Golden Rippled Dawn
The sun rises above a bank of distant clouds and casts golden, rippled light towards shore, San Pedro, Ambergris Caye, Belize.
The family and I went on an international trip for the first time in two years over the winter holiday. In the months leading up to our departure, we arranged for some Scuba training so that we could complete our certification after two afternoons of open-water diving in Belize. Right on the horizon in this photo lies a portion of the second longest barrier reef in the world, and it supports an astonishing diversity of animal life, from corals, to fish, to turtles, to sharks, rays, and eels. It was remarkable to float, effortlessly and weightlessly, above all of that concentrated life.
On this particular morning, my oldest son suggested we get up and photograph the sunrise. This dear boy suggests getting up before 10:30 only very rarely. Of course, I agreed to get up with him, and the two of us wandered down to the shore and out onto a pier to take in this sight before returning to bed.
