I’m taking advantage of the cooler temperatures to get out for a walk as often as I can.   I usually take my camera in the hopes of grabbing a shot or two along the way.  This evening the beach was unusually empty – odd for a holiday weekend.  These 3 girls were busy at the shoreline playing in the sand.  The ripples from the boats on the lake made a nice pattern on the water and the sun was touching the grass to add a golden glow.  I could picture an artist sitting on the beach painting this scene, so I decided to process the image with a watercolor effect.
