Just back from the Maldives.
Here are a few images from our holiday in the Maldives, where we were celebrating my wife's 40th birthday.
We spent time at two resorts, first was Veligandu Island Resort, then the Conrad- Rangali Island. Both fabulous! D300 & 17-55 f/2.8 C & C most welcome. Cheers Marc Hooked up to a Blue-fin Trevally  Jacuzzi sunrise, water villa view.

You must be bloody happy with these. Like the others the third and second image (in that order) stand out most for me. The strong edges to the sun's rays in #3 really make for a powerful shot while the lovely blue tones and subtle light in #2 work fantastically well. I think that last shot in many other contexts would be a cracker too, but it just loses out to the wow factor of the middle two images. And not a wild animal in sight  Peter

Marc,
these are great photos, #3 and #2 are fantastic. Looks like it was a great success for your wife's birthday André Photography, as a powerful medium of expression and communications, offers an infinite variety of perception, interpretation and execution. Ansel Adams
