It's fabulous!

How long were you there before you snapped this?!


I think I was there for half an hour. I actually had a few beauties I could of entered. I wait patiently for life to happen in front of me, it helps to have a good location. This tiny embankment overlooks the beach. People love to stand or sit there waiting for the sun to set, so it̢۪s perfect for silhouettes.

Thanks for your comment BTW, I love photography because every photo becomes a story, some more than others.

Thanks, it's like someone placed these actors here just for me, it was a candid, the bird was a bonus, it heard my voice and it came, it did it's job and then it left.
