ahh! i went there about 2 months ago! first i went to rarotonga for a week, but then i went to aitutaki and... wow. stunning. my pictures don't do a justice. you are so awesome for capturing almost all of its beauty on camera, but naturally, it looks better in person.

wonderful shot, gotta love the colours and the composition. plus, the feet with the fins in the air gives it a slightly ridiculous look in my opinion, which reminds me of life aquatic

That's crazy. It looks like a giant swimming pool because of the water color. It seems like you really enjoyed your trip.

Although Im everyday in crystal clear water like that in the caribbean, we by no means have the snorkel biodiversity like that... Making me jealous much!
