2. Look at the building to the left
It's about six stories, give or take. That would make this about 20 stories tall??

3. Looks like a wind-blown splash from a large wave hitting a breakwater or sea wall
The actual height of the wave may be 50 feet or more, but the splash exaggerates it greatly at one point. It's like a blowhole effect.

Very impressive photo.
