The story behind the image
One might say: “A sun drawn by hand into the beach. What is so special about that?” – And I’d reply with: “The colors and composition are beautiful.” Maybe not a masterpiece, but a good way to provoke some positive emotions. Which are badly needed at the beginning of the week, and at the end of the summer. 🙂
Of course, it is just a fun shot, but the looong shadows thrown by the tiny sand drops are awesome. What’s more, the light of the sun at sunrise time is incredibly warm, and it is even visible in the image. And I like the way the sun is surrounded by algae.
Nice, very nice.
