Photographer's Note
Swimming at Man O'War Bay.
Captain Cook named Man O䁗ar Bay after dropping anchor there on his 1769 voyage. He observed that the kauri trees growing there would make ideal masts for the Man O䁗ar sail powered wooden battleships which formed the backbone of British naval supremacy for more than two centuries. Timber from Man O䁗ar Bay is rumoured to have been used as masts for Nelson𠏋 triumphant fleet in the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805.

Nice shot, nice work with the saturation. Reminds me of Fiji. I'll have to go to this beach sometime, lovely clear water.
Awesome shooting, thanks for sharing.
