Love the intensity of the waves . Just beautiful !!

Thanks. They are indeed very intense and this spot is already over the safe zone area, but I know the place well and the ocean and also when the more intense waves approach they compress the air below the peer through the decompression slits it has, so they give us and advanced warning and as long as we stand in a dry patch of the peer, it is safe ... if there are no dry patches on the peer then it means it is not safe and one must not go.

So cool! Nice capture!

Thanks. Its a magical place very dear to me here in Porto, only 4km from my house, so whenever I have the time and the weather is good for big waves, I go there and relax taking photographs and enjoying the place, the Atlantic Ocean, the waves ...
