Default Sitting, Waiting, Wishing

Hi all, I was going over some pics I took way back in the summer that have been lying around my computer for ages from a trip upto the Lake District and the surrounding coastline. We arrived at our destination a bit too early, so sat drinking some beers and laying around waiting for the sunset to kick in. It was blowing a gale and freezing but we had a laugh with it. Anyway here are a few:

If it weren't for the first in the sequence, one may think the third is a result of the second

I like the second, partial capture of the face is interesting.

Love that first photo! Simple but effective, with the path of the sun on the water leading to the resting photographer. Thanks for sharing these!

Great set... I like the last one... just how the light barely touches his face. Nice
