Serene on Serena Beach, a photo from Isla de la Juventud, West

Photographer's Note

One of the best beaches in Cuba...on Cayo Largo island. The water is really this color and crystal clear. Best of all, hardly any tourists...YET!

Nice picture of this beach.

I like the inmage, Michael. Lovely colours and good composition. Just a pity it is not sharper, and your horizon needs to be levelled -- see my workshop version. But you have a good eye and this shot really catches one's attention!

I like beaches. The perspective of your photo is great. Good global vision and DOF. A little noisy though. Try NeatImage.

Mike, this beach is fantastic... I didn't know there was such a kind in Cuba. I'm pleased and surprised. Most of all, the composition is perfect. Thumbs-Up !!!

I believe you that this is one of the best beaches in Cuba! Beautiful water colors! I think it needs a little rotation.

What a serene beach, so pure and untouched. Very good composition with the placement of the tree branch on the left, and nice low angle.
