Large, brown, imposing boulders stand erect in contrast to the flat beach on which are located fishing rafts. These connect to the ocean, as if embracing the tide or putting up a brave resistance, such is the fate of humans and nature. In the distance the sea is deep blue. As it moves toward the shore it becomes silvery white spray. The water is soft, but still possesses unfathomable power.
