daydreaming, a photo from Virgin Islands, Other

Photographer's Note

Gratuitous 'Bain De Soleil' shot =)
This was taken at Trunk Bay in St. John USVI. One of the most beautiful beaches we've ever been to.
Picture tweaked a little, color and saturation-wise. Enjoy! --/c

The paradise in one photo. The blue tones contrast with brown of girl skin. Tipic, but I like it very much. Well, that I really want is to be there !!!

Classic travel magazine shot and that is not intended to be derogatory. The exposure is absolutely spot on and the graduation in the blue from foreground to sky in incredible. It would be a treble point smiley but for the sloping horizon (sorry but one of my pet hates). As it is I can only give the maximum 2 :-)

Beautiful shot! I find the only distraction to be the boat in the far backround. I would probably try and take it out if possible. Still it is a great shot.

I like this photo a lot Craig. It belongs on a tourist brochure. I did a workshop to concentrate more on the girl and the remoteness of the scene by cropping from just below the horizon. I found the horizon a little distracting. I also adjusted the levels and added a frame. I hope you like it. Well done.

I am daydreaming of Trunk Bay too, especially after viewing this photo. The colors are beautiful and well captured.

I hope you had a chance to try out that underwater snorkeling trail.

Wonderful photo which is used for an advertisement as it is. Really great shot! I'm adding this into my "Tropical Islands" theme. I like your comfortable photo!

Hi Craig. I like very much your picture. Very nice landscape and very good composition. Maybe a lower point of view can obtain a view more similar of the girl can see. But the photo is very good too. Very good job.
