Aura at dusk Photo

Photographer’s Note

In the Juan Dolio/Guayacanes beach of the southern coast of the Dominican Republic a restaurant, beach bar opened recently. It has the peculiarity that aside from a traditional restaurant (tables and chairs), the beach sitting area is comprised of beds, including a couple inside the water. Daytime views of Aura have been covered by Emile in this picture and this one. During the day, Aura has its charm, but at night it is surreal, especially if you have a moon-free clear sky.

EDIT: Please see my picture from the end of the dock Here.

Oh, really nice colors and lightning. The lights coming to palm trees from below makes the photo look like it is not real - and still it is. I like it!

Neverless the photo are perfectly shot, especially the lights appeared from teh bottom of the cococnut tree that effects the texture of the trees.
