Picture of the Day: The Power of the Ocean

 

 

 

In this perfectly timed photo by Tiago Pinheiro, we see huge waves crashing into the pier at Praia da Aguda in Vila Nova de Gaia, Portugal. The waves were the result of a powerful storm at sea on October 15, 2012.

In an interview with comolahice.com, Pinheiro explains that he sees the photo as a confrontation between man and nature and likes the contrast between the movement of the water and the solitude of the pier.

Prints are available through tmagesphoto.com. What an awesome display of nature’s power!
