[Brian Moore]

That's Catalina Island on the horizon, and the reading woman blocks the view of a well-known geological feature of the island, the isthmus.

That must be a hot read!

What a fantastic title and what a fantastic shot to go with it! Oil drums, lifeguard hut (/ lander module), firming fireball - it has it all. But why would you stand on the beach and read?

Thanks, Pete. Perhaps she is a religious zealot reading the Bible? Or maybe it is 50 Shades of Gray she is reading?

Nice one Brian and I like the glow on the sand that surrounds her lower half, just sets it off a treat.
