This is visually stunning. The lone figure, paired with the unsettled waves in the background and dark clouds creeping ever-closer, makes it all very ominous-looking. Very well done, my friend!

This certainly looks fantastic, great stormy looking cloud cover with that lone figure in the ocean pool.

Never heard of Yamba, so I searched for it, nice looking place.

Mick.

There is a deeply unsettling quality here.

Thanks all
Always like a picture that evokes imagination.
It was taken last Wednesday midmorning on a very hot day, lots of people around, all in the timing.
Yamba and near by Angourie are a nice place to spend a week.

I agree that this image is very unsettling but I’m not quite sure why it has that effect on me.

@awty I’m glad you pointed out it was a very hot day. That never occurred to me. I immediately assumed it was freezing cold and that this was one of those brave souls who swims in Winter!

Ha! Perhaps I shouldn't of given any info and just let the cards fall.
