I took this back in September, but never got around to posting it. It's had quite a bit of work done, including getting rid of a volleyball net. This is really some homeless person camping on the beach. The dark mass under the umbrella is a mound of his possessions.

Contrast in so many ways, especially once I know the story.

Really like the minimalism, horizon and point of colors. As well as the bit of mystery in what / who is behind the colorful umbrella.

I thought this was something completely different, until I read your description. Beautiful picture!

A photo can certainly convey something different from what it really is. I would have thought the umbrella was was a young couple in love picnicking in the park. Not the cliche I expected!

Not seeing the beach makes it look like it is along the road somewhere. Tells a story.

This is so sad. The colorful umbrella just seems so out of place in the middle of nowhere. Love the dreamy processing.
