A Tortuguero sunrise.. Skywatch Friday

During our trip to Costa Rica we were up early for the sunrises. At Tortuguero, Costa Rica we were able to watch the sunrise on the Caribbean Sea. Our room was just a short walk away from the beach. These are shots of the first sunrise on the Laguna Lodge beach.


On the shot below I like how the suns rays are shining above this cloud. I did not adjust any light on this photo but the colors got more intense as the sun was rising.


I was able to catch more of the sunrise's reflection on the water on this photo below.




It turned out to be the start of  another wonderful day. Thanks for stopping by and thanks to the hosting team of Skywatch Friday
