The mysteries of life

I wasn’t really feeling the photography love today but I had a couple of lovely walks, the 2nd of which was in Shoebury where this shot was taken. For me it raises questions… why is this man taking his dog for a walk wearing a swimming hat and a buoyancy aid? If he’s going for a swim where is his towel, or is he walking home cold and soaking wet? Is he going to leave the dog looking after his clothes and his phone while he swims? Or does he just have a very strange fashion sense? This will probably keep me awake tonight ;)
