself and lost £10K of camera gear!

Print Info - An important read

ABOUT THE PRINTS:

Glyn's prints are all produced on soft-textured, archival cotton-rag paper, using archival pigment inks. The manufacturer's estimated lifespan for these prints is over 200 years when behind glass & viewed under artificial lighting.

Each print is signed & titled by the artist, and the editioned prints are obviously numbered as well. Glyn limit's his print editions to short quantities, so you are purchasing much rarer artworks than the mass-produced prints seen in furniture & home stores.

Editions range from 3 to 30 copies in the A2 & A1 size, and just 5 copies in the A0 size.
