This is my first post here on NPN. I took this photo last week while visiting St. John in the US Virgin Islands. We were down there on vacation, and I was able to get out and take some pictures while enjoying the sun and warm weather.

Canon D60, 300/4+1.4x, ISO 100, 1/500 @ f5.6. Exp. comp -1/2, cropped slightly for composition.

All comments are welcomed.
