On a rainy day walking back to my car I spot a lone young woman cleaning up in the ice cream stand on the beach. It’s raining heavily, theres no-one at the beach and yet shes there and the stall is open. I asked for a photo for World Photo Day as I felt it summed up the idea perfectly. People in the real world. It was a totally random meeting, but good timing.
The creator of World Photo Day 2005 said this about my shot;
Drew Rossman: “How beautiful are both she and your photo. You have captured the essense of WPD2005 my friend.”

Cracking picture Pete (and a lovely looking girl too!!). You’re quite clearly a talented photographer and an inspiration to a wannabe just like myself!!
It’s a lovely photo, a great way to remember my days working on the beach. Nice to have met you Pete 🙂
Very lovely girl.
The picture is fantastic. You saw something in her that I have been seeing for years now. I always thought she would look good in black and white. Thank you for transending the oceans and giving me a little piece of a friend of mine who lives so far away.
