Our chartered yacht seen from the beach of beautiful Voutoumi Bay on the tiny island of Antipaxoi, to the south of Corfu island, Greece.
Yes, the sea and sky really were so blue! The hull of the yacht was actually white!
[ This is similar to another shot that I posted some time ago, but I now prefer the composition of this one. It makes a great Wallpaper for MS Windows! ]

It's a beautiful scenary with a great composition but in my opinion, I really wish that you used F10 or higher as it will be more effective in this kind of shot and you have plenty of light. But a hit from my nonetheless.

Wow! Great!

That is some stunning scenery and I reckon you've done it justice. A well composed shot.
Sadly, judging by the comments here, it seems that you've also spoiled a secret - there will now be any number of Flickrites, armed with maps and compasses, heading for that beach.

Thanks everybody for the lovely comments.
Gun Sydney: I couldn't have used "F10 or higher" because the Panasonic FZ5 doesn't go above F8!
