Well I didn't mark your note useful because it a) didn't say anything about the photography itself, and b) didn't mention anything about those objects in the foreground!

Anyway, that aside; it's a picturesque scene and the exposure is perfectly done. It doesn't have the usual super-crisp sharpness and actually I like that, it somehow makes it more real.

I'm not a fan of the lettering at all, I think you could've used the picture title alone; but that's a personal thing I guess.

Hi Bill,
Lovely scene but lacks some sharpness I feel. With the Canadian winter approaching and the weather turning bit by bit colder, this is a really welcome sight. I think the text on the picture is a distraction. Great colours.

HI Bill
Great composition and fantastic colours.
Perhaps its my screen or my eyes are tired but I find the the clouds and the background look somewhat blurred.

I can see why this would stay with you forever, Bill. It is indeed very inviting looking the way you have presented it. Your POV is superb to invite us into the water. (what would the round things be?) What a peaceful feeling to this with great natural colour. Well done.
Warm Regards

Hi Bill,
Beautiful postcard perfect photo. Speaking of which, I think many of your photos can be turned into postcards. The quality you emphasise in your work would definitely make it possible.

Well Bill, so nice of you to send such a lovely postcard of this divers paradise.

I always start to relax when I see a sea framed by pamtrees - for me this looks like a holiday.

There are many photographers on the site who make no mention at all about photography in their notes, as for the lettering it is a postcard. The only nit pick I do have Bill is the fact that you appear to have levelled your horizon after you tilted the image. Good postcard colour and sharpness,

Hie Bill,

How are you there. Long time no see. So this is the famous Mabul Island I've heard from the news lately. Environmental issues for Mabul island development. But this island is really beautiful.
Btw, I have just got myself a nikon D60..my sony DSC H1 has broke down. lol

Hi Bill,
Long time no see my dear friend. It has been a while.

Always love going places with the sun behind on my left. There's something "quiet and gentle" about the scene in front with that kind of setting.

My coding work is taking over my life nowadays Bill. Only tomorrow I get to take Ramdan, Fadzil and Lano for a phototrek at a waterfall in Kionsom.

As for the natural resources of our country Bill, as long as it's standing, floating, growing or living, there are those related to the government would find that, so difficult to let it be. The only time when they don't do anything to it, is when it is dying. Or dead.
