Too close to reality from where I stand.

I've seen worse sights than that. Unfortunately...
Best wishes,

Isn't a forced 'I AM enjoying this' look? Great capture

Brilliantly Captured. The expressions are just super.

After a few years of this and the probably wonder why they have skin cancer.

But until then they are happy to get brown (or red) as quickly as possible.

Altogether a very good capture.

Thanks for the positive comments. I didn't ask permission or know these people - hope nobody recognizes themselves on this site!

Works well in Black and White.

The mono approach hides the skin damage! A bit invasive, as you admit Paul, but a typical beach scene well captured!

Imagine the shot if it had been taken with the Pentax 645Z IR!

Like our UK tourists in Australia. When the return to UK, they look like lobsters
