Beer Can Island

Why on God's green Earth they call this Beer Can Island I'll never know. It's not even an island, just the northern tip of Longboat Key. Nonetheless here I am  sneaking a break in my day to capture a few shots of the beach at midday.  I'm more of a sunset guy but I thought I'd expand my horizons a little and see what I could do during the day. Easier said than done, you need a polarizer,  exposure compensation and blah-de-blah-blah-blah. I was just happy to get out of the office for a few minutes over lunch.
