When I first moved to the beach town I'm in, I would spend a lot of mornings driving down to the beach and checking out the waves, going surfing, shooting sunrise pictures and just pondering all the good and bad things going on in my life.

It's a time of day when no one's around...the phones and email is quiet and you can just think.  

At this particular time, I had a lot of pending issues and stress, so this time for me, was my sanctuary. The oncoming wave was my symbol of trouble ahead.
