Last November Jeff and I took a most memorable trip to Costa Rica. Yes, it was this green and yes this scene did look like what I imagine Shangrila, Paradise and the Garden of Eden would look like all rolled into one. The clouds are a combination of clouds and steam/gas escaping from the volcano. We could hear it rumbling at night, accompanied by the sound of howler monkeys in the trees. This photo was taken from the balcony of our motel room, and we were actually closer to this active volcano that it looks. I wanted to include the beautiful sunset sky and the lush vegetation, so I used a wide angle lens, which, as we know, distorts perspective.

Reminds me of "purple mountains majesty..." though I know it's not in our country. It's gorgeous!
UAU! Que foto incrÃvel!
Beijos.
Magic! Mysterious!
Almost more real than reality!
what a gorgeous image Karen!!!
That is just beautiful. You must have decided it was too beautiful to spoil with a calendar on it.
It looks like a photo out of a travel magazine or an adventure book! Great shot Karen. That cloud and the dense jungle give it a real sense of mystery.
It does look like paradise.
The pink cloud almost makes it unreal. Lovely.
Amazingly beautiful!
Wow this is an amazing one. It's hard to believe some times that God did create all these goodies just for us to enjoy them.
I can hear the jungle sounds emanating from the forest. How lovely! Thank you for another great desktop image!
