Fire Fighters wear that kind of reflective dress...
You are out there. You and your camera. You can shoot or not shoot as you please. Discover the world, Your world. Show it to us. Or we might never see it.

Frank, I think the somewhat reflective look of the clothing may be a result of increasing the brightness of a backlit subject.

First thing that came to my mind when I saw it:  like a good memory from the ocean shore. I like it a lot.
