Playa San Miguel, Costa Rica — Pre-sunrise!     

The Island Traveler /This Man’s Journey caused a creative block when I pondered this week’s “Image of Life” theme: Breathtaking.

But a detour seemed necessary, and instantly I was swimming through sunrise memories.  Taking a deep breath I opened the folder and began dog paddling through files!
