Walking the tide, Mission Beach, San Diego, California, 2010

The tide flows out at sunset, offering this barefoot couple an atmospheric stroll on a wet sandy path strewn with seaweed and feeding waterfowl. My long 415mm telephoto lens compresses the gradual curve of the beach, making it seem as if the distant hills overlooking the sea are nearby. Actually they are miles away.

Tranquility amidst chaos -- I love the incongruity of that concept.

The over all impression I have here is that the couple walk in tranquility in the chaos of the scene.
