Crashing Wave

Challenge #9 in the Creative Genius II series. Hosted by REHS.

Challenge has finished

Let's see a breaking wave, or a wave exploding as it hits something. Focus on showing power and beauty. The subject must be the wave. And the composition should pull the viewer into the image. Close up, just the face of the wave, or full view is OK, Please see my three examples.
