Photographers Note
Another shot I took in La Tortuga, specifically in Tortuguillo Sur, one of 4 islets forming the archipel of La Tortuga in the Venezuelan Caribbean.
Our group was the only one visiting this small islet when we went there. It was just amazing: the beauty, the peace, the isolation, the intense colors of the nature. I like the color contrast here between the kajaks and the marvellous turquoise water in the front.
Unfortunately, we could only stay for a while, because the sun was very sharp and there were no shadows anywhere. Be sure to bring a strong sunblock, a hat or cap and a T-shirt to protect yourself, especially if you have sensitive skin, but don't miss visiting this amazing place.
I sharpened a bit, increased gamma and exposure (to get rid of the haziness of the picture. I cropped a bit of teh bottom, because there were some towels there. I did not change colors. I wish I could have added a white frame.

Hi Yvonne,
I love the colours in your photo. The sea is so crystal clear and I think the layers of colours in it and the sky look superb. Thank you for sharing.
Cheers,
Debbie

Hi Yvonne
A very colourful and deeply saturated scene. The boats contrast well with the turquoise water and the sand. Good vertical format and nice framing.
