Perfect shot. Good use of wide angle, lovely composition and great exposure - contact their tourist board and flog this beauty for all it's worth. Really very good - be proud of this one, David.

You poor sod. This looks so miserable.

Nice crisp details and beautiful saturation, though it almost looks like rain in those clouds behind the coconut trees ...

Hello David.
Trying to make a new business as holiday seller ?
If so, this is a good start for it.
Wonderful Holiday picture.!
No shower in the villas required, just walking into the sea, haha
Congrats for this result.

Yup, looks like a perfect place to be. I could plant myself on that beach for days and be quite content. Interesting leaning palm tree - it's definitely the focal point - the tree and it's shadow. Fantastic shot David.

Hi David

Looks wonderful. I particularly like the vacant hammock, hanging from the diagonal coconut tree. Good sharpness & saturation. Tfs!

Terrific.

Hi David,

You are making us all jealous of your Zanzibar vacation - look at those folks hiding from the sun under those cabanas! Disgusting. Oh well, it's starting to give a hint of spring here in Missouri.

This is a beautiful representation of your stress. I think I speak for everyone else when I recommend you take two mojitos and try again later, maybe you can achieve a more laid back state.

I don't see any horizon problems or lens distortion, this photo looks as perfect as anyone could get it. Great job, all kidding aside.

Enjoy!
