Marina Vallarta Lighthouse Early Morning
I took this picture of the Marina Vallarta lighthouse at about 8:30 am. Early morning, just as the sun comes over the mountains, is the perfect time to be in the Marina. In a matter of minutes, the Marina explodes in color as the sun chases away the night’s darkness.
