Jamaica 2002; just grabbed a Rum Runner from the bar and was walking by this hammock at the resort when I though, "damn I need that view as wallpaper for the office system", so it was a one handed shot right after a gulp of rum. (Nice Couples Resort)

I almost can't believe you took this. For one thing, it's just too nice... I WANT TO GO THERE! Another thing is, this is so perfect it could be on the cover of a travel magazine. Awesome.

It was taken with my Kodak 4.0 Megapixel digital, at the Couples resort on the North end of the Island. I was laying in the hammock with a "red stripe" beer in hand and thought that I'd better take this shot to use as wallpaper on my office desktop to remind me to go back. Thanks for the comments.

It's a gorgeous picture, but if you want to pretend you just snapped it while relaxing in a hammock, you should do a better job of cropping out the light stand in front of the palm tree on the right.

Uh... having actually BEEN to Jamaica, I can attest to the fact that some of the palm trees at resorts have flood lights attached to them, for after-dark illumination. That was for the critics. Way to snap, Rick. "Ah give it a tin."

It's a Couples resort near Montego Bay... Examine the boat through the hammock netting (logo). No kids were allowed on the resort, and people were smoking dope right on the beach - it was a wild site to see.
