Beach Watcher

Famous South Beach between 4th and 7th where the beautiful people go.  I walk beaches and see photos everywhere, but a man with a camera on a beach is akin to a man with a hand grenade.  

I never shoot with a telephoto.  These were all taken with a 24mm lens.  I don't like shooting from far away.  A 24mm on a beach full of strangers is crazy.

I liked these images, though.  There is a familiar anonymity that most people associate with beach going.  I will try to screw up my courage a little better and begin approaching people, telling them that I want to photograph them, that I am doing a series, etc.   

That is what I keep telling myself I will do.
