There were lots of big, round bellies at the beach. I tried to surreptitiously shoot the one on the left with a “knee shot”. You know, like the “hip shot” where you don’t view-find, you just press the shutter release while the camera hangs by your hip, except I was sitting with the camera on my knee.
Anyway, I like the way this one turned out despite nearly completely missing my subject and getting a very wonky horizon. It feels like one of those funny messages you get on your answering machine when someone has called you and didn’t hang up properly.
