I always dig the way you compose your foregrounds...Makes it seem easy to just step right into the picture.

I like the down of the picture(great colours) but the upper part... The sky is quite boring, and that's what I dislike about this photo. And the angle is interesting.

Those two spikes are coloured in a way that would suggest a few people missed the water when they jumped - Ouch!

have pictures of that place from my visit.
didnt get as close as you are in this shot.
figured it was a hotel.
"lifesavers club" is just like a social beach club?
