Very colorful art work you have here. The colors are really vibrant and really do draw the attention from a viewer. Well done to the details.

Comment from Inner Eye
Nice picture. Very secluded location I feel. The bottom portion at base of trees seems cropped a little close. This shortens the key focus point.
I like the picture overall beauty.

Thank you for your kind review.
The photo in not cropped on the bottom. In order to get more of the ground I would need to step farther back what isn't possible or have the angle lower what mean to loose the big trees.

Well that says it all. Yes I hate to see you fall into water or off a cliff. You did very well with the space you had. It is a very nice shot.

Not quite that bad Just some thorny bushes.
Thanks for the kind replay.

I wish I could say just a two words: Simply beautiful. Anymore would clutter up the review. The colors are rich and warm. The water is quiet and inviting. Beautiful work.

This is so beautiful, the place seems so tranquil the way you have presented it. I love the colors captured in the golden hour, great. The way you have composed it presenting the leaning palm trees in the center is excellent. Thank you for sharing this beauty.

Lovely colours, I love the gold colour of the palm tree trunks caused by the sun, the green of the grass and palm leaves really stand out againsthe the bluish background, the water looks so still.

It's even for us an unusual view. The waters are very seldom calm.
