Roger sat sunning himself on the rocks. It had been an enjoyable vacation. Relaxation, tennis, drinks on the beach, good times. Now, with only a day left to go, he tried to make the best of it by getting away from the noise and crowds. He found a nice secluded spot, and turned to inner reflection and peace.

Then, without warning, the gods of the sea came and took him away in a giant rage of foam and spray.

Roger found peace, and the searches found the pieces.

the right hand side does not add anything to the image. I think the image could have been cropped for a better composition.
