Photographer's Note
I took this shot in patapat bridge that is located at the top of the philippines, border of ilocos norte and cagayan province. On that bridge you will see how beautiful the south china sea is.
The South China Sea encompasses a portion of the Pacific Ocean stretching roughly from Singapore
and the Strait of Malacca in the southwest, to the Strait of Taiwan (between Taiwan and China) in the
northeast. The area includes more than 200 small islands, rocks, and reefs, with the majority located in the Paracel and Spratly Island chains. Many of these islands are partially submerged islets, rocks, and reefs unsuitable for habitation and are little more than shipping hazards, with the total land area of the Spratly Islands encompassing less than 3 square miles. The islands are important for strategic and political reasons, however, as claims of ownership are used to bolster claims to the surrounding sea and its resources. The Gulf of Thailand borders the South China Sea, and though technically not part of
it, disputes surround ownership of the Gulf and its resources as well.

Une photo digne d'皻re encadr嶪: Couleurs riches et satur嶪s, lignes diagonales qui se d幦arquent les unes des autres, tr鋊 belle sym彋rie dans l'ensemble.

Hi Arvin, this is a simple, beautiful shot of the coastline, with strong clear lines, including the gentle curve of the horizon. I like how you've filled the frame with the four distinct elements of rock, vegetation, water and sky. They combine very well here.
Regards,
Ryno

this is a very good photo, arvin! not bad at all for someone who's using a point-and-shoot camera. your framing is good, the pov is superb and colors are rich but not over-saturated. i like it that you preserved the natural slope of the edge of the sea, proof that the earth is indeed round! keep shooting!
