- Here we observe some people who are all upset because it is raining and they may get their bathing suits wet. Fortunately, the only real tragedy unfolding in Ben Prins’ sandscape involves that lady who is wrestling with her umbrella, for just when the poor soul gets it under control, she is going to be walloped on the coiffure by the umbrella of the lifeguard. If she then inquires of the young man whether lifeguards are hired to kill people, it will be a puzzling question for him to answer. Regarding that cloud in the sky, perhaps it is thinking, Every cloud has a silver lining. By covering the sun, I am saving many people from severe sunburn. As a result of this kind act, they are sore at me. Human nature is a fascinating study.
