okay, so I wasn't the only person who left footprints in the sand at coast guard beach that day... there were two others... the young woman looking seaward in the distance, and her boyfriend, who was actually out in the water attempting to surf the waves... he had a full wetsuit on when he went in, but, hey, seeking the perfect wave in a gale in december off a deserted beach might be called tempting fate... call me timid but I'd rather go home and have some hot chocolate to warm up...;-)))

I envy your wide angle lens and that is what I asked Santa for for Christmas...well, at least I passed around the hat :)

Great shot and narrative..You've uploaded a story as well as this marvelous pic.

Great photo and I'm with PJ. Hot chocolate sounds good. I would say guy is crazy in water and fisherman will catch him in seine.
Love the sky.

Reality and fantasy are properties in the mind of the viewer. Your picture stands so well on its own. Knowing about you and the swimmer adds detail to a picture already loaded with a rich story.

no .. no! I was there too! .. But I am so light on the feet..I musta just skipped so gently it didn't leave any marks! ..

The sea was lovely that day..albeit a tad chilly, but I was there when the chap re-surfaced with a huge fish!!!...I enjoyed a 'fish snack' while you enjoyed your chocky drink! ..

Lovely work Mary...wish I had fetched me camera! ..

The sand looks almost Martian or moon-like. Great sweeping composition set off by the orange jacketed girl.
