At first I thought I was looking at pull strings, but as I looked closer it became quite amazing to see all those little figures wonderfully distributed to making this image not only intriguing but aesthetically pleasing.

Definitely, the second one. I didn't think anything of the imbedded image, but once I had expanded the photo I smiled a lot. Nice in all respects.

Yes, I think of his beach photos too. I love the way he used color film. Man, what a knack...

I think it was catching and you caught it. I know that shot is digital but it sure looks like his color stuff.
