OK for those of us who are obviously VERY dense how can I get a picture posted larger than a thumbnail??

Kite Surfing at Silver Point Beach

Looking over a great stretch of sand.

This view looks over Enterprise Bay towards Oistins Town

 

-at right is "Miami Beach" where I drove you down to the end

explaining how it was accidentally created, by the building of a Coast Guard Sta. near Oistins

which then backfired by accumulating sand in and around the facility

thus creating "Miami Beach" just up-current of it!

My what a handsome looking guy in that picture !! Heres one for you.

 

[Aplmac]

Looks like you may have that Color setting at Vivid??

Maybe I should try that.

 

I now remember you used my Sigma 10-20 for this shot

and I know that lens' color renditions well enough

to know that the color in this shot is not ordinary stuff... :confused:

Alpmac - have you taken any pictures of Crane Beach lately? I hear that it's it pretty bad shape from erosion and drought?

[Ajbike]

I shoot alot in vivid , specially in the Caribbean where the colors just POP, I can always turn them down in PP, (started using Picasa, I really love it), heres some great colors off the beach.

Here are some of my memorable Barbados pictures:

 

Breathtaking Bathsheba--note the little house on the rock!

 

Bathsheba in all its glory

 

Rockley Beach with its soft, powdery sand and gorgeous turquoise-colored water

Alpmac - have you taken any pictures of Crane Beach lately? ===> Sorry, no.

I hear that it's it pretty bad shape from erosion and drought?

We had strong Southerly wind and wave action for a few weeks, steadily

which did some erosional damage to Crane Beach, yes.

 

A friend sent me some pics awhile back showing erosion but I can't find them now..

Thanks for all your pics. I was planning on taking the Glory tour that ends with Oistin Beach for swimming with the turtles. Is Oistin anywhere near as beautiful as Accura? Do you have any pics of Oistin?

 

This beach makes me want to change all of my plans. I am interested in Harrison Caves, Bathsheba, turtles and beach time. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Cheryl

 

Sorry - Mispelled Aplmac in subject line!

Do you have any pics of Oistins? ===> ..of the beach,yes!

I found two pics of Enterprise Beach in Oistins.

 

Locals refer to this beach as Miami Beach. Here are two pics of it, taken from afar

I am totally blown away by all the photos in this thread. They are amazing! Aplmac, do you use a filter or shoot your photos in raw. The colours in your photos are so vivid!

The colours in your photos are so vivid!

I use unusual lenses...rather expensive 'glass'.

 

The Sigma 10-20 renders amazing blues (like Barbados natural colors suffer for that?) :D

and the 10.5 mm. Nikkor Fisheye isn't exactly bashful in the color rendition department either.

 

The only filters I use are plain-ordinary clear UV filters

- for protection of the front element,more than any other reason

 

 

And then there's Photoshop, which I often use to reduce the blues and turquoises

down to believable levels. ;)
