Very nice.

I do prefer shots of beaches with no people but maybe thats a personnel preference.

I would have run down the beech shouting "SHARK!". Then quickly took my shot :)

I did have great intentions of getting up at dawn and wandering down to take photos of the empty beaches........ I'm afraid the earliest I got out of bed was 9am though ;)

It was in Praia da Oura, East Albufeira. The weather was a bit changeable.... it rained a bit! It was warm though :) I hope you have a great holiday:)

nice photos mike, its good to have you back, I wondered where you'd been hiding ;)

I quite like people on the beach in photos sometimes, I guess it depends on the beach

Mike nice shots and good to see fellow paramotorists:).

#3 & #4 are my favourites as they both have very pleasing compositions. All are technically sound. Well done! :clap:

(edit: put wrong numbers in there - now corrected)

Just #7 for me - the others are a bit postcard-ie for my taste.

These are great shots Mike.
Number 2 does it for me. I do love these wide angle wave on the beach type shots.

Most of the rest wouldn't look out of place in a holiday brochure IMO. Maybe you could approach the resort(s) about selling some?

Thanks Marcel, it's not something I've really thought about before, how do the resorts/tour operators etc; normally get hold of the photos they use, stock agencies?

Thanks for all the comments :thumbs:
