This international (two are from Australia) group of young people are walking most of the way from Santa Monica pier to Washington D.C.

       I rarely take group snaps. In fact I rarely photograph people. I couldn't choose the time of day or the weather. Tip, or after the fact thoughts: when shooting in bright sunlight either position he group so that they are back-lit or if they looking into the sun ask them to close their eyes and open them wide when ready to release the shutter . . . to get an eyes wide open surprised look ;-)
