Nomad's Notes

I did learn some lessons from the first beach event we did 6 months before. This time I planned a little "talent show" where everyone could show off something they are good at. Plus I brought more things like hoola hoops and a twister game. I had hoped for more people but honestly I was surprised and thankful those that did show up were there. Earlier, when I had arrived in the morning to set up, it was cold, grey and windy. I could not imagine anyone showing up on a day like that. (60 F / 15 C) But miraculously they did! There must have been 25 or more people - and they actually took off their clothes! You can see by the way the fisherman and other people on the beach are bundled up, just how cold it was. It's amazing how well the nude human body deals with cool temperatures. I still had a very loose attitude about cameras and so many were snapping away. Collating all the photos together was a nightmare that went on for weeks. Since then things have evolved to the point where a limited number of approved photographers shoot.
