This is the image just prior to the final shot. The shot was taken while I was waist deep in water. The waves had crashed past me and up a seven foot cliff. The dancers stood their ground. The next wave surrounded their rock when I made the photograph. I moved the dancers off of the rock, as the next wave completely covered where they had been.
