Fun Under the Sun Photo

Photographer’s Note

SOUTH SEA ISLAND, FIJI. Everything That's Fun Under the Sun

Fiji is a country and an archipelago in the southern Pacific Ocean, consisting of about 330 islands and 510 islets and atolls of volcanic origin, spread in an area of 3 million km². Only about 100 islands are inhabited by the 832,000 residents. It is a tropical paradise with beautiful beaches. Its clear waters and reefs are ideal for diving and fishing.

The little island on the left is South Sea Island in the Mamanuca group of Fiji islands. It is located due west of Nadi international airport, only 25 minutes from the port at Denarau. When we stopped by this island to drop people off I had never heard anything about this tiny island before and all I can find on the internet is about day-trips out to the island. So I guess it isn’t for sleeping over. It was very small, and didn’t have too many buildings on it.

What a nice sober pano good composed land in the midts of the blue sea and a soft cloudy sky towards the horizont, pleasant to see those huts between the greens, a beautifull island.

I like the way you used a long horizontal in this shot. The long stretch of beach, with the low trees and buildings, and the low clouds on the horizon makes for a wonderful expression of the nature of this place. Very creative and interesting, as well as beatiful. Bravo!

Great framing & colours in this one, I like the way the main subject is off to the left but there's still the island in the distance catching my eye.
