Anse Lazio | Praslin, Seychelles
From altitude above Praslin, Anse Lazio resolves into three bands - the dense green of the takamaka canopy, a strip of white coral sand, and water that shifts from turquoise to deep blue as the reef drops away.

"The quality of the images was greater than I could have ever hoped for. I am proud to call myself a collector of his work."
Matthew D. ·
Anse Lazio sits on the northwestern tip of Praslin, the Seychelles' second largest island, where the granite bedrock of the Indian Ocean's oldest islands meets a fringing reef and a beach of crushed coral and shell. The takamaka and casuarina trees that border the beach grow directly to the sand line with no gap, which from altitude creates a hard edge between deep green canopy and white shore - a boundary as clean as a pencil line. The water colour is a function of depth and the white sand beneath it: pale turquoise in the shallows, shifting to cobalt where the reef edge drops.
The three-band composition - green, white, blue - gives this image an unusual graphic simplicity for a tropical landscape. It suits any interior that needs warmth and light without visual noise, and works particularly well at 70×100 where the colour gradients in the water become fully legible.
