[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A rocky bay on Ko Samui in the tropical Gulf of Thailand. I visited this beach again last year & the hillside adjoining this beach, now has a collection of low rise chalets.

The rocks are granite boulders, which occur naturally throughout the island. Sail Rock offshore (also granite), is a premier dive spot.

Beautiful scenery Chris, all these beaches and so empty - but not for long I guess - Developers are probably checking out your shots and following to the beaches. Considering it is -20 degrees outside, belive me this is a shot that puts warmth in the body. Sam

Hi Chris,
A very beautiful picture of beach with clean water, nice rocks of foreground and the blue sky. I also like the perspective of the curved beach.

particularly love the 'shadows' of the boulders in the water, wow, mmmmmmmm, (*_*)

i love this type of landscape photos chris :)
beautiful view

A lovely picturesque landscape photo. Nice bright and rich colours. It would be a nice idea to re-visit these places again and wonder how much of this is preserved till date. Maybe a huge ask..but still makes me wonder though..TFS

Just perfect, wonderful setting and you've captured it well, I like the rocky beach and I'm sure it's a great dive spot.

It is cold and blustery here today and then you post this! Pity about the built-up of hotels in these beaches. It is the same in Sri Lanka. Places that were pristine 10 years ago is now wall to wall hotels.

I went there, so pretty, and full of sea shells on the beach! Warm silky water, so nice!

The colours are nicely saturated. I like the composition with the curve in the beach. Nice work.

Obrigado,

The rocks are really nice and add a lot to the overall composition. I like the nice curve of the sandy beach and the background of green hills. A perfect place to relax and enjoy the surroundings. You have made a good composition Chris, with gorgeous colours. TFS.
