I'm sitting in a cafe just beach side, finishing a wonderful meal with my lovely wife, and watching her as she relives her childhood, running along the beach just beyond the palms as the sun paints the clouds salmon, pink, and red as it falls into the Atlantic just off Africa.

Nice shot. Side note: It almost looks like the right palm is on fire.

beautiful sunset, the challenge within the challenge this week, is to pick the best sunset shot. This one is ranking way up there at this point.

This has tropical written all over it. Nice simple shot and I like the line created by the leaning boat and tree.

Love the boat and the leaning tree.

This is beautiful!! Love the slight bit of contrasting colors (orange/blue) that add to the beauty.

Nice shot and tones. Love how the angle of the trees and boat work together!

The cloud makes that palm tree look like it's on fire :-) Nice work bringing out the detail in the boat. Serene image

Good composition, though the one tree on the left shows a tiny bit of sky and sea to it's left which is distracting. I like how the left tree stops the eye and the line of the beach brings the eye back around only to be led to the left again by the boat and trees. The sky and clouds look beautiful with great colors here.

perfect composition and color

Has a feeling very much like I get from a Gauguin painting. Wonderful sky, brilliant silhouettes ... a pleasing image.

Great composition! I wish the boat 'popped' a little more.

Nice shot, I love the difference in textures between the puffy clouds and the sharp palm trees. I wish I was there right now.

whoa, cool clouds and colors, just wish the trees on the left were more composition-ally satisfying

makes me want to go there. a tad more brightness in the boat would have been nice.

The clouds remind me of the Sistine Chapel.

Nice. It's freaking 22 degrees (Farenheit) here and I'm looking at a beach... Very pretty shot. The boat seems a little fuzzy. Did you have to work on the levels around it? Wonder if that could have caused it. I like the colors in the sky and the clouds are very cool.

Rather evocative of Gauguin

I'm imagining a hammock strung between the trees ... with me lying in it sipping a pina colada! Gorgeous place!

a little more cropping from the left would have made this almost perfect. great shot

Very nice. I found the leaning palm a distraction at first, now i think it what makes it so special
03/11/2009 08:32:39 AMPost actions
I think if you had gotten a little lower it would have been a better perspective but its still nice!

Simply beautiful scene & wonderfully captured. Make a great calendar shot!
