Photographer's Note
Island of Rock Islands, Palau
Yesterday I have posted a view to the Rock Islands. Today I would like to show one of the little islands with all the green and the little beach. You could see to left and right the rocks how they are washed out by the water. So some of the islands look like mushrooms.
To get an idea about the landscape please have a look to the WS where I captured a map of Rock Island.

Bonjour John
Tu nous présentes l'île de Robinson...
La couleur turquoise de l'eau est un régale.
Plus beaucoup de place pour la végétation sur l'île ;o)
Bonne journée

Hello Achim,
What a beautiful turquoise sea you have captured, which contrasts so well with the lush green vegetation. Very good sharpness; I assume you used a fairly long focal length.

Hi Achim,
Tropen einmal klassisch wie man sie sich vorstellt. Kleine Insel (wo ist Herr Crusoe?) mit Palmen, Felsen und Strand. Scheint windig gewesen zu sein. Das ist einfach ein schönes Bild und danke für den Workshop, die Vorstellung ist dadurch leichter zu gewinnen.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

It looks like a true desert island. The colours are perfect and the details well captured. I like how you have included part of the wake from your boat.

Schöne Grüße.

Hi Achim - this place looks quite different than the tropical paradise beach shots I'm used tio seeing, the geography here looks so rugged and isolated, yet with an iviting pocket of white sand tucked in the middle.

Hello Achim
A beautiful landscape, plenty of light and color. He is pleasant to appreciate the diverse tonalities of green that the sea forms, the composition that gives the rocky structure is superb and the smooth color of the sky, very appreciable. Good work.

Hallo Achim,
Another beautiful image of this paradisiac landscape. This island of rock, flood of green vegetation and with such a white sand it contrast very well with the tones turquoise of the water and the very soft blue of the sky.
A perfect place to get lost a few days and to rest taking the Sun.
Nice work.
Best regards,
Josep

Wow! Palau! Micronesia is one of my scuba diving dreams, Achim! I´ve been diving a little bit some years ago, and after some nice diving in the Polinesia and Melanesia islands, Palau was a target destination. I hope to dive there one day. So its nice to see your picture here. The water is beautiful and the rocks are amazing. Nice colours! Have you been diving also in Yap?
Regards,
Zeca

Hi Achim!
I envy you totally!!!!
Where did you take this picture from? From a boat? I love the light and the colour, it has to be an astonishing place, in the same way your composition, placing the island or the rock on the midle of your picture, love it!
Have a great weekend!

That is perhaps the most beautiful secluded beach I have ever seen. Your workshop shows just how gorgeous the area is. I am quite envious that you were able to visit such a place :)
Were you taking a boat around the islands? The colours are excellent, and you did a good job of including the interesting rock shapes, and the beach.
