Thanks to all you voters, this is my best result so far.
For those interested the place is Ocean beach, 20 mins south of Hastings,NZ North Island.
Its usually deserted except for a few surfers, this in spite of the 160,000 people living within 30 mins by car.

Lovely image. Seems that even the air is granular.

Very nice setting. One of your subjects has that 90 degree alfred hitchcock silouette stance.

Nice shot, but I don't think it fully fits the challenge.

Stunning light! This is a beautiful, peaceful, moody image. The subtle tone/palette is very effective...the mist enhances this mystery...adds to the calm...the title contradicts/detracts from the image for me...regardless, great image!

Is this photo sending me the message that im thinking. Can you respond to me, im really curious. Ok, here's my thought, there is an older couple, the women sideways, and the man facing away from us. The wife is asking the husband if they can leave the beach now, but he husband is busy staring at what appears to be a young attractive girl lying on the beach, and he doesn't want to leave.

These are my thoughts, correct me if im wrong, im really into this on, nice work!!

Nice moody image, like the composition, although I'm not sure about the two figures in the centre.
