St. Pierre Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

North of Praslin there are a lot of beautufl little islands. One is called St. Pierre, a little rock in the blue sea with some palm trees on it. They told us that this is the most captured island of the world.

scanned from a negative of a one-way waterproofed camera !!!

Hallo Achim,
schöne Aufnahme dieser niedlichen kleinen Insel.
Gute Farben und auch sonst eine ziemlich gute Qualität für ein gescanntes Negativ einer Einweg-Kamera. Erinnert mich irgendwie an die berühmte Frage: Was würden sie auf eine einsame Insel mitnehmen?
Viele Grüsse aus dem Donautal,
Helmut

Hi Achim,
indeed a fantastic cliché of a tropical island. The only thing missing is the only survivor of a shipwreck.

Hi Achim,

this place is a paradise...I've never had the chance to visit it but the photos translate thousands words. Very good catch of the small island. I'll be happy to be lost on that :) great shot. Quality is really good for a one-way camera. Well done!
Regards,
Carlos

Hola Achim.
This is the island I'm looking for, a beautiful tropical paradise, the turquoise color of the sea and the cloudy sky produces a great color contrast. You did a very good work with a scanned negative of a waterproof camera. Bravo.
TFS.
Best regards.

Bonjour Achim,
un petit bout de terre qui semble très hospitalier.
J'aime beaucoup la couleur des eaux et le rendu fin du ciel.
Une île peut-être un peu trop centrée.
Regards.
Daniel.

Hi Achim,

The point view leads our eyes toward the island of Saint-Pierre, it is allowing us to see the the rock formations and the palm trees. A peaceful scenery, the sky is filtering the light which brings out the colors. Have a nice day.

Hi Achim
Lovely place, but if it is the most captured island, why I didn`t captured it yet?;) I like the capture, freshness on the image :).
Have a nice day.

Hallo Achim,
It's a dreamy view... It's the perfect image of the shipwrecked man we see in comics, but this time in photography. We don't see any sandy beach, but we can think that it is on the other side.
The quality is remarkable for a disposable camera. The definition is good and the colours are very well rendered.
Grüsse, José.
