[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The sunsets at Nungwi, Zanzibar Island, are amazing. Boats float peacefully in the ocean under the intense, setting sun. The tropical islands known as Zanzibar have been designated a World Heritage Site. The main islands of Unguja and Pemba are known as the spice islands due to their historical significance in the production of spice. The long and important history of Unguja can particularly be seen in the old buildings and narrow streets of Stone Town, the main town on the island.

Another view can be seen here.

A more unusual sunset on red and blue instead of the common red and yellow. The image is very nicely composed but very soft. I wonder if good part of the resolution was lost during the scanning process.
