I have just spent 10 minutes searching the titles to find a place to start this thread. How I hate titles for photos. The only reason I put one here is to enable me to post.

The other thing I hate is the bloody centering thing. And the 're' and 'our' corrections.
I need another coffee.

Names are just poetic ways of removing 99.99990999907 of everything else in the universe, besides this current representation you are sharing with us.

A mother nursing or a fellow being shot before a firing squad are generally self-explanatory, but for everything else, a title is a generous guide what it's about.

Tom, with respect i'm hard pressed to find any interest in this scene, other than it being a shot of a family on a beach. It doesn't really say anything more than that. If there is a message, i'm not getting it.
Also, I'm not sure about the 'portrait' aspect of this scene especially with the flat-ish horizon line and the featureless sky.

What were your thoughts on what you saw and photographed here?

Regards...
 
I quite like it the way it is. Who knows what drained out with the tide.

It does appear to be a photo. The title makes me wonder whether there might be some other explanation.
