in reply to Bernd • • •Ein Selbstporträt, das von einer Person aufgenommen wurde, die in einem flachen Küstengewässer steht. Die Person hält die Kamera so nah vor sich, dass die meisten Details im Vordergrund sind, aber im Hintergrund sind viele andere Menschen im Wasser zu sehen. Die Person hat eine helle Haut und lächelt mit leicht geöffnetem Mund in die Kamera. Es sind keine Kleidung sichtbar. Im Hintergrund sieht man einen Strand, der mit weiteren Personen gefüllt ist, die im Wasser stehen, und eine schwindende Menschenmenge in der Ferne. Der Text im Bild lautet: "Annual skinny dip had become 'sea of cameras".
