I was amused to watch two girls trying to take a photograph of a couple marked-up popsicle
sticks against the background of a wet rock; they seemed to be a little skittish about getting
wet. After finally getting their shot, the girl in blue was checking out the resulting photo
when she was surprised by a big splash. |

Did you notice above that the girl in the blue sweatshirt was barefoot? A while after
shooting the series above I observed that one of her flip-flops was missing... and then found.
Uh-oh! It eventually drifted back to shore, so I fished it out of the water and returned it
to its rightful owner. |
