Floats my boat

Louise Cooke

Floats my boat

Pulu Beras or “Prison Island”, Cocos Islands. Sure floats my boat….(for Gez!)

Prison Island got it’s name from it’s small size and it’s inaccessibility during high tide unless on a boat.

Last century, the tiny island was owned by Alexander Hare. He lived here in the only house on the island with something like 12 women and a heap of children…..what a life!

    I love the way you set this shot up. The boat is perfectly isolated and yet the shapes of the sand and ocean are another beautiful scene all by itself. Bravo!!
