Leonard Freed, American, 1929 – 2006. (2002). Man Sitting on Beach
This photograph called Man Sitting on Beach by Leonard Freed really drew my attention and stood out to me. The photo is just a simple picture of a man sitting on the beach enjoying his time. He has fresh sand on his back suggesting that he just sat up from laying down. The calmness of laying down at the beach enjoying the wind blow fresh ocean smells while basking in the sun is a moment that most everyone enjoys. Its the simple picture that captures one of the best summer time feelings. This photo is so much deeper when you step into the subjects shoes and think, feel, hear, and smell what he does. It stood out to me because I haven’t had the opportunity to step foot in his shoes in a while due to Covid and it is an all around moment I am looking forward to.
