The picture is really nice to look at. But the notes kind of made me feel sad. Let God save the nature and his belongings. Feel bad to Knw what happened to this beautiful island.

This is very beautiful. The water is such an unbelievable blue. Yes, it is so sad that Irma and Harvey have done so much damage. Your shot has great clarity, superb focus and a lovely angle. The green is also adds a nice touch.

This is a wonderful shot of the pristine beauty that was this island Before Irma. The devastation is awful. Nice touch adding the foliage in the foreground.

It is so very sad to read about the destruction of this island, while looking at a photo which shows a most beautiful vacation location in a well composed and framed photo. What are those people doing in the water? It looks like someone is starting up into space.

Comment from Lemur Larissa
What a beautiful place. I would love to have gone there while it was still an island paradise. It will be a long time before it is this beautiful again. I think this is the best way to remember it, as it was.

Amazing shops, amazing water and beaches and people.

Comment from shoregrass
Truly beautiful and tragically sad to lose the beauty, but more so lives. Your shot is wonderful in composition and technically. Yes, climate change is real, not so sure about our current president. Ed.
