Hi Gerrit. So, you had left Europe in search of the sun and fun. Great view of all that makes a tropical resort so appealing- sun, sea and sun. A good thing here is the lack of crowds. Nice idea to include some shade and vegetation. Regards. Klaudio.

Hello Gerrit,
A nice composition of this tropical paradise, definitely something to dream about at this time of year. I like the view along the beach framed by the foreground trees and all under a lovely blue sky. Very good colours and clarity.

Hi Gerrit!

Ah, you have made me very jealous with this fantastic photo! What a beautiful exotic landscape, excellent "natural" framing, great composition and perspective. The light managment is great, too, the colours are brilliant! Congratulations!

Hey Gerrit,

Beautifully done. A gorgeous composition, full of lush plants in the foreground, and with a nice depth of view, for the background. Great colors, clarity and lighting. In brings forth a lot of ambient. Sharpness is also very nice.

Enjoy.

Gerrit,
Your composition is fine here using the trees to frame the beach scene. The people on the beach creates a nice sense of scale as well as adding life to the shot. The lighting and colors are great with excellent sharpness and DOF. Man would I like to be there right now!

Bonjour Gerrit,
une vue paradisiaque qui a beaucoup de points communs avec les plages de République Dominicaine que j'ai fréquentées il y a quelques années.
La beauté des Caraïbes.
Superbes couleurs intenses et un ciel magnifique.
Bets regards.

Hi Gerrit,
Lovely tropical scene with the vivid blue sky and wonderful clouds contrasting so nicely with the turquoise sea and lovely light sandy beach. The lush green of the foreground makes a very effective lead in to the beautial beach.

Dag Gerrit,

Deze samenstelling is zonder meer mooi, het strand prachtig tussen de bomen en nog strand bezoekers ook, dat is een goede foto.
We genieten van de schitterende zomer kleuren midden in de winter.
Zeer goed gedaan Gerrit. Bedankt!

Prettige dag,
John.

I like how you have included the trees in the foreground making us feel we are peeping through them to the bay beyond. I like the little group of people we seem to be watching. Good work

Hi Gerrit - nice view of this beach, effective from the side, with nice sky... probably this is how Negril looked like before the development... TFS, Daniel

Hi Gerrit,
with the trees in the foreground and the good light you achieved a very appealing one here which is added by some distant life. The light and shadow on the leaves of the tree at the right is my preferred thing.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Gerrit,
you're showing us one post after the other of Jamaica of places that seems to be quite exotic and isolated. It seems to me that you took time to explore the island in a very adventure packed modus. This image conveys the impression that you walked through a lot of jungle to reach finally this place with openning to the beach.

Hi Gerrit,
I like this framing through the trees, it strengthens the impression of a virgin beach, beautiful shooting conditions with nice clouds populating the sky and as a result a very pleasant photo.
Have a nice day JY

Een mooie gezicht op het strand en langs de kustlijn met heel prettige, warme tinten. Het licht maakt het geheel ook extra aangenaam om naar te kijken. Uitstekende framing ook door de bomen, prima werk!

Hola Gerrit,
fantastic colors and definition of image in an excellent composition. The POV is different and attractive, through the vegetation you teach to us the calm scene, seems that we are spying. Impressive chromatic force of the sky and clouds!!

Un saludo, best regards, Jordi

Hi Gerrit,
A beautiful landscape of this beach solitary and surrounded with beautiful vegetation, in a good setting. I like the balance between the trees in FG and the great depth of the image.
Great light and magnificent colors, you have done a good work in this composition, as usual.
Best regards, my friend,

Hi Gerrit,

The owner of this bath towel that we can see in the foreground is in the sea I suppose!!! Pretty paradisiac point of view here, I like much the bright colors of the composition. Pretty memory of holidays, thank you for sharing Gerrit.

With all my friendships and a very good evening,

Hi Gerrit,
I am jealous to see that a Trekearther was in Jamaica.
I would also love to be sunbathing over those tropical sands, and right now, if possible...
