Photographer’s Note
Samui's phallic rocks are as popular with Thai visitors as foreigners. Meaning Grandfather Rock and Grandmother Rock respectively, in local legend the rocks represent two doomed lovers who drowned themselves in the sea here, because their families disapproved of their relationship.

Hello Assi,
I think of all the places I've been lucky enough to visit, Samui, stole my heart, it is so beautiful.
I like your shot very much, it is simple yet elegantly photographed, your composition is thoughtful and the colour rendition so natural.
A very good capture.
Regards
Peter

Interesting and beautiful place, so different from the Thailand beaches of white sand which are often shown.
More like a northern sea view.
