Phuket Boat Trip - November 18th 2007

Last Sunday saw me on one of the semi-regular boat trips organised by the couple who run the guest house I stay at in Phuket.  It was a day somewhat like the island tour around Krabi only with slightly more spectacular surrounds but a dozen or so assorted folks (mostly those staying at the guesthouse) rather than Celine.  All in all it was a top day, the highlight being the first island we saw which had an amazing amount of tropical fish hovering around the shallows.  They didn’t even stir when you waded into them, they would completely surround you, even nibble at you.  The parrot fish went a bit further than nibbling with the occasional sharp bite - little buggers.  Once again I rued my decision not to purchase that underwater housing before I left home.  First shot shows the fish, last shows the sunset and in between are a couple random travel stock shots I took through the day:

*sigh* now I wish I did hide in Jame's luggage so I too could nibble with the fishes. Shots are -awesome-, specially love the one with umbrellas for some reason.

i have to say your photoshop work is nice but the colours on my (calibrated) screen look to un-natural, shadows are green and the water is yellow, are they cmyk?
