This ocean view near Playa Brasilito, Guanacaste, offers up a typical dry-season Guanacaste panorama: slopes dotted with vegetation and dry grass, with a backdrop of deep blue.

The view was photographed at the home of U.S. citizens Rob Pisani and Nadine Hays, at Mar Vista Developments.

Would you like to submit a photo to our #TTPicOfTheDay series – the view from your home or favorite Costa Rican spot, or any other image you care to share? Please send horizontal photos at least 1100 pixels wide to kstanley@ticotimes.net. We’d love to see the sights with you.
