Photographer’s Note
The Second Wave is very close to the Main Wave (about three hundred meters south) It's as breathtaking as the more famous Main Wave, so it's definitely worth a visit, especially at sunset.

Incroyables courbes!!! De plus les couleurs sont magnifiques.
La netteté est excellente et ce que j'apprécie beaucoup, c'est la qualité du reflet dans l'eau.
Toutes mes félicitations pour cette superbe prise.

Incredible landscape, you came up with a striking image for your first contribution. I like the smooth curves of the wave against the rocky structure above. there is just something difficult to grasp in that geological marvel, my eyes seem to find some kind of collage about it, so uncannny it is.

I like how the sky and the water balence each other on the left. You have chosen a very good point of view the shadows throught the middle ofthe shot look great.

Hi Karsten
What a magnificent spectacle you're showing us! Light is splendid as well the colors! The repetitive waves are very pleasant to the eye and one more time Nature shows its beauty.
Well done
