A beautiful scene. I like the way the islands overlap along the horizon. Colors are great but I think that rock in the foreground is too prominent and and contrasts with the grace of the rest of the scene.

a very nice still shot from the cruise boat.
sounds like a very nice day trip as 74 islands is a lot to view if staying a few days. very nice blue water as the DOF gives us a picture of some of the bigger islands. thank you for sharing. always,
ron

Thanks for your encouraging feedback ☺ we only went to one island but you can do longer trips on yachts which would be awesome. A lot are nature reserves or privately owned with no public access.

hi Zilyram,
your welcome as I love the blue water but your story it great and sounds like a wonderful place to visit.
sorry to hear you probably hit the main island, as the smaller ones may be nicer with less people to disturb them.
I hear you on that as most of the pines are of limits for years now.
thank you.
always,
ron

Comment from Dick Lee Shia
Panoramic capture!
Fantabulous island with a weird name.
Fine features & textures.
Centered framing which can be modified into a visually balanced composition if you've placed the island on the left grid line.
Still an excellent shot.
Pin sharp focusing. Good perspective & long depth of field... Thanks for sharing...

Comment from nikman
When I saw your title I thought Whitehaven, England? But then I saw your photo and knew instantly yours is better! Where in the world is it? Like your cropped central composition. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done!
