Hi Tony,
A lovely place, perfect for enjoying a warm summer day. The compo is masterful, with the inviting blue and emerald water of the bay balanced by the "Christmas tree" on the right, with its red blossom and a hat made by the lonely cloud. The fence and the curve of the beach make a nice visual path.
Regards, José.

Hello Tony,
Mmm, a very pleasing coastal scene.
I like how you have used the fence, on a diagonal line, to act as a leading line and to divide the lush greens from the azure blues.
The r/h bush, with its tiny red details, balances the bushes on the left, very well.
Have a good day,
Bev :-)
