Digitally recorded ocean adventure with natural sounds only - no music or narrative. Produced by Dan and Gordon Gibson. "Wave Watching" is perhaps the most captivating pastime for any ocean adventurer. Each new wave stimulates the imagination, penetrates the memory, and delights the mind. The countless moods, variety of surf, and the solitude of sound gives the ocean its universal appeal. Waves fall in wheeling symmetry – splintering, overlapping, entangling, then settling, leaving abstract marvels of the originals, Mounting again, they peak and twist; blues, greens, and blinding whites, Wind frays their crowns, yet they continuously work towards land. Rocks are enveloped, routes dissected through shoals, and in the rock gardens the waves froth and foam in the glistening rays of the intense sun. 

At the shoreline, the water's recession begins. The patterns of withdrawal across sand and through chattering pebbles transcends beauty. Glassy silhouetted images ignite along undisturbed beaches, Rocks rise from sand in monumental forms, pillars that stand as gates for this sanctuary of living creatures. Amongst all this elegance, however, there is nothing so soothingly intimate as the sounds of this majestic coast. The distinct yet delicate sound of skimming waves along serene shores contrasts with the resounding turbulence of waves confronting rock walls with untamed ferocity. A unique journey of pure sound and visual ecstasy awaits. Dan Gibson's name is familiar to many as a film-maker and recordist in the Audubon Wildlife Theatre, 78 episode TV series; The Wildlife Cinema TV series; To the Wild Country, and Wild Canada TV special series; The TV special Dan Gibson's Nature Family; Profiles of Nature TV series, and the theatrical feature, Wings in the Wilderness.
