If you've been to Sunset Beach you will have seen this scene. The tourists jump off the buses, get their pix, and jump back in. I've watched it time and time again - I love it. Here a surfer in the background looks a little deeper into the world before him. Photo: Dean Dampney.
People love staring at waves, because waves are beautiful. When was the last time you saw someone staring at a soccer field when there was no one running around kicking a ball? Big waves have that terrifying beauty, while small waves are just pretty and serene. Put someone on a surfboard on top of those waves, and you have a recipe for splendor. Or in this case, a recipe for 82 of them.
