When Eastern Australia was hit by ex-Tropical Cyclone Oswald late January and early February, it caused certain places to turn into foamy wonderlands, as up to 8 feet of sea foam was blown onto land from the sea. Photographer Brandon Rooney took advantage of the occurrence by pulling out his Canon 7D and documenting the strange scene.

For an idea of how foamy certain parts of Australia were during this storm, check out this viral video that has been going around, which shows a strange encounter between some police officers and a stealthy (and foam covered) car:

You can find more of Rooney’s shots of the foam in this Flickr set, and more of his photography in general over on his website.
