Sunset Sail, In Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico, As A City Place
|
The sailboat was a small sloop with all the tourists seated on deck.
|
A pirate ship motored past just off the starboard side.
|
A cloudy sky promised a poor sunset. No rain, just low cloud cover reaching over the horizon.
|
Other boats were out that evening. One sailboat had its sails rigged and was headed out to sea.
|
The horizon glowed red just under distant clouds.
|
The tops of the wave took on a red hue as the sunset began.
|
The sun managed to poke its glow through just under the edge of the cloud cover.
|
Despite cloud cover, the sunset turned dramatic as it lit up the entire sky.
|
The clouds to the right of the sun glowed red as if the sea were piled with molten lava.
|
The clouds to the left of the sunset remained dark and gray.
|
Like a scene from the end of the world, the entire sea and sky glowed read.
|
Three hotel buildings on shore reflected the sunset.
|
The sunset began to fade. It left behind a band of red sky still illuminating the sea surface.
|
The sun vanished with just a wrinkle of red still glowing near the horizon.
