Reader photo: Hesitation

There are two kinds of beach people: those who run straight into the water, exhilerated by the cold ocean on a hot day, and those who like to test the water before getting in. Olapic user grahamdavis7 took this photo of a young beachgoer at Huntington Beach who apparently falls into the second group.
