The lady in the background was not planned... I was simply taking shots of the hat and when I got home I saw that there was a person standing by the beach. At first I thought I would discard this image yet when I enlarged it on my screen it became my favorite by far! Her black dress couldn't match the hat better. So in some aspects this is a "lucky shot" :o) Thanks for the wonderful comments! :o) #9446603

Serendipitous indeed, Susana -- I thought you waited and waited for just the right person -- or maybe even asked someone to walk out there for you. Terrific composition and lovely suggestions in this one and the contrast between the bold black/white/red palette and the soft pastels of the background is great, too. #9448858

WOWOWOWOW!!! Simplicity and brilliance all captured in one shot... WINNER in my opinion!! #9456449

Well, the soporific sun and mojitos didn't stop you from capturing this creative image, Susana. I like it very much. #9456658

I wish I HAD thought of posing someone at that spot! As is, I can't take the credit... but I'm glad she walked into my set up... LOL... Thanks Datha, Nikki, Kara (I know what it means when you make a statement like that, Kara) and Mitch (Your comment made me laugh, Mitch)!! #9469333
