Yeah I get to be the first one to comment!! Yippeee!! I love this. I love the smallness of the umbrella (ORANGE) against the expanse of the ocean (BLUE)!! Love the wave coming in too. Perfect timing on your part. This is spectacular. You are just too good!!

There how's that for comment #1 (LOL)!! Hope you got back inside before the rain hit!!

  Excellent Darren.. I know what you mean about watching the rain come across the ocean.. Although I didnt get to see it come across the ocean I saw it come over the gulf of Mexico many times.. It is a beautiful thing to watch.. And no way Marcie.. I would have stayed right there waited for the rain to hit..But then again.. I dont know Darren.. He may be thinking "Sugar Melts!! I better get indoors straight away!!" LOL!!! Great shot Darren !!!

  We saw some storms like this roll in when we were in Daytona in June. Really cool to watch...reminds me that I need to post one of the pics I took. Unfortunately, I had no red umbrella in my view! Just a great shot, Darren. That umbrella sure makes the shot! Welldone.

  Darren, this is a another great multi-level photo, with sky, rainclouds, open sea, that wonderfully captured breaking wave, foam, and finally, that RED umbrella! The eye travels a diagonal from top to bottom, rewarded all the way. What a cool shot!
