Thor's Well 2
I made 5 different trips to Thor's Well before I captured this image. Planning for this image included watching for a moderate tide, about a 5-foot swell and less than 10 knots of wind. I was also looking for a minor amount of cloud cover to add color to the sky. Something always kept me from capturing a keeper image previously. Now, I have an image that I am happy with.
