Stunning image of these children, joyful in the surf of a vividly orange sunset, a moment caught in amber. What's more precious than this? The light is sublime. Dynamic. The patrolling bird is an additional grace note. I find myself focusing on that section of the image, to the virtual exclusion of the rest of it. Not that there's anything wrong with it, it's just so static vis a vis the left half.
Children's enchantment trumps the rectilinear adult world.

Often I find sunsets overrated, but this one is special. Great atmosphere.

WOW! Absolutely LOVE THIS! It's mesmerising, from start to finish. Definitely a JOY to look at, and the mysterious building to the right, almost looks like a castle. Instant fave and my top pick!
