I suppose that I must be a culinary illiterate. Some of the ingredients sound like they would be very good tasting things to eat, and others I can't even pronounce LOL.
I see what you are talking about with the focus. In this shot it is behind the foreground. If you were shooting autofocus, check to see that you don't have spot metering set to get the high part of the frame. I am not sure about how the Canon works, but I can set the S3 Fuji to focus on the nearest object, or to focus on one of 5 points in the viewfiner. The nearest object option would work good for this kind of shot.
If you manually focused, then your eyes may be a little impaired by the recent illness.
I hope that you recover your strength so that you can do the party without being overly stressed.

Bougainvillea, right? The light streaming through really makes this.

I like this one. I'd have liked to see a B&W version of this, also, a different take on this could have been to zoom in on the fisherman, but still keeping the ocean in the shot, also in B&W.

I like the composition of this shot, the water crashing against the structure, I would have cropped the photo right under the first pillar in the foreground, but that is just my taste.

Just goes to show that location isn't necessarily everything. Talk about elevating the everyday! This is really fantastic. The light and the colors couldn't be better.

I am envious, you have color in your landscape. Everything here is brown and dormant. Can't wait till spring. Nice colors and the sun rays are cool.
