Sunrise at Sea © 2008 Bo Mackison
Sailing off the Florida Keys, the sun’s rays light the skies above the ocean,
Days later, in the middle of the Caribbean Sea, the sun disappeared. Diagonal winds crossed the ship’s deck at 45 mph and the ship sailed through 12-18 foot waves. After all day turbulence (as in staggering while walking,) the formal dining rooms were quite empty for dinner. No surprise.
About Bo MackisonI'm a photographer, book-artist, traveler, naturalist, and creator of the Contemplative Creatives Journey, An Online Workshop and Community and Desert Wisdom Cards and Workshops. Though often not well known, I find the desert a welcoming place - a healing space. Its mysteries and gifts transformed me several years ago. Since that first encounter, I return again and again to fill my well in what most people think of as a desolate region. I'd love to share my desert discoveries and wisdom with you. Please subscribe to receive my five part mini email course The Gifts of the Desert. It's my gift to you.
You are in my neck of the woods..wish you were traveling on the St John’s you could stop by for a cup of coffee or hot tea.
Looking forward too seeing more of your beautiful photos!!
Beautiful, Barbara. Really beautiful. 🙂
I suppose having the formal dining rooms emptied that way might be a bonus, but only if you don’t get sea sick. 😉
must be beauty-full see the sun disappear behind the sea…
here, at this season, always behind the mountains. one day I’m gonna get the car, and go after the sun…
So beautiful! I love the sun in the clouds!!

Beautiful shots! Very nice work!
Ooooooooooooooooooooo!!!! Yum yum….these are so wonderful. That sunset is very dramatic! I am envious. Thanks for sharing.
I can understand few people showing up in the dining room. I do love the ocean though.

gypsy-heart ~ I would love a cup of tea. When we were in the Caribbean we hit terrible storms. Do you really see the sun???
Robin and Diane ~ no seasickness for me. I simply hunkered down in a cozy lounge and wrote poetry, read books.
Everyone ~ the sunsets were so colorful down there!
What a beautiful photohs, Barbara!
Thank you for wisiting on my site.
Nice shot with a beautiful atmosphere. By the way I like your site and also discovered new blog features I haven’t realized until now. We both share the same blog layout! I also intend to publish one picture a day. Keep up the good work.

Your picture reminds me of the time I was at sea and I couldn’t tell where the sky ended and the sea began, both were identical in color. Only if I had a camera then….Drats.
