a reef emerges

In north-western Australia, the tidal range is such that on a falling tide, seawater covering a reef at high tide takes longer to drain away from the reef than it takes for it to be swallowed up again. The result is hours of water cascading down the reef's slopes.

The shots of the phenomenon are taken from a zodiac in rough water, which makes it difficult to keep the camera steady.
