The colors are beautiful.
I would like to get out of my bed now and go for a walk on that beach!

Welcome to your first image here, Mauricio. I particularly like the pastel tones and the harmony between the colors of the beach and of the sky.

Welcome! Nice soothing image with wonderful color. Like how the mass and dark top on the post anchors the image.

Thanks Jakov, I took the picture early in the morning right out of my bed.

I would simply stay in bed and look at this beautiful picture of a calm scene

Thank you for your kind words Frank

Relaxed, that was my mood when I was there. Thank you John.

Wonderful colors, makes me wish I was there

Gracias Armando, makes me wish to come back soon, haha.

Hi Les, thanks, it is Fuji 200, I don't remember if it was Xperia. Low resolution lab scan.

Hi golunvolo, glad you notice that detail, I like it too. I was thinking for a while to clone that part, at the end I leave it as originally recorded in film.

Hi Thomas, glad you like it. Thanks for your comments.
