Does anyone know why the image looks messed up?
Was it digitally blurred?

Looks pretty clear as these images go. There is a lot of washed out color where the bare white stone is but I think that's just because the reflection is so hight it's overwhelming the CCDs in the camera. You see it often in the images taken of the beaches.
