14th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
A burst of ocean spray at Thunder Hole.

This photo captures the wonders of Thunder Hole in Acadia National Park. As the waves roll towards the shore, they flow into a natural underwater cave and then explode upwards with a thunderous roar. It was a beautiful crisp evening in May when I took this photo.
