Playing on the Beach in April
This was shot the same hot April day as the previous photo. It was a gorgeous day but as walked the beach a sudden cold wind came up and swept across the beach chasing most of us off since we were mostly not dressed for it since temps that day had topped off near 90°. If you look along the horizon you can see a defined line of what looks like clouds but I think it was an anomaly caused by the cold air wave that came in since it never did get cloudy. As soon as you got inland the temps were back up in the 80's.

You've captured the summer retreat wonderfully. Love the colourful scene.
Wonderful shot.
This is such a lovely shot, The summer is nigh :D
This is so nice Laurie. Beautiful colors, and framing. Isn't it nice to see the nice weather back with us. :)
Wow - that shallow DoF really makes the colors soar. Great!
Love the DOF, too - it feels so intimate to the action, privileging the umbrella kids over those just beyond. Gorgeous colours.
Very nicely done!
I love his colors, the situation... Great result!
Thank you for sharing :)
What a great summer scene you captured here! A slice of life...
What a great find! Lovely color and composition, I like the low horizon, too!
Very nice snap of people in action on the beach. The blue color of the sea and colorful umbrella is nice.

I like of course the colors and how you composed it.

Such a happy pre-summer image. And, yes...that horizon layer is interesting. Now I know they took the flag from San Francisco's Castro district over to Fresno for the demonstration for marriage equality, but was unaware they were turning it into an umbrella for you folks in Jersey. Love the framing and colors here.
this i really like! perfect beach feel...
Wow, beautiful shot! Lovely composition and great explosion of color from that beach umbrella.
A desire of holidays...
