Hallo Achim!
Das ist ja noch schöner als auf Rügen! ;-)
Unglaublich, was die Natur alles hervorbringt. Ein wirklich eindrucksvolles Foto - und gut, dass das Menschlein die Größenverhältnisse klar macht. Die bestimmt schwierigen Lichtverhältnisse hast Du toll gemeistert!
Grüße aus dem brütendheißen Südwestfalen!

Cormac (26423) 2007-05-21 20:45

This does indeed seem like a paradise. Who can resist that water, with the light blue colour that is so inviting. I like the dramatic and interesting rock formations on the beach, which add a lot to the scene, as does the person there. Beautiful is the only word for this!

Hallo Achim,
schon etwas irreal mit den Steinen und dem Wasser. Sieht gut aber eigenartig aus. Die Farben und die Leuchtwirkung sind ausgezeichnet. Ich finde es schade, dass die Palmen links etwas abgeschnitten sind.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

vincz (19031) 2007-05-22 3:29

Great view from paradise. I went there a long time ago, i was indeed fabulous. Very interesting of the water.

danyy (62985) 2007-05-22 10:59

Bonjour Achim,
un endroit vraiment paradisiaque et ta photo le rend bien. On voit que ces rochers ont été lentement érodés par les aspect très arrondi.
Des eux dont la couleur enchante et un ciel partagé entre nuage et bleu.
Une toute belle invitation au rêve.

Best regards.
Daniel.

pierrefonds (23528) 2007-05-23 7:22

Hi Achim.
These pure white beaches with their unique granitic boulder rock surroundings are a dream for photographers. It looks indeed as a paradise on Earth and you picture is a fantastic way to share it with us.
Thanks for sharing!

Hello Achim
The rock formations are truly unique in this paradisic locale. The FG rocks looks like the back of a seal. Very nice

Hi Achim.

You're totally true: La Digue island is certainly on the nicest place in the world with her famous rocks, the white sand and the cocofesse coconuts.

Colors are really eye candy on your picture.

Regards.

jirivrobel (530) 2007-06-08 5:09

Yes, it really looks like paradise. Unbelievable scenery.

joeydrops (2645) 2007-07-02 5:39

Hi Achim,
Beautiful shot of beautiful La Digue! The landscape is truly superb. I would just love to jump into the photo and swim in that gorgeous, clear water. Those rock formations are unique and truly amazing. They complement the palm trees so well. I love the pastel colours in the sky and water, and the inclusion of the person to add scale. Well composed and captured with excellent depth and POV. Nice work!
