About Well, its not falling. But the slopes of the three palms looked to me as if it shows the stages of a fall.
Thanks for all comments and suggestions.

Could have been a case 'in the right place at the right time' if you hadn't been honest :-) The colours are a treat for the eyes Ahmed, well done

It is such imeages that are not only "nice" but do also offer something special to see! Indeed much like a slowmotion of the fall of the palm. Also, the composition is very well balanced as again there are only the horizontal bands of different hues, and some additional brush strokes for breaking the monotony.

Very well seen!

Hi Michele,
Yes, its amazing how they hold on being bend so low that they almost touch the water. The times I have come across one of these, unfortunately I didnt have the camera.
Those are corals piled originally in the form of a wall, to prevent the beach from erosion. We have two seasons here. Not really seasons, I think they are monsoons. The South West and the North east. The sand bar that is common at one end of the island in one monsoon, moves to the otherside of the island during the other. The movement is not total though. Sometimes, the movement of the sand around the island erodes parts of the island. To avoid this walls like these are used on some islands.
Best Wishes, Ahmed

A beautiful shot of the 3 Palms...I think they bend Ahmed....well I know they bend and sometimes they do break but so rarely. I remember reading about the tsunami and this is when I understood how bendable palms are.... Anyway I love the water of course, the sky , and the white sand but I am curious what is the rock piles about ?
Excellent shot my friend !!! 7+++++
Regards,
Michele~

hahaha, cool shot, Ahmed! I didn't really notice the "falling palm" at first. What an idyllic looking place. Amazing colour of the waters down there with pure white sandy beaches... Paradise! Cheers, Gary :)
