Photographer's Note
Taken from Koh Phi Phi Don looking out to Koh Phi Phi Leh (where the beach was filmed). Some of the clearest waters I have seen. Hope this picture shows the beauty of the island as I saw it.

Hi Tom.
You've done a very good job at capturing the beauty of this island. Like the composition in which you've separated the 3 elements in the shot and the space you given to each (sand sea and sky). The rope running from the corner is a great lead-in line. Just need to watch the horizon. Lovely shot. Well done.
Best regards
Robin

Excellent compo. Good choice to go vertical. Like also the line that guides the eye. Alfred

Hello Tom,
Excellent idea this rope in the middle of the picture. It's the detail which makes the picture very different from typical blue/sea/sky postcards !
Colors are great too, I suppose you used a polarizer.
The vertical frame is well chosen but I would have taken care to have a horizontal horizon line. You should try 1 or 2 degrees left rotation and then it would be perfect.

Nice shot with beautiful colours. I like the way the rope leads the eyes towards the boat. It seems the far away objects are lacking a little bit in clarity. Anyways, great work.
