 Thanks for all the kind comments.

Went for an evening walk along the beach and took the Lumix LX3 along just in case. Deb ( Melethia) called it the way I saw it, I was already leaving but it was the light on the sails that stopped me in my tracks. It only lasted a short while.

Cropped out quite a lot to remove the rock jetties which jut out from the beach. Not much processing, Nik viveza to increase saturation and structure, and curves adjustment to increase contrast.

Truly beautiful the way the light falls across the sails. Such a tiny part of the photo but so very important!

Is this place real or did you have to use your magic watercolors?

Love the colors, composition and subject. I think it could be brighter or clearer or something - without increasing the saturation. Voted earlier.
