On The Kelp-Road, Annotated

Or, Foggy Arch Beckons.

I like the slanty bit of swell lifting up here with the arch-rocks straight and steady in the background.

Look at the satiny texture of that water too.  The kelp has smoothed out that swell so well.  Note also the splash of a breaking wave behind and to the right of the wave face in front of us.  There's some of the energy that the kelp is leveling out.  (Though "leveling out" may seem a strange phrase when we are looking at the rolling incline, yes?)
