Yeah, I confess: I am one of the millions of people that run to Brighton as soon as a ray of light comes out in the sky. What can I do, I grew up by the seaside, I just can not live without it.

I was strolling along beach when I spotted these kids having loads of fun jumping in the water from that lower part of the wall. I took a few shots and was actually aiming to get the happiness of the kids playing with water, you know, the effect of sunlight on water splashes.

Then they spotted me taking photos, and must have thought I was from some magazine or something, because one of them decided to show off his skills. He climbed to the upper part of the wall, by passers’ by viewpoint, and jumped to the water from there. I took some three shots with him flying and decided it was best to go away – it was freaking high and I was afraid one of the kids would get hurt or something. But it I got my shot. This beautiful picture of an angel shape flying from the light.
