Another View of Manokwari's Beach

This is another segment of nice beach in Manokwari, not far from the beach which I previously posted. Name of Manokwari is derived from native language, means an old village.

If you are a kind of person who like a natural spot for vacation, then this is a place to seriously considered; however, if you are a kind of person who look for a luxury vacation facilities and glamorous night life, then this is a wrong spot for you.

Taken very early in the morning. UV and polarizer filters were used.

Hello Benyamin,
Whether it is due to your use of polarizer filter or otherwise, the light in this early morning landscape is just divine.
I wouldn't mind being here, even if I were to live under those trees in the picture :-).
Great image!
TFS and bye.

Hello Benyamin,
marvellous nature and beautiful dense atmosphere in your series of views of Manokwari Beach. Colours both dramatic and inviting. I wish I could be there right now. Even more so after having read your description in the notes.
The copyright text on the image is quite a bit distracting to me when I look at this very subtle picture of high quality. Please apologize my wish that I'd prefer to see the image without the text burned into it.
Thank you! Best regards,
Peter

Very nice landscape my friend with amazing point of view and colors.

I like it a lot: composition, POV, color, DOF, focus, sharpness, lighting, framing.

I like it: notes.

I don't like it: nothing to argue.

Beautiful post, indeed.
Best regards... Ricardo

This is a beautiful image Benyamin. The low angle of light and the clouds are really nice. I'm wondering if one did a little pp work the focal point would shift from the dark foreground rock to the stunning backlit clouds. It may just be the way my eyes work ??? : )
