Sunrise Over Tranquil Waters

This photo captures the sun rising over the Caribbean, taken from my balcony aboard a ship approaching Costa Maya, Mexico. In the distance, a low, narrow strip of land stretches across the horizon, grounding the scene. Scattered clouds drift overhead, some touched by light, others lingering in shadow. The sun appears as a large, luminous sphere, already high above the horizon. Below, the rippled water reflects its presence with subtle shimmer. The image leans toward monochrome, softened by gentle yellow tints that warm the light.

For those who love skies set ablaze with color—sunsets that linger, clouds that speak in texture and light—my gallery holds a collection crafted just for you.
