I wasn’t quite sure where I was heading for the sunset when I left the house last night, but I wound up at Green Key beach, where I found it was high tide and I regretted my choice immediately. High tide leaves you with exactly one view of the sunset, unless you are this guy…

He may have been standing in the water because a cast of characters had totally taken over the other possible view…

There was something new and different to see on the beach however.

This rock tower was built and rebuilt a few times while I was there. Another photographer and I walked onto the sand to take a picture as this boy was placing a small stone atop his tower.

I called to the kid, “Don’t knock it down yet.”, and the photographer answered, “Oh, I won’t.”

It did appear that the sunset would be extinguished early.


But the sun emerged from the clouds for one last lovely view…
