    @concerned – damn, how totally embarrassing!!! I could have sworn I did the creative commons search when I was getting this post together!! I have replaced the offending couple of photos with creative commons ones that are equally awesome. Sorry for the mess up.

    The first one with the green sea bottom is spectacular. I was wondering were some fotos digitaly put together. Like taking the right sky first, than the tree at the right time of the day, to ret the correct shadow and so on. Or was it taken in one shot with filters, perticulr angle lends etc. I have no fotos of my own aas yet ‘cose my agency lost my luggage in the Carabbean together with my equipmet and all my photos. Now I bought a Casio Exilim G 2.13 , 10.1, shock resistant and 10m waterproof, which will have to do for the time beeing untill I can afford propper equipment. By the way I am a novice, but now I’ll have to work even harder. All in good time. Hey, I have to buy something to ware first. Still, I love to shoot, and learn eaven more.
