No! I didn't take this one today, but that would have been nice!!
My 'Time for photos' today was spent starting a new gallery:
Aruba
My husband and I spent a week on the small, quaint, tropical desert island of Aruba, in December '06.
This is one of my favorites photos from our visit; the sun was setting behind me. (This is SOOC)
The California Lighthouse sits on a hilltop perch at Aruba's northermost tip. It's active days are over; the beacon itself has been closed to the public for a number of years, ever since someone committed suicide by jumping from its summit. The surrounding area features some of the island's most spectacular scenery--gentle sand dunes, rocky coral shoreline and turbulent waves.
The structure itself gets its name from the 'California', a passenger ship that sank off the nearby coast before the lighthouse was completed in 1916.
