MY HERO

Description

Before the tide came in, this couple was enjoying themselves on a little
offshore island (seen dimly in the background). Before they realized it..
the fog settled in quickly and the tide came in totally surrounding the island!
The girl was too afraid to walk, so her boyfriend carried her to shore, amidst the applause of everyone on the beach!!
(SOOC...real fog!)
