I really do enjoy a good timelapse picture of the ocean. The light on the moving water paints extrodinary images that are different every single time.
These really are not hard to do. You need good location and proper lighting conditions, and a bit of patience, but its nowhere near as difficult as getting a good portrait.
For me, I'll take a picture such as this at or after sunset using a wide angle lens tighten to its highest f-stop to maximize the duration of the shot. Good composition is very important, as is getting a vantage point where the waves are doing something dynamic and iteresting.
I usually shoot these shots anywhere from 5-30 seconds.
More examples here.
