While taking photos at the waterfront had been watching this group with 2 children on the beach in front of where I was shooting, after about 15min. the group split and the others moved about 100ft away from this girl and set up on the sand again, I found this strange keeping an eye on her as I was viewing for a photo. Shortly after the girl put on the heavy coat even though it was a beautiful sunny day, at this point I turned the camera around onto her and shot some photo’s while the rest of the group kept looking over at her as she appeared to be crying, I had stopped shooting by now and was intrigued by what was going on, I saw one of the group use a mobile phone, and about 10 minutes later a man and a woman arrived and helped the girl off the beach to a car being very unsteady on her feet, the remainder of the group walked past me and I asked was the girl alright, one replied that she was taken to the hospital as she appeared to be drugged, when all was quiet I thought even though the subject was not facing the camera that maybe it would fit this challenge.
