’Tis the season for big northwest swells to start rolling in here. Happy days for surfers, not so much for snorkelers. The first of the season hit west-facing shores over the past two days. By and large the swells weren’t too bad, but every so often a big swell, such as this one, would crash ashore.
No birds or small children were harmed in the taking of this photo! Posted for Bushboy’s Last on the Card. See more responses here.

The kid was quite safe, but I liked his movement when the water shot up so high!
