[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
One of the larger island off Semporna, Mabul Island. On one side of the island are two luxury resorts built well away from the sandy shore linked by wooden walkways. On the other are the water villages where the local dwells in utilitarian stilt houses which I will try to show them in my next posting.

In this shot, I chose to stand a few paces back to include the wooden railing as the immediate foreground.

Thanks for viewing and for your valuable critiques

Cheers
Alfred

Hello Alfred. I like the vivid color of Nikon and you have done well here with CPL. When I use this lens I just tweak with the image quality setting because I don't own 67mm CPL. You have included the veranda very well with the shadow capturing this pristine view. Perfect sharpness of the subject with white sand and swaying palms looks heavenly with clear water against the blue sky. Well done and best regards. Jusni

hi Alfred

Well composed shot with CPL effect. Diagonal of handrail, boats add to it. Nice bright sky and scenic view with white sandy beach giving a great contrast to balance the colors. Great shot.

Hello Alfred,
I still don't know how this works, Such a beautiful scene, beautiful colours, sharp & interesting image, 129 hits and not 1 critique. I don't understand.
Regards
Santo
PS If you have some idea please tell me.
