Surfing is a favorite activity at the beaches of many thrill-seeking tourists. For those who do not know, or do not dare to surf, sitting and watching the waves crash onto the shore is an extremely attractive experience. That beauty is recorded in a new book called Amazing Waves, a collection of photos by many authors who are professional photographers and surfers.
More than 80 photos realistically and clearly show the power and charm of ocean waves, making viewers feel like they are sitting in front of the ocean.
The book also details how a wave is formed, how they are forecasted, and what you can do to protect yourself from them. Roger Sharp, one of the most active photographers in the book, says: "The power and beauty of waves is one of the most wonderful, captivating things on the planet."
Whether you're a frequent surfer or have never seen the ocean, you can't help but be impressed by these photos.
