You're right - usually! However, check out the project Dave Sanford did photographing the waves of Lake Erie!! They are terrifying.

Thanks for that; those shots are quite stunning. I am normally aware that the "Great Lakes" (and I suspect the Black and Caspian Seas (Black Sea included because of the Dardanelles)) can be that rough.

I'd seen the "far shore" in the study, and thought the original subject was somewhere like the English Lake District, Norway or Scotland though.

Perhaps 88grzes would care to comment further?
