The man walking the other way ignored us completely, actually looking away
as he passed us.
I was going to share the obvious beauty of our surroundings with him but by his rejection
felt defeated.
Anyway we continued along the shoreline, passing the wreckage of a drowned dingy,
until we met the tide at the far corner of the bay.
When we turned for home the low sunlight that had cast the beach in such delightful
relief, blinded us with its intensity.
Little wonder that the man had ignored us.
