Thanks everyone for the comments! Yes, it really was 3AM. I had actually started getting ready for bed, but I had that stir-crazy feeling where I didn't think I could sleep. So, I decided to ride my bike down to the beach bars near our house in hopes of finding some interesting late night subects. I got down there at 1 AM, had a couple beers at my favorite spot. It is one of those images that I got exactly what I was hoping for. Its not uncommon for a couple to be out at the beach after a long night of drinking, but it sure IS uncommon for them to stand almost exactly still for 30sec while the shutter is open. Since the lens I was using is a prime 50mm I had to get very close to the couple. The whole experiences gave me that eerie feeling that you get, when you feel like you shouldn't be something but decide do it anyway! It was a intense, because I didn't them see me or know what I was up to. I am sure many folks had similar experiences while taking a photo.
This image brings me right back to that intense moment. its certainly a person favorite, which is probably more related to the experience than the image itself. Thanks again for the helpful comments!

Interesting shot that is abstract enough to keep the viewer guessing. Nice job |

I love the way the beach turned out here...a small nit: I would have liked the two people to be a bit more blurred...they are just too sharp here to make me think of form rather than identifying the players. Just my taste at least. |
