Thank you, I love this photo myself. The sun was rising behind her and the light was bouncing off the water.
"Standing on the beach with a board in my hand, staring at the sea staring at the sand " is actually a song by a band called "the cure" en-titled "killing an arab". Which by today's standards is rather politically sensitive (no mater what side of the fence on stands on).
The lyrics of the original song are below, recorded in 1986.
AND OUT OF INTEREST THESE LYRICS ARE BY NO WAY WHAT SO EVER MY PERSONAL THOUGHTS.....
I TRULY BELIEVE THAT WE ALL HAVE A PLACE ON THIS STUNNING PLANET, CALLED EARTH, WE ALL JUST HAVE TO PRACTICE TOLERANCE ...
Band: Cure Song: Killing an Arab
Standing on the beach With a gun in my hand Staring at the sea Staring at the sand Staring down the barrel At the arab on the ground I can see his open mouth But I hear no sound
I'm alive I'm dead I'm the stranger Killing an arab
I can turn And walk away Or I can fire the gun Staring at the sky Staring at the sun Whichever I chose It amounts to the same Absolutely nothing
I'm alive I'm dead I'm the stranger Killing an arab
I feel the steel butt jump Smooth in my hand Staring at the sea Staring at the sand Staring at myself Reflected in the eyes Of the dead man on the beach The dead man on the beach
I'm alive I'm dead I'm the stranger Killing an arab

Band: Cure
Song: Killing an Arab
Standing on the beach
With a gun in my hand
Staring at the sea
Staring at the sand
Staring down the barrel
At the arab on the ground
I can see his open mouth
But I hear no sound
I'm alive
I'm dead
I'm the stranger
Killing an arab
I can turn
And walk away
Or I can fire the gun
Staring at the sky
Staring at the sun
Whichever I chose
It amounts to the same
Absolutely nothing
I'm alive
I'm dead
I'm the stranger
Killing an arab
I feel the steel butt jump
Smooth in my hand
Staring at the sea
Staring at the sand
Staring at myself
Reflected in the eyes
Of the dead man on the beach
The dead man on the beach
I'm alive
I'm dead
I'm the stranger
Killing an arab
Cheers
