Mauritius

I'm in the Mauritius this week (I know, lucky me...) and caught this interesting juxtaposition of two different beach workers at my hotel. Taken at 1/25th second at 300MM it lacks critical sharpness at full zoom but I'm pretty pleased to be able to have got anything at that shutter speed and focal length!

Interesting looking is the black skin contrasted by the white textil. MCsaba

I like the muted feel of this, Tim, the richness of the skin tones and little areas of red against the grey, white and green.
Flick.
