A Wave from Africa | Seychelles
From directly above the Seychelles shoreline, pale cream sand meets vivid turquoise water - the foam line between them irregular and active, the wet sand glowing warm rose where the last wave retreated, the Indian Ocean arriving with full colour from the open water beyond.

"The quality of the images was greater than I could have ever hoped for. I am proud to call myself a collector of his work."
Matthew D. ·
The Seychelles sit in the Indian Ocean roughly 1,500 kilometres east of the African mainland - close enough that the ocean swells arriving at the beaches have crossed thousands of kilometres of open water before they reach the shore. The result is a surf line with genuine energy even on calm days, the waves breaking with colour still in them - the turquoise of the shallow water over white sand holding right through the foam to the shoreline. The sand here is coral and shell ground fine over centuries, pale cream in the dry and warm rose-pink when wet, the colour shift visible from altitude as a narrow luminous band along the water's edge.
The warm cream and vivid turquoise palette makes this one of the most light-filled images in the collection. It works in any interior that needs warmth and brightness - particularly effective in spaces that face north or receive limited natural light, where the image brings the luminosity the room lacks.
