my son, a navy dentist, was stationed on this island which we had heard was "the pits". he said he really liked it. so, believing that we'd like what he liked we went to visit. it was absolutely spectacular. okinawa is a long skinny island. the little cities were packed with people living very close together. as soon as you get out of town and drive along the coast real beauty is to be seen

A great shot...brings back memories. I was stationed on Okinawa for two years. We called it 'the Rock'....that was the nice name.

I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't and die to find out there is.

Looks tropical doesn't it?A pretty sight..I think people somtimes judge a place because of history of events there....I know a Marine who also said it was a terrible place.he never spoke of its beauty.

Never been there. I'm glad for the chance to catch a glimpse of it through your lens. It looks spectacular.

Life's moments are sweet. I just want to capture all that I can of them.
I think that you could take a picture of the worst possible scene and it would turn out postcard perfect :) :) :) But this was a very pretty place to begin with, I realize, and I'm so glad you captured it and sent it along....love the little rock island out in the middle with the tree growing straight out the top!!! :)PJ

Another winner. I agree with Pat about the rock with the tree. Do you have any closer shots of that?

Another gorgeous beach. You've seen many oceans it appears and they are all lovely.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

How totally cool! I love that rock that has the trees growing out of it. Man, this is where I really want to be right about now.

Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away! My gallery.
My son is a Marine and he's up for a change of duty stations. Okinawa is one of the possibilities. He's not too excited about it, but maybe this pic would change his mind. It sure looks a far sight better than Iraq! Beautiful capture.

Beautiful water. My husband landed on Okinawa during the war. Too bad he wasn't able to enjoy the beauty. I like that little tree on top of that rock about midway into the image. great capture.

If you can't find the words, you may as well shoot it...
A great beach to explore. The color and composition of this image is very good. Thanks for this great view.

Anything that excites me for any reason, I will photograph; not searching for unusual subject matter, but making the commonplace unusual.
