AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

I love to look out at the ocean on a stormy day, with my feet safely on land :) Great photo!
What a stormy sea. I sure wouldn't have been standing on the end of that pier like those people are.
Undertow is another good word.
Stirring tide, the light makes it.
wonderful interpretation indeed!
To me the sea, and especially the waters around Australia is fascinating, because during the war my dad had sailed those seas so often on his way to Perth. Thank you for sharing!
I've heard that undercurrents can be quite dangerous (or am I confusing it with undertow? Are they the same?). Anyway, it looks very inviting!
Wonderful stormy shot! Lovely.

Very stormy seas!
Really gives a good impression of the magnitude of nature.
Lovely image and Haiku.
That is a wavy, moving, busy ocean. Nice shot.
I was hoping to go for a swim, but it looks a bit rough.

Swimmers get into trouble in Lakes Erie and Ontario all the time as the undercurrents are so bad...

Just the word 'undertow' is ominous. This is a beautiful shot. Nice work capturing the water's texture.
Happy Wednesday!

Beautiful photo but undercurrents have always scared me.
i miss the piers over the atlantic... the pacific,, at least in this area is lethal,, it kills so many people every year,, just pops off with a killer wave and drags them right in... we had like 4 deaths over the thanksgiving holiday....
