Had I not read your comments, I would have imagined the waves to be the comber. A very pure sort of picture, but an unusual perspective at the same time.

great location but let down by the exposure. Too much blown highlight.

Beautiful scene, but it would be much nicer if there was an actual beachcomber in the picture.

I like the glare off the sand cause you really do convey the idea of heat very well. 8

I took a shot very similar to this in the Bahamas a couple years ago... it's one of those shots I dig out from time to time when I need a good taste of the tropics! :)

Where's the comber? All I see is a beach.

What a great beach - I just wish there was a real beachcomber on this beach to add some drama...

Having seen the title first, I'd have expected to see a person in the shot. Looks like a nice place to be!

Such a beautiful beach! Really makes me wish I was on vacation right about now.
Think the title "Tranquil" may have worked better. For "Beachcomber" I would expect to see someone on the beach looking for shells or something of the like.

I see a beach, but no "comber."
