Bora Bora Parasailing Photo

Photographer’s Note

I took this picture while parasailing over
one of the most beautiful places in the world -
Bora Bora lagoon. It's a breathtaking experience.
I had some hesitations - to take my expensive
camera with me and possibly ruin it in the turquoise
water? Who cares!

What an adventure ... high up over this most beautiful sea. I bet it was quite an experience. Beautiful the different blues. I am glad the camera is still alive ...

I didn't understand what the rope was at first. Once I got it my mouth dropped in a smile..

Hi Andrew,
2 points go just for daring to take the camera with you!
Any additional ones are well deserved for the beauty you've captured
A favorite!

Hi Andrew,
there is not much I can say about this. I prefer to cry and to shout: "I wish I was there!!!!"
Thank you for sharing this mental torture!

Best Regards
Andreas

Hi Andrew,
I see you know how to enjoy!!! Wow!! this is a splendid view from up here with the slight layer of deep blue above the turquoise lagoon, the clouds in the background...
Regarding the photo itself I think you could have enhanced it just by rectifying the horizon and adding a white frame :)
Thanks for sharing anyway!
Cheers,
Pris.

A great shot ! The boat looks so far away !
The rope going to it gives a nice sensation. The rest is a paradise !
