Tomorrow we've yet to see
Still, there be yet hope

Lifeguard to the Damned
+This lifeguard stand was right down from us on the shoreline last night when my wife and I went to the beach to photograph the full pink moon. I figured a little enhancement could make it really nice as a backdrop. This pic makes me want to write a poem about a heartbroken and forlorn lifeguard suffering from guilt after not managing to save someone. So melancholy and lonely.
