Crescent-shaped Beach Attracts Crowds, Disappoints Solo Tourist – Landscape Photography

This isolated spot at the far end of the beach seems to be miles away from any civilization.

Bigger aint better

In fact, Vongdeuan Beach, on the Thai island of Koh Samet, is one of the busier beaches. Some of the largest resorts (not too mention the most luxurious and expensive resorts) are located along this kilometer-long stretch of sand. Also, some of the biggest and most popular restaurants on the island can be found here.

More aint good 

And each day, the double-decker ferries bring more groups of tourists from the mainland.  Simply stated, this beach is usually busy and sometimes gets quite crowded.  

Calmer is finer 

For over a week, I stayed at quieter beach a short walk away. Several times, however, I hiked over to Vongdeuan Beach, just for a change of scenery. 

The finest scenery I found was at this small headland at the southern end of the beach. There, I could be at peace, surrounded by greenery, flowery bushes, sand, and gentle waves lightly brushing the shore. This is my entry in @juliank’s Landscape Photography contest.

You are there at it again with the colourful, leafy frames. That's like your trademark and I love it. Overall, this is another glorious shot sir. All the best in the contest.

I look forward to seeing the ordinary people and places you transform with your camera lens and powerful descriptions.

Regards.

Hmmm, ordinary people. Not sure if I can transform them or their images ... :-)

Well, in my view, you've done that severally. I still remember the small girl you captured living near the "New India", how you told us that the quality of life had not improved in her village yet a new India was being built. That was a touching story and transformational.

Other photographers want us to see the faces of celebs and popstars but you show us ordinary people and places and make us see reasons to see what is strange in the familiar things.

You may not realize it, but I do, and I believe several others will agree with me on this.

Regards.

Its good to go in a not so crowded beach.
It looks like they have fine white sand.

That flower hanging is cool. :)

Ya, the flower was just hanging there, waiting for me and my camera.

Amazing photo. I, too, prefer the uninhabited places for rest. Good luck to you and Love.

Великолепное фото. Я, также, предпочитаю малолюдные места для отдыха. Удачи Вам и Любви.

Thanks. It was quiet and blissful.

The crowded part of the beach was noisy and chaotic.
