"Rodeo Beach Wave-9072"

i forgot about my wet socks a few beats later when a particularly heavy set crashed onshore on the southern end of the beach, and in two minutes I made several memorable images.   This one which was selected by Nikki Wood and the team at Marin Magazine to grace their 2009 cover.
