Photographer’s Note
This is a typical tourist image of Mallorca. There can't be many beaches in Mallorca (or Spain) that don't have pedalos on them.
I'm sure this photo will remind many people of a fun time they had pedalling one of these around for an hour.
I haven't a clue who the guy is, I just needed some human interest in the foreground.

A lovely beach shot surrounded by mountains. The sweep of the shoreline leads our eye through. I'm not sure what Mark is talking about panorama as there doesn't seem to be anyhting to cut out.

Hey Paul, looks like any Spanish beach with all the pedalos! With the exception of the mountains. i like the idea of this shot, but I think it would have been better in a more panoramic format including the left of the blue pedalos would fit.
Good that you included the man, the beach looks pretty deserted really, was it taken rather early?

In response to Kaths comment, I dont think anything should be cut out, its more a case of adding more in! Like the rest of the beach on the left, the fact that the blue pedalo is cut off distracts me, and if Paul was to have taken another shot of what was to his right he coudl have sitiched them and hey presto, panorama!
