Seychelles Photo Gallery by J Ponces at pbase.com

Seychelles

Another fabulous place discovered by the Portuguese, where the Portuguese had no influence whatsoever...
Another place being destroyed by to heavy (and cheap) tourism!
I just realised how few photographs I've posted! Will do more...
As it's another place I do NOT intend to return, and prefer to live on the memories...

ON TODAY'S NEWS, 2016:
"The epitome of a tropical paradise, the Seychelles is a collection of around 115 islands in the Indian Ocean and home to numerous luxury resorts. However, the islands are in danger due to beach erosion, after already seeing a devastating coral die-off. Some experts believe that in around 50 years, the entire archipelago could be submerged."

Indeed, the colours are out of the gamut as Fuji Velvia was! And thanks for that!

A lot of these images are really nice. But you've gone way over with the color saturation. Many of the colors are way out of gamut. I suggest you back off on the saturation. You've done it to the point of the colors being unnatural.

Beautiful skies, water and sea life. Looks like a great place for a photographer. Beautiful compositions. Voted.

Nice collection of photo's from the Seychelles. You hear so many people who go to nice places and say, you should have seen it a few years ago when it was slow paced and quiet.. No matter where you go man does a good job trying to destroy it... So sad.... There are still nice places to see but we have to respect it... If you come to Alberta, and travel around... it's pretty nice... the Rocky Mountain,Banff and Jasper, the farmland and the Badlands... Just google Alberta in photo's....

After seeing your photos I understand so well you intent to preserve that dream. It will never be better than you experienced it in 1994!
