Thanks Attila, this is a beautiful place with amazing beaches and lagoons! Shame I'm not on a holiday. And almost everyone has told me not to move around with my camera so I just have this combo, which passes as a P&S.

Man. not exactly, actually we're in opposite corners in Brazil: you're in north and I'm in south, 4.2K km's or so. But I do now very well the place you're in. I used to go to Fortaleza and several beaches near it, like Paracurú, Canoa Quebrada and Jericoacoara.
Don't forget you're in the lobster's heaven: by the beaches around Fortaleza the prices are even more affordable than in a tourist restaurant in town.
The place you've took the photo remembers me the beach called Praia do Futuro in Fortaleza, where is located the Othon Palace Hotel. I envies you, I'm almost freezing and you in the tropics by the beach!
Pay attention to the UV rays and get a nice color to show in Finland when you go back home,
Wish you the best, and bring a lot of pics!

So Fortaleza is a town? One of my company's vessels is named after it. |

Not bad result at all . 
I like the colors and the mood .If you allow a suggestion , maybe the horizon could be closer to the bottom letting a little more sky ?
The Oly did a good job ,and the stabilisation too ,I suppose it's handheld?

Thanks Renato, Teo and Lena!
Renato, I know, quite a few of my colleagues are traveling from Porto Allegre and they told me it is almost 5deg there! By the way I met a guy on the bus to Cumbuco who was with his Yashica MG and 50/1.7. He said he prefers it to the new digital he has as it gives him consistently good pictures. So it seems there are MF users here! That photo was taken on Beira Mar near the open market. Unfortunately I can't try the local delicacies as I'm a vegetarian. 
Now from today the conference has started so not much chance of traveling I'm afraid, but I'm making plans to come back!
Teo, thanks for your suggestion. I fully agree. It is just that there was quite a lot of vignetting on top so I cropped it. I will try to upload the uncrped You are right it was handheld.
Ok now off to the beach for some well earned beer after a long day on construction sites!
