Kakanui Beach, North Otago, New Zealand. I considered removing the people and the dog but decided they add a bit of interest. Taken with Canon EOS 450D..Thank you for viewing :) . .Any comments/opinions most welcome.

You've captured Paradise on Earth, Lyn. The people and the dog gave your image a dynamic touch. Wonderful post!

Fantastic shot, and all the better for keeping the people and the dog. Good editorial eye.

I'm glad you left them. Surely we deceive ourselves by thinking that no land is every touched by man and why shouldn't we see such beauty being enjoyed by man as God intended. No matter where you take a shot in that wonderful country of yours, it seems drenched in beauty.
(And that's what I wrote on the other one too). lol

Gads...I would KILL to have water like that around me. The people and the dog are needed in this image.

Lyn... can't believe you just left them... They could be shipwrecked survivors! Great image, great colours and well composed.

Being part of a community brings out the best in people.
A great view of this wonderful beach scene Lyn. I agree the people and the dog add to the image.

After 50 years of photography I shoot for memories not perfection
I imagine they are more happy to not be "rubbed out" Lyn. They add a lot of perspective and the dog especially needs to be there. Beautiful warm colors.
Excellent post.

I'll meet you at the edge of the sunlight, just behind the shadows.

Such a beautiful colourful capture, and the people and dog are just right.

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??
What an idyllic spot for a dip! I'm very envious of them having that beach all to themselves. Unusual too to see a beach with all that green as backdrop. Leaving the people in was a good idea because it really brings home the scale of the landscape.

Leaving people in pictue was a good decision by you Lynn...gives perspective...nice composition...nice to see in the dead of winter in northern hemispshere...gerry

I agree with Gerry as leaving the people in gives a better perspective of the size of the place. Love the contrast between the colours of the sea, beach and green land. Well done!

What a beautiful wonderful photo! It would have lost something if you had removed the people for sure. Them being their gives so much feeling to the scene. How wonderful the land is there.
And you've taken a most lovely photo. Verena
