Lampshade

Beach umbrellas open across pale sand, photographed from directly above so that each canopy becomes a flat disc and the people around them small marks in between. The sand runs to the top of the frame; the water is out of shot entirely.

Shadows are what give the image depth — each umbrella throws an ellipse slightly offset from its canopy, so every circle in the frame is really two.
