Hi Andrew
Excellent shot! Beautiful seascape. How did you take such picture? Were you in an airplane or something?
The gradual colours in the sea is stunning. The mountain in the background is as sharp as the details in the foreground. I especially like the boat you included in this picture. It does give a sense of scale of this massive area.
Two thumbs up!

Hi Andrew! excellent choice!A immense view and one chromatic improbable graded blue that impresses! I like however more the background and the colour of sky and the white clouds also the opposition with the dark mountain!

Hi Andrew!
I agree with you, it is a true paradise! Wonderful! It's breathtaking! Your aerial pictures from Bora Bora are among the most beautiful I've ever seen...The wide angle gives such an impressive result! And I love the colors here...I wish I had been there once!

Wow, not much else I can say besides how beautiful it is, and it's great that you captured so much of the water, great shot.

All I have to say is...damn you for being able to visit this beautiful place. Bora Bora has been on my top list since I was probably 15 years old. And photos like this remind me how badly I need to visit here.
I like the scale, is this taken from a plane?
Regards,
David

Wow.. what a beautiful place...
I think the boats on the left corner is very interesting but i suggest if you crop out half of the bottom side, this picture will be a nice landscape of the Bora bora. Nevertheless this composition is very well both colours and clarity are the best, a nice place for visit. Thanks Andrew for share it

Hello Andrew,
From friends in the cruise business, I've long heard that the most beautiful natural place on earth is Bora Bora, and perhaps just behind Bora Bora is Morea. The turquoise colors of the South Sea Islands must be unique. Very good catch, but where were you located to take the photograph?
Warm regards,
Bulent

Bora-Bora, la perle parmi les perles! L'ambiance somptueuse ressort merveilleusement bien de cette image.
