Description
Many years ago I sailed through the Grenadines and had anchored in Salt Whistle Bay. It is a magical place with turquoise water, and beaches lined with palm trees. Accentuated with a cacophony of tree frogs in the evening with our rum punch. It is paradise!
This year Deb and I had sailed into Salt Whistle Bay expecting more of the same. But it was not to be sadly. The beach was lined with rafted up power boats almost blocking the view of the beach. The anchorage was crowded. And new businesses had sprouted on the beach. These played loud music into the evening. I suppose it was a fun place to be, but the natural beauty had been buried with progress.
Fortunately some boats moved off in the early morning. I hooked up my telephoto lens and photographed this panorama of the beautiful palms lining the beach. It was shot in 5 sections then stitched together to make a 1 by 3 panorama with very high resolution. The detail in a 20x60" metal print is stunning (or any other style).
