Anticipation, Mission Beach, San Diego, California, 2010

Bearing their boards, these women have just about reached the water – I could feel their anticipation as they felt the energy of the waves moving toward them. I combined the rhythms of the horizontal furrows in the sand with the horizontal waves and one of the boards that is held in a horizontal position over one of the surfer’s heads. The verticality of the arms, legs, and bodies provide a rhythmic counter point.

Ah, another pun from the Yellow Rose of Texas. As for that "baring of the bods," such an exercise would be illegal on this beach. As you can see, both women wear straps upon their backs here, so all is still well in legal land.
