Resting WIP

Taking another look at this in the daylight.  I wanted to take a photo so I have a print to mark-up.  So far there are some very nice passages and some that need work.  The sand is only the foundation.  Water and reflections and foam are coming.  I will add a flock of pelicans in the sunlight area past the breakers.  The lower left and bottom right still need work.  I think I need to add something in the open space on the left for interest and transition between the beach and the waves
