An aerial view of the Cozumel Peninsula and Caribbean Sea

These waters are warm, clear, calm and offer some of the best snorkeling in the world.

The Average temperature in the Summer is 82... And... in the Winter, a comfortable 75 degrees.... Grab your bathing bathing suit, your camera, and go ahead and go.

Don't know how you got up this high Forrest… but cool you did cause this is one fabulous take! Your color space is pretty tight which presents a wide range of gorgeous tones, yet keeping it all under control.
But what impresses me most is your composition and framing… the jagged shoreline that divides the image into two separate worlds, and the way that beautiful multi leveled sky melts into the sea in the upper left.
For me, this is an absolute masterpiece.
Great work !!

Thanks man !
idk? for sure, my guess is 6 - 8,000 ft.

I was so amazed by the colors, shapes and overall scene, I almost forgot about taking photos, almost.
I'm glad I did, this one will always remind me of the great weeks I had in Cozumel.
I'm glad you notice the diagonal, that is exactly what I was going for. Cropping certainly helped emphasize that aspect. Thanks again

Awesome image.

Very nicely done. I love Cozumel. When I went I left the touristy areas immediately and rented a car and started driving around the island. I love the southern point especially from atop the lighthouse. I love the water in Cozumel!

I have never taken a really good picture from an airplane but this image reminds me not to give up on the possibility! Well done!
