Description

This picture captures the image of a nearly frozen seashore. The sky is dark and cloudy, and the shore appears to be very misty. There is a strong contrast between light and dark as the abnormally shaped rocks pop out against the frosted sea in a way that unavoidably draws your eyes to them.
There are many footprints on this shoreline. They are accentuated by the fact that the sand has a light dusting of snow right up to the edge of where the tide runs out.
The water is perfectly still in a way that is both eery and peaceful at the same time. Even though though the many footprints on the shoreline suggest that many people have looked out upon the water this morning, the entire ocean remains untouched, barren, and cold.

Good details. “Eerie,” not “eery.” 5/5.
