I'm fascinated by the ocean and the many moods it takes on close to the shore. This past week in North Carolina was testament to that as the conditions were calm and glassy, with 2 foot waves when we first arrived. After a couple days, Hurricane Emily sent clean 4 to 6 foot waves from HispaƱiola at a steep southern angle to the beach which made for great surfing. By the end of the week, however, the surf had become choppy, rough, disorganized, and blew in from the north. Below are some of the ocean textures I captured, ranging from powerful waves pounding the sandbars to delicate currents rippling and drifting across the intertidal zone.
