Description of a place
In this picture we can see a very beautiful beach. I supposed that it is situated in a hot country, maybe in the Caribbean. We don't see anybody, in the back ground , in these cabins maybe are people, tourists and natives from the island. Back to the cabins are a green mountain, which have the same form like a volcano.
The colour of the water is turquoise . In front are three palms planted in the sand. Between two palms are a white hammock, seems like is very comfortable. We can see a very nice blue sky with some clouds. Respect the sea there aren't any waves, and it is very quiet.
