It is wonderfully evocative, and a wonderful use of black and white to simplify the image to essential basics. The dramatic sky accentuates his aloneness, amplifying the empty beach around him, and the expanse of ocean before him. The photograph stimulates my imagination to think of many possible stories; it's very powerful and open-ended. Wonderful! Thanks for making and sharing such a wonderful image!
