Time After Time
... doing the same o'l same o'l

After hiking up the 3km stretch of Tanjung Aru Beach in Sabah, I regrouped with my parents at some foodstalls enjoying a pint of fresh iced honeydew juice (yes! a pint!) and some satays. I took this shot as a waitress cleaned a table in front of me after the occupants left. Out beyond is the beach itself, as the sun sets in the far horizon...

sun flares onto silhouettes aren't easy on film especially when only one shot was used... i'm so glad this turned up perfectly! Thank you!

well thanks for getting that song stuck in my head now...

but anyways, i love this shot. just the way the sun highlights her face, the shining backround...
and no words have failed me...again. great.

it's actually quite inspiring...her face and all. i love shots like that.
this definitely does what it says, making tha familiar strange and vice versa...

as always, grat work, a definite fav.
