High tide came this morning around the time I took the following photos. It combined with a brisk wind to create intricate waves, some reflecting perhaps the anguish, even anger, some of us have felt over the events of the past few days in Paris.
Wave breaking on beach.
The two photos below were taken within a fraction of a second of each other. I converted the first one to monochrome. Let me know which one you prefer.

Going with the color, Hien. Reminds me of Chihuly glass–gorgeous!

Nice photo, Hien! I prefer the colour one. My reason is that there is not enough contrast to add power to the B&W one. The colour one gives me more.
Have a wonderful day.

Great timing,Hien,you caught the forceful huge waves just before breaking on the shore!A wonderful post peacefully protesting for the recent tragic events.In the monochromatic one there is more intensity,I like it more.Oftentimes colour distracts our attention.

I think the monochrome really gives a wonderful effect. I think the press ion of anguish and turmoil so well expressed in these.

The first picture is just breath catching, nicely done! Of the last two, I like both very well but if I had to pick I’ll go with the color.
