Tico Times Reader Bryan Johnson, a frequent visitor to Costa Rica, has shared a breathtaking image that captures the ethereal beauty of a Costa Rican sky. On yet another rainy September day, this photograph offers a refreshing escape, drawing us into a scene of serene, open skies above the coastline. The striking deep blue expanse is painted with wispy, feathery clouds that seem to come alive, reminiscent of graceful sea creatures gliding through the ocean depths.
One cloud, in particular, stands out with a remarkably fish-like shape, evoking the elegance of a sailfish soaring through the sky. Its distinct “fin” and elongated form mirror the silhouette of this iconic ocean dweller, bringing a touch of marine life to the heavens. The imagery feels almost surreal, as if nature itself is paying homage to Costa Rica’s diverse ecosystems, both marine and terrestrial.
As September’s rains persist, this glimpse of cloud-watching serves as a gentle reminder of the transition soon to come. By December, Costa Rica’s rain-soaked regions will bask in warm, breezy days, perfect for outdoor pursuits and peaceful moments spent watching clouds drift lazily overhead. Bryan’s photograph beautifully captures this anticipation of brighter days, offering viewers a moment of calm and a reminder of the timeless natural wonders waiting in Costa Rica.
In a single frame, he has distilled the quiet beauty of a Costa Rican sky, evoking both the tranquility of the ocean and the limitless expanse of the skies above.
