Wow! What a shot! It’s kind of an Alice in Wonderland kaleidoscope sneak peek into Timothy Leary’s head as capture by Ryan Bepu.

Thanks for posting. I'm very intrigued by the vortices that appear as ''ropes'' running at 90d to wave travel. Ahhh, the mysteries of breaking waves - one of the reasons surfing never gets old....

Hi,

That the best underwater photo I have seen for some time. Where was it taken?

Thank you

WaveFin

...no doubt only RYAN knows...

Great photo.
