Photographer's Note
Hengam Island is located at south of Qeshm Island and in the Persian Gulf. Hengam Island is 36.6 km wide with the truncated cone shape. The island is generally Calcareous and generally low lying. The highest point on the island is Nakas Mountain that is about 106 meters. The distance between Hengam Island and Qeshm Island is about 2 km through the sea.
The primary economic activity is fishing, though there is some tourism and sightseeing on the Island. From the beach, many aquatic animals such as turtles, dolphins, corals, and sharks can be seen.
Most people travel to this island from the Qeshm island and by the motor boats as you see in the shot the one which took us there. This beach is also called silvery beach, because of the black parts you see in the coast which glitter under the sunlight. However, those bright spots are made of iron!

Salam Atousa,
very nice POV, I like how your use natural environment to fram the picture, yet there is plenty of open space to see the water and the motor boat, which adds some liveliness to the composition the color combination of blue green and golden bronw work very well. Interesting to see the desert landscape by the sea. Good detials of the rough texture of the soil and rock, and very good depth. Have a good day.
Thanks.

An interesting coastline image and framing, these rocks seem like big teeth of an animal about to eat the little boat !

Salam Atousa,
Your creative framing goes well with your note, the calciferous detail provide a very nice frame for the sea and it's all captured with good light balance, color and sharpness.

Salam dear Atousa
An informative note to go with that picture for which you found an original pov and made a good use of these 'hanging' rocks. It seems there are no people, but your pilot and his boat waiting for you.
Cheers

Hi Atousa
This is a great POV like looking from the inside out. The light management was well done as we can see details in the overhanging rocks as well as the BG scene.

Hello Atousa,
This nice scene manly consisted of the picturesque rocks and blue sea has an excellent frame also made of rocks. Including the fishermen and their boat into the composition gives more life and scaling to the scene. Very well composed and captured with perfect depth of focus and skillful management of light and colors!
Best regards,

Hi Atousa,
Creative frame to the background seascape through foreground gap, clear to show the rough rocky surface and variety type of geographical features, should be a beautiful rocky island for visit, thanks for sharing.

Hello Atousa, You have made good use of the rocks in the FG for framing this lovely coastal scene. The light is well managed, the colours are rich & natural & the colour contrast between the water & land works very well. I like the inclusion of man & boat, adds interest. Interesting note, thank you
