Life at the Beach

Posted by Viewfinder (Bradenton, FL, United States) on 3 July 2008 in Art & Design and Portfolio.

One of our favorite Anna Maria Island restaurants has an outdoor seating/dining area which overlooks the beautiful Gulf of Mexico and its white sandy beach. On sunny, hot days it's great to get under the shade of one of these big umbrellas with something nice and cold to drink.

Simple and beautiful like a small gift which tells a lot.

Sounds good to me! Something cool to drink while sitting in the shade watching the water! Nice shot!

Great framing on this one...I like how it's a bit offset!
Go Bella! : )

Love the framing. The second umbrella(?) in the background is slightly distracting, but still a great summer shot!

@Tracey: Thanks Tracey. Yes, it's a second umbrella; they're all really close together and to have cropped it out would have cut out more than I wanted of the main subject, so... thus it is.

A bit of shade is a nice place to be in the heat of summer - nice shot!! Love the geometry.....

I wouldn't mind curling up under that umbrella with a good book and a nice cool drink of lemonade or something similar. Great capture VF. Give Bella a pat for me.
