Sometimes, not very often, there is a special silence at sunrise. The creatures of the night went to their burrows but the animals of the day aren't awake. The voice of the jungle is silent. The wind is from the north and calm. Not even a murmur of waves. The ocean is calm and silent. It is an hour on the edges of time. Time itself seams to stand still for just a split second.

The photo was taken on the Caribbean Coast of Mexico in the State of Quintana Roo on the Yucatan Peninsula at sunrise.
