Sea Breaking against Some Rocks
Waves on the North Devon coastline
Overview
Foaming sea breaks over rocks and a sea wall in what is believed to be Ilfracombe, on the North Devon coast. The study of waves breaking was a popular subject in early moving pictures, and was filmed here by Charles Goodwin Norton to embellish his magic lantern slide shows. Feel free to wave back...
