[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Today's shot was taken along the Oregon Coastline near Beverly Beach. My girlfriend and I went for a walk along the vast expanse of the beach near our campground. The colors in the sky reflected perfrectly on the wet sand. As the waves broke they slowly came ashore without more than 1 inch of water but continued to travel inland because of the length of the beach. This cool, wet landscape was in stark contrast to the 95+ degree temperatures we had only an hour earlier on our drive down to the coast.

Let me know what you think.

lovely composition and monotones

'lo Eric. I can't believe no one has stopped by to tell you how much this is a dreamy photograph. Pretty in pink, and pretty as in our deepest and most secret dreams. We can't ever, ever be alone as long as the waves stumble from the ocean to caress our feet gently and smoothly as a kiss. Love it.

soletude, some times we need this walks alone on a calm place to put the mind in order.

Nice photo and reflex.

Regards
Andre

Hello Eric
You managed to create a wonderful reflection of lonelyness. Somebody walking along the beach, full of thoughts or memories.
Interesting composition. Thanks for sharing,
Katia

Hi Eric, you've done very well with this almost monochromatic photograph. The huge empty space in the foreground adds to the sense of loneliness associated with the figure walking along the beach, further emphasised by the blending of the beach into the sea. An almost surreal result. Quite beautiful. Stephen
