Beach Party

I was sitting on the far side of the lake, and had to shoot through the trees with my telephoto lens, but I was still able to capture the essence of the fun filled afternoon at the beach. It was another hot one today, and if you had the oportunity, the beach was the place to be.

I love it! It feels very voyeuristic

I love this! It almost looks like it could be the 1950s... A fav for me.

[Mike Llewellyn]

Nice framing with the leaves on this.

[Donna]

There's something about the setting and processing that reminds me of old time Hollywood! Great capture! It could be a movie set. ;-)

[Jane]

Love this shot and you have captured the heat of the day and the fun they were having extremely well! ♥

[Ade Akinyede]

Sounds like you all need a cool down over there with that heat wave. Great capture and framing, Rick.
