Cocos Keeling Islands

It's been a while since I've had a chance to take photos worth sharing, but I got out a few weeks back for a work trip. Unfortunately was either Too busy, Too tired or Too hungover for most of the trip, but managed a few snaps in this tropical paradise. Going again end of April, the novelty of duty-free alchohol will have worn off, so I should have less hangover time and more photo time

My favourite of the batch, I had to watch scenes like this over breakfast every morning.



Direction Island beach.



Part of a secluded garden on Home Island



Vanessa, from complete stranger to great friend in 4 days, helped me keep my sanity in the company of workmates. Photo's a little soft, we were walking as I snapped, and I probably just moved a little out of focus



Last one for the post, I Love these little guys! The're very shy, I had to lie down in the sand for about 5 minutes waiting for this guy to show himself.



More on my Deviantart site, http://dicko78.deviantart.com/gallery/#Cocos-08 if anyone is interested. Same shots, plus a few fun 'snapshotty' ones taken with the work P&S (Waterproof olympus) also on facebook http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2009179&l=fd34e&id=1318236074

Love the first shot.Beautiful! Reminds me of my trip to St.Vincent a few years ago. Unfortunatly I went with the wrong guy.Should have been Terry (TTK)!

Life is so unfair

All I have to look forward to is rainy Dublin I suppose I'll have to stay in the pub drinking Guinness

I think the first is the best shot too, and the colour of that sea in the second is just sooooo tempting. I must say I prefer the crab shot on your website though.

Yep watching scenes like these over breakfast every morning would pxxx me off as well. Good images however.
Cheers
