Interesting that this person is guarding the beach in Tennis Shoes. I love the lighting and contrast.

a great idea - i just wish this was in color so we could see the life guard orange float etc a bit better - in addition - i thought most lifeguards didn't wear shoes while at the beach

Nice Image - Really liked this one - Great POV - Interesting angle and some thought has gone into this. The one thing though that really bugs me and would have completed this image is if you had just had the subject remove his shoes! I think the whole thing gets let down because of this - Clearly he is not a life guard as they would never wear trainers on the beach like this and it just makes the whole image look fake with the title. Still a nice shot though.

I would have liked the image better if the shoes has been a little darker thereby adding more contrast to the image.
