This ends the beach hut series. Tomorrow, we'll ride an elephant.
@dpm: That's a nice comment. Thank you.

looks (very) familiar. lgood angle. i like how the vegetation somehow hid the right side of the hut, like a human being peeping onto something thus providing a bit mystery to the image. loving the colors and texture of this as well. very vivid...

martie from Okinawa, Japan
Beautiful! I think this was the perfect shot to end the series -- the jungle is lush, the potted plants are so colourful and the hut is fantastic. I'll look forward to the elephant ride!

Japanalia from Yokohama, Japan
This is so colourful and cheerful! A pep-up composition! It reminds me of the resort of Berjaya, on Lankawi island. We lived in such a hut which was practically sunk in greens and bushes of bougainvillea!We reached there late at night and I hated all the noise made by various birds and animals. It was a different thing next day!

@Japanalia: I know what you mean about the strange noises. And sometimes there are buzzing mosquitoes. Great comment, Gabriela.
Teresa Durães from Montijo, Portugal

This is so pleasant to my eyes, tired of white and grey tones (it is winter here). Lovely!

Viewfinder from Bradenton, United States
The concept of beach huts must be universal; but the styles are definitely localized. This has been a very interesting series.

@Viewfinder: Thank you so much, VF.
@Eleftheria, 9 years old,: Thanks, Eleftheria.
@Earnest: Thank you, Earnest.
Craiger from Vacaville, California, United States
The beach huts are so cool because they have a hint of traditional Thai architecture to them. Great series! You could post these in a travel magazine!
4 Feb 2008 12:34pm
@Craiger: Thank you, Craiger. These photos go with a story I've written which I am hoping to sell to a newspaper or magazine.

Henri from paris, France
Très belles couleurs! Comme je l'écrivais sur un autre cliché c'est le paradis, et le tourisme fait vivre beaucoup de gens ;-)
4 Feb 2008 5:24pm
@Henri: Vous avez raison. C'est un paradis stéréotypé pour des touristes. Les personnes locales ne vivent pas dans de tels beaux endroits. Merci, Henri.
@Michael Rawluk: Thank you, Michael.

amy from Rocky Mountain House, Canada
Not fair... she grumbles as she looks out at the snow and cold and brown bare branches... Beautiful paradise! (and if I just remember that there are very big ugly bugs there I won't feel so jealous.. LOL)
5 Feb 2008 3:21am
@amy: Also a lot of mosquitoes. Great humorous comment. Thank you, Amy.
Barbara from Florida, United States
So vibrant and beautiful. I love the rich wood tone surrounded by the colorful foilage. The composition is excellent. It could be a brochure. Very nice.

@Barbara: Thank you, Barbara. I appreciate that.
Photographs by M.E. from Encino, United States
neat! lively colors, the resort should use this... thought of selling it to them? :)
6 Feb 2008 1:59am
@Photographs by M.E.: Thanks. I haven't thought of selling the shot to the resort. But I would like to use it to illustrate a story I have written about the island.
