A large golden turtle sculpture with a dragon's head sits on a rocky outcrop by the sea. Several smaller turtles rest on the large turtle's shell. The ornately decorated statue bears traditional Asian patterns on the shell. In the background stretches a coastal landscape with turquoise water, a sandy beach, green trees, several brightly painted fishing boats at a stone jetty, and buildings and mountains outlined in the haze. The sky is slightly hazy and bright. The scene blends cultural symbolism with natural coastal beauty, likely in Thailand or Vietnam. — Hua Hin Nov 13, 2019

A broad sandy beach with fine, pale sand stretches along a calm, turquoise bay. In the background, a striking cliff drops steeply, its grey rock surface topped with dense tropical green vegetation. On the right, large leafy trees cast shade over the beach. Low, creeping green plants with rounded leaves spread across the sand. A few beachgoers are visible at the water and on the shore, including one person in the sea and several more under a colourful parasol near the rock wall. The sky is clear and slightly hazy with soft blue. The scene conveys a quiet, tropical atmosphere along an unspoiled stretch of coast. — Hua Hin Nov 13, 2019

A golden-yellow sandy beach extends in the foreground, leading to a striking formation of grey granite that juts out into the calm, turquoise sea. On top of the rocks grows a single wind-sculpted tree with a sweeping green crown, silhouetted against the clear, slightly hazy blue sky. To the left of the rocks, lush green vegetation covers the slope. At the base of the rocks, on the left, sits a small figure or statue. The rocks show visible cracks and weathering, with bright quartz veins running through the grey stone. The scene radiates tropical calm and seclusion. — Hua Hin Nov 13, 2019

A black-and-white spotted goat stands on a large, sloping slab of dark, weathered rock. The smooth rock surface shows cracks, fissures and signs of erosion. At the top of the formation, dense green scrub and tropical trees grow, some with yellowish autumnal foliage. In the right foreground, a small, sparsely leaved tree with thin branches rises from the rock. Dry grass marks the transition between rock and vegetation. The sky is light blue with thin wisps of cloud. The scene feels tropically dry and is reminiscent of an African landscape. — Hua Hin Nov 13, 2019

A single tree with green foliage grows on a massive, rounded granite outcrop that juts out as a cliff over a calm, turquoise sea. The tree stands prominently at the right of the frame, its sweeping branches silhouetted against the bright, slightly hazy sky. The horizon merges seamlessly between the still sea and pale sky, with a thin haze blurring the line between water and air. The layered rocks are grey and weathered, streaked with fine cracks and fissures. Low vegetation sprouts here and there between the crevices. The scene conveys calm, solitude and the resilience of nature. — Hua Hin Nov 12, 2019

A tropical sandy beach on a rocky coast in Thailand, dominated by a large granite boulder overgrown with green vegetation. At its base stands a Buddhist temple with a golden standing Buddha statue and an entrance with stairs, marked in Thai script. On a rock ledge to the left stands a small white building with a pointed roof. Several fishing boats and small wooden boats lie on the pale sand. A few visitors, adults and children, stroll at the water's edge. On the right, a multi-storey residential building is visible on the slope. The sky is clear and blue, the sea calm and turquoise. — Hua Hin Nov 12, 2019

A sandy stretch of coast with gentle waves running out onto the pale beach. On the left, the calm, murky green sea extends to the horizon under a slightly hazy, light blue sky. On the right, a colourful Chinese-style temple complex rises on a rocky outcrop, with yellow walls, red trim and decorative elements including large red vase-shaped sculptures. A stone staircase with a metal railing leads up from the beach to the grounds. Large, smooth boulders lie between the beach and the temple wall. Tropical trees with dense green crowns provide shade over the temple area. A scooter and a person are visible on the upper level. The beach feels quiet and largely empty. — Hua Hin Nov 11, 2019
