Bahia de Los Muertos Sunset |
Red sky at morning, sailors take warning. Red sky at night, sailors delight. I always have believed this adage, but it's not always true in Baja. The combination of sea and desert makes for some outrageously brilliant red skies, both morning and night. Sunrises and sunsets at Bahia de Los Muertos exemplifly this phenomena. Under the glow of a predawn sky we motored through pale mauve seas slowly edging our way towards the Cerralvo Channel enroute to La Paz.

Our early morning departure |
The morning prelude; a muted sky gradually crescendoed to yellow, pink, and red clouds; then suddenly as if trumpets and horns heralded a new day, the heavens opened and a fiery orange ball peeked over the horizon.

A speechless sky speaks volumes |

The new day begins
Looks like it's going to be a good one! |
And the award for the most amazing sunrise photos goes to...El Tib. Wow, did you ever capture it!

ReplyDeleteI've been enjoying reading your blog. Darrell I bought my husband Theo the Steinbeck book about the Sea of Cortez. He has really enjoyed it. We are both very jealous of the time you get to spend in such a beautiful place.
Take care!

OMG Sarah! Gorgeous! I'm trying to imagine the noises that went with them, water and wind. The ocean smell...too much!! Sinks right into your soul! Amazing that all you have to do in this magic world is point and shoot. Some Earth Day celebration! xoxo Thank you!
