Tip of Borneo - Tanjung Simpang Mengayau

A couple of tourists on the tide pools at Tanjung Simpang Mengayau (Tip of Borneo).

This is the Northernmost point of Borneo Island.

For more information about this place, read en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tanjung_Simpang_Mengayau

Those rocks are very slippery and this place can be dangerous (I slipped, fell in sea water in a deep hole and bumped my knee pretty good. Camera survived the fall, thanks goodness). Go at your own risks!

Photo processed in HDR with Tone Mapping from a single RAW exposure.

This rocky cape is in fact oriented in the W-NW direction, and it was afternoon so the sun was in front of me and almost in my wide-angle lens on this photo, which explains the backlight situation. The vignetting is completely natural (I never add artificial vignetting to my photos).
