Thanks for the comment on "Monhegan Surf 1". I did try some shots with slower shutter as you suggest, but didn't like the results. Unlike waterfalls where most of the water is flowing more or less together, the flow patterns of water in breaking waves seems to be much more chaotic. When I went to the slower shutter, it just made the waves into big white blobs. Maybe if I got the speed "just right", I could get the effect you suggest, but on this trip I didn't. But hey, that's a reason to go back!
