Beautiful shot Rod that is enhanced by the calm water. Could be a vote getter too eh? Maybe Rod can spark some life back into these pages. -Doug

This just totally works. The heat! The urge to go swimming! (Any kaymans in there?) Great framing & colours. Only I think I would have cropped off he muddy bit in front msyelf. -Maarten.

Thanks Techo:-) I wonder if B&W would work as a postcard.

For a postcard shot I like this image best of the three. From an artists ;) point of view I like Boaters Paradise best, I imagine it'd work well in b/w also.

Thanks Tommy:-) There's no crocs this far south just sharks:-)

Now this could be the Florida Everglades but the docks are built more sturdily for tourists to keep them from falling in to feed the crocs. -tv

Thanks Penny:-) This is a part of Moreton bay, I never used to like the Mangroves I suppose because they weren't sandy beaches but I've grown to really appreciate them now.
