Check out Stanley Selengut in the background. In case you dont know he is the guy that came up with the Maho Bay concept. Cool guy for sure!

My beautiful wife sitting under this amazing tree. Anybody know what kind of tree it is?

My rookie attempts at photography. Seems really easy with such insane scenery.

The coolest picture we took for sure. I dont know why but it makes me
laugh.

Really cool driftwood on the far end of Trunk Bay (found it trying to avoid the cruise ship society)

Maho provided the perfect cap to our day, every day.

Whistling Cay. Its pretty hilarious to see 2 people who have never cooperated on a kayak try to paddle across a major boat passage. Im surprised we made it there and we didnt kill each other.

Not to shabby for a rookie :D I believe that is a flamboyant tree but not positive.

Nice photos!

The one with your beautiful wife is commonly known as a Flamboyant Tree in the caribbean. Other names are; Royal Poinciana, Flame Tree, Peacock Flower. BEAUTIFUL whatever it's name is!

Well done.
