'Blown away:' Ingersoll, Ont., photographer captures more than just a storm in 'perfect' shot [View all]

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/london/lake-erie-wave-face-1.6663661

Most people avoid the beach on a stormy day. Not Cody Evans.

The howling wind and churning waters are what draw the Ingersoll, Ont., photographer to Lake Erie regularly, with the mission of capturing the perfect shot — and last Friday was his lucky day.

Of the more than 10,000 photos he took, one appeared to look like a face.

Evans said it he thinks it resembles the face of Poseidon, the ancient Greek god of the sea and storms.
