[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is a beach in the island of Vieques -- located just off the eastern cost of the larger island of Puerto Rico in the Caribbean Sea.

Vieques is considered the southern axis of the infamous Bermuda Triangle. Vieques is known as "La Isla Nena" (little girl island) and "Isabel Segunda" (Isabel II) and was founded in 1843 by Francisco Saínz. Isabel Segunda port, holds the distinction of being the last fort built by the Spaniards in the New World

The island is 21 miles (34 km) long and 3 miles (5 km) wide, and it is 52 square miles (135 square km) in area. It was annexed to Puerto Rico in 1854. Vieques derives its name from the Taino Indian word for small island ("bieques").

Nice composition and colors although the image is quite noisy. I love the foreground light on the sand, rocks and water. The light spill on the left is a bit distracting but the overall effect of the image is good.

Excellent capture of a great looking beach. Dynamics come from the waves and the runner. Well done.

I think this is a pretty good shot...You have beautiful sand and the waves plays some movement to make the mood alive.

Hi JC,
This is a superb shot presenting both the rain and the clouds and coming from the background the warm sun. This creates a very nice composition with superb colors in the foreground and a raining background with nice clouds shapes. Well done.
