vacancy for one Photo

Photographer’s Note

OK, I have to admit that all the posts were occupied when we arrived, but, true to form, one seagull had vacated his slot by the time I was ready to take the picture! Clearly a popular resting place, and I felt that it captured the laid-back, time-drifts-by tranquillity of this Caribbean island perfectly. The picture may seem a little dark, but that was how it was on the day - in fact almost every day would see a build-up of cloud in the morning, a light shower at lunchtime and then clearer skies in the afternoon.

Met and shared a little time with member Seneca77 and his bride-soon-to-be member Lilycat whilst on this lovely island, where we were celebrating our own 30 years of marriage as our reason for being there.

Looks perfect on my monitor:-) The colors are amazing. Yet, i would crop a little from the bottom and left - to stress the main subject:-)
And greetings to your anniversary:-))

On first sight I don't mind that it is a little dark.. the water looks strangely self-illuminated. The horizon line is lovely, and the difference in color between the sky and water is eye-catching. I agree with the previous comment that the bottom could stand to be cropped, but overall a nice, relaxing pic...I like the birds:)
