This is a world-famous location in the armpit of America, and if you're from the US, you most likely have heard that reference used in relation to the State of New Jersey. However, I was born and raised in this amazing state, whose motto or nickname is "The Garden State," and for good reasons. This amazing state has a wealth of beautiful, Majestic, and moving play energetic places even though it's one of the most densely populated areas of the country. On this particular freezing cold winter evening I had already spent three hours in the water, when the water temperature was hovering just around 0 degrees Celsius or 32 degrees Fahrenheit, all I then parked myself at the edge of the breaking wave and sand to capture some of the bigger and sour Stan bottom waves coming through. The sky had turned pink because of the sunset that appeared after a nor'easter storm had finished its Wrath of snow, wind, and ice over the area. the beauty of this image is that it's got the sense of a painting on many levels oh, and I've even been asked to use this or other painters to create their own art oh, and that is what makes it so special because the connections people have developed to it is not only and honored to me but represents how an image like this row stutter and have. The tones and color scale are so soft and so soothing that I use this image to calm myself, and just breathe, and bring myself back to that exact moment I pushed the button on my camera to produce this painting like image.
