Water crashing against rocks on beach in Portugal under the evening light


Waves breaking on the shore of a beach in Portugal onto volcanic rocks. The sunlight shows the contrast between the different types of rock materials where some are black and others orange. The wave is caught as it crashes onto the rocks and while the rocks are sharp, the waves is taken with a slow shutter speed to show motion. Some water has bounced up to produce a spray effect.
