Great, clear shot that just asks for you to jump into that hammock, it's so inviting and also lets you see what your missing by not being there. One half of the shot taken up by the palms offset by the blue of the sea and sky, lovely picture.

You can't beat a tropical island for relaxing and taking in the surrounding sights. Your image captures the essence of relaxing on a beach. The photo has nice balance. The photo has a warm color temperature and good color harmony. The lighting is well controlled to prevent sun glare off the sand. A very nice image indeed.

I think you got the lighting just about perfect in this post. That lighting provides great color and definition not only in the hammock but in the sand and water. Peaceful scenic shot and a pleasure to review.

I can be ready to catch a plane in 10 minutes...
Love the colors in this- not all green, but lots of contrast and interest. Nice detail on the hammock, and lots of footprints in the sand and along the water's edge. Definitely a shot of paradise!

Beautiful, great stretch of deserted beach, a bit of water to the left and your eye goes to the hammock. Great focus, dof and framing. I'm there, on the hammock and never leaving. Well done

A picture worthy of a six! A perfect pictureof your perfect hideaway in Paradise. The desreted silver sanda streching as far as the horizon with just a glimpse of still blue sea. The Hammock sung between two plam trees & a Palm Frond to keep off the Miday sun! Superb camera techniques throughou witg sharp focus.

Perfect color and balance. The clarity brings out the texture of the fronds and the footsteps in the sand - I can almost feel the soft Caribbean breeze and smell the salt air. And the hammock, oh the hammock, I love it! Great job!

many thanks for your kind comments and high rating; but very far away from the Caribbean: it is in the Maldives..........South of India

I guess I was really off on the location - but not on the critique

If I had taken this photograph I also would have taken up residence. Probably one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. The colors, texture of the sand, detail, and composition are all great.
