until I saw this picture,
my next thought, Photoshopped, but it was not, what is happening here is that it is a picture of a cross sea, it is a sea
state with two wave systems travelling at oblique
angles, this may occur when water
waves from one weather system continue despite a shift in wind, waves generated by the new wind run at an angle to the old,
creating a shifting, dangerous pattern, until the older waves have dissipated,
they create a sea hazard among the most perilous, this picture was taken at the
tip of Île de Ré, it is an island off the west coast of France near La
Rochelle, on the northern side of the Pertuis d'Antioche strait, how amazing
that the waves should make such geometric patterns.
