Now that's a nice picture. Idyllic. Rich, deep blue sky (polarized ?) with cloud shrouded mountains on the horizon, two conveniently situated palm trees and the seamless pool/sea thingymajig going on. Very sharp too. Nice one Ray.
 
I hope it's your pool! It makes me longing for the summer..
 
You must hang out there a lot. I recognize this place from your "long exposure at dawn"
post you did. Very nice on both.
Dale.
 
You've got it right: same place as the other thread at dawn!

Only a bit lower and handheld -> about one inch over water here (I couldnt do that at dawn because I needed a 2,5 sec exposure, so I placed the camera over the pool edge)
The 24mm is just amazing!
Best

Can I be your new best friend or just the pool guy or anything, please!!!! I can even keep your camera sensor clean and dust your lenses, c'mon give me a break.

Very nice shot.
 
Lovely shot! And a lovely place to take a shot!

I might mention, however, that you may need a little more care with your PP. I get the feeling that you did some sharpening and saturation adjustments, but it seems you're creating some noticeable halos, and along with the over saturation seems to make it less realistic to me, and less likely to connect with it. If you are using a polarizer then the colours should have a relatively appealing saturation, and if you are going to make a picture smaller for the web then it will automatically look sharper anyway, so I feel the sharpening isn't neccessary. But that's just my opinion, and don't worry mate, you'll get the hang of it.

Stop looking so closely guys!
 
Very nice picture, Ray. Thanks for sharing it.

What makes this picture very special to me is your smart and wonderful composition, this pool-sea-Vitoria City-mountains combination is indeed infinite and not only through the pool.
