Sand castle at Scheveningen Beach
Posted By: Rense, 05-27-2009, 11:33 AM

The last two days, I worked in the dune area near The Hague. Yesterday night, we went for a dinner to Scheveningen, and we found this sand castle at the beach. In the background the hotels at the boulevard. Both are made with my newly aquired Pentax-A 28/2.5 @f/8.0, ISO200, 1/125"

very clever juxtapositioning of sand scenes with regular buldings. Nice work.

I love the irony of the juxtapositioning JMR mentioned. Great job, my friend.

Rense,

I saw this on the PPG. It got a solid thumbs up from me as I thought the composition and execution was very good. Everything seemed to mesh here. Excellent.
