hi Bill,
ah, the sky here! love that deep blue, it's always been a colour of holidays for me :) I like a lot how you have let it dominate the scene, I find it creates a nice relaxed mood. captivating textures on the sand in the foreground, and I like a lot how the dark triangle of the palm trees seem to be pointing towards the see and the sky. very well seen and presented.

with best regards,
Kristine

Pleasant view, but without any special thing to catch my eye. Also there is something wrong with the quality of the picture, I think.

Hi Bill,

Superb image.
The sea, and the shores, is in musical with the clouds and the palm lines..
Beautifull image.
Well done.

Bonjour Bill
Beau cliché de cette plage déserte bien cadrée qui sent bon l'exotisme avec une végétation que je ne vois pas dans ma région.
Merci pour le partage et bonne soirée.

Hi Bill.
An amazing sunny landscape.
The palms on the right seem a little bit too dark, but is a question of taste. The sky is gorgeus. Well done.
Best regards.
Bobo.

Bill,
This is a fine capture of this great beach. It seems so isolated and peaceful. The lighting and colors are great with excellent sharpness and detail. The sky is great and it is what draws the eye to this photo.

Hi Bill,
Wonderful brilliant blue sky seen above this deserted tropical beach. Great depth is acheived by the distant view of the mountains. Lovely texture to the sandy beach that contrast so nicely with the tropical palms and blue sky. This must be a hot day to keep the people away.

Hi Bill,
Excellent exposure control particularly on the sand ... I see too many images with the sand overexposed but not the sky on a beach scene like this. Regards. Latiff.

Hi Bill,

What a beach! Beautiful, wide and quite empty. Is it so because it is so hot? Fantastic holiday site. Maybe a bit far to the sea :))Exotic place - palm, sea, beach and mountains. fabulous.

hello bill

a true vacation pic, my friend. for us 'auslanders' that is :) the sky is gorgeous and so is the perspective by the palm trees. is this low tide? i'm just wondering what this setting would look like in high tide, with the water close to the tree line and evening sun.

warm regards,
kristaps

hej Bill
I bet it's gonna take a long time before we se package tours here, fortunately there still relatively unspoiled beaches in remote areas of S-E Asia.
About imagage, graet framing fantastic sky and I like the redish tone of the sand.

Hi Bill!

Someone can tell from the density of the colours and the great contrast that this photo was taken at high noon as you say. Beautiful, saturated colours, excellent framing and composition, amazing exotic place! Very impressive overall definition! Congratulations!
