Spent last Sunday at Kinshaldy beach in Fife, weather was kind of odd though as we had hot sunshine which was evaporating some pooled water on the beach, made quite an eerie scene with people apearing from and disappearing into the mist!

Now those I do like! It reminded me of a childhood memory when I saw the same thing at a beach that's just around the corner from my house.
Certainly has that ethereal feeling. While they are all excellent, I love the last one when you zoomed in on that couple and their dog. It's where they are two dark figure set against a pale near-white background that gives it a high contrast look about it.

The last one is superb. Though, it would be nice to see it with more saturation and a slight contrast increase?
EDIT: As you have your edit box ticked I thought I would have a stab at it to show you what I mean. I also cloned out the other people in the distance to try and give the feeling of isolation.

Cheers Ian, glad you like them :)
King - no problems with the edit in fact I think it really helps the image. You can probably tell the original image was very grey due to the mist and following a bump to the contrast and saturation I ended up with the above image however looking at your edit I really should have given it a greater bump than I did!
Excellant series, I like the lost one aswell.
