Photographer’s Note

I was having a walk at the beach during one of my leaves from the military when I happened to stumble upon this sign.
It turns out that this beach, Sola stranda (Sola beach) has at least 3 major creeks running into the sea.
This beach has at one point a couple of years ago been elected one of the best beaches in the world, it's very popular with wind surfers. And if the temperature is right it's a great place to go with you family in the summer.
So seeing this sign sort of crept me out, since when I was younger I had been swimming around the areas where these creeks went into the sea.
So enjoy the view of counter morale!

Hei O.J.

Funny text. It really makes one think, doesn't it... Thanks for sharing.

Hi odd,
A very unusual and shocking sign. What surprised me is that some people had the courage tu put it on the beach. In France, it would be immediatly a scandal !
This picture is interesting as an ecological account. But it lacks of punch. I propose to you a WS. I only adjust levels and saturation to intensify the contrast between the blue sky on the left and the grey, threatening sky on the right. I think that it gives more force to the sign.
Olivier.
