This one was years ago, the tree went diseased, and had to be cut down sadly, and it just got to big. But this is Leica M Monochrome and a 35mm 1.4 Lux: It was shot basically at night time.

I love watching the antics of the "non beach" people when they start playing by the water. They have a blast, but it seems the ocean always wins the game in the end. Ever spent an afternoon in wet sandy blue jeans? A horrible experience.
That would be me Steve.. I don't even take my shoe's off on the beach let alone go in the water.
The ocean and the forest are house's. Sharks live in one, bears live in the other..
I was a bit too uncomfortable taking pictures of people washing up in the Boardwalk shower when coming off the beach. I just don't want to get the "creep" label. So, I put on the Leica 21 mm Super-Elmar, and set it up for range focusing. I positioned myself to get the shadows instead of the people, and shot from waist high without looking, just guessing on the composition. I waited until there were no females, or children using the showers. I tried to time it to get interesting body shapes. Still, one guy gave me the stink eye trying to figure out if I was taking pictures. I shot 3 frames and left.
