Hi Clunk. Thanks for posting here.

The landscape looks similar to that of ours. Is the climate there tropical all year round?

I haven't shot a landscape myself but i reckon it'd be a more interesting shot when the sun is higher. But I noticed there is cloud up there so it might be blocked somehow too.

For showing the sea, it's slightly on the low side on exposure.

I would crop to a panoramic photo instead, as such, to highlight the contrast in the scene.

Hope you don't mind me doing things to your photo :D

Just my cmi two cents ;)

Thanks for sharing and keep posting!

Thanks for the comments, will keep them in mind.
Yes, the climate is very similar to Singapore, only thing different is we can go for up to 8 months without getting rain in our dry season, May -Dec.

Nice shot Clunk, if the dry season's on, will the air get a bit... hazy as a result?

Yeah we get quite a bit of haziness due to bush fires. Some time bush fires more than 20 km away on the other side of Darwin harbour can dump smoke and ash on the city.
If I remember correctly the first time I went to Singapore and KL, there were fires in Indonesia and people were suffering the consequences of smoke and ash. We have never had it as bad as that.
