Sigma 10-20mm, ISO 100, f/9, 1/125. Was using a Vivitar 58mm circular polarizer--worked for the vacation, but not a good, long-term filter investment--cheaply made.

Sigma 10-20mm, f/4 (for shallow DOF), 1/320. Shot on the walking path between Anse Chastanet and Anse Mamin. Path approximately 400 meters--I recommend a sturdier walking shoe (as opposed to flip flops) so that you can do a little off-roading on the surrounding trails and coast line.

Near deserted at Anse Mamin. Sigma 10-20mm, f/ 3.5, 1/250. Travel bonus for visiting St. Lucia off-peak in October: Over the course of four hours, shared this beach with, maybe, three other couples. Was completely safe leaving my beach towel and gear under the palms to cool off in the beautiful and warm Caribbean sea.

Geology buffs? I'll gladly add the technical name for these sweet, ocean-raked rock formations at the end of Anse Mamin in St. Lucia. Sigma 18mm, f/9, 1/125

At Anse Mamin. Post work done in Photoshop--attempted to crush the highlights a smidge more-stopping down with an ND filter would have helped--getting sand on my lens would not have though :) Sigma 10mm, f/5.6, 1/250
