![February 2023, when the more northerly climes were dealing with lower temperatures, this photo was taken on the beach at La Paz on the desert peninsula of Baja California Sur.
It’s a view taken between palm trees supporting green fronds above, yet their trunks–completely covered– by bristling, light-brown, serrated-edged, machete-pruned leaf stems.
That prickly frame contrasts with the soft sand in the foreground and beach grass just beyond, the aqua-blue sea in the mid-ground, and the distant scrubland hills on the horizon - all beneath an azure sky.
In the mid-ground, on the other side of the palm trees, white and robins’ egg blue-painted small fishing boats rest on the sand, casting shadows beneath, and to their left toward the still water at the shore.
As a protected bay, the wave action in La Paz [during the months observed] was never much of a feature at the shoreline, beyond gentle lapping. The overall sense was of a slower, more peaceful pace.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2fvuyiwxi7cu2eytxybnshxn/bafkreif5inelrhhihsm3y4xqrv2elvzlivn4kwnbkdhf7rpmi3dfbivp6a)
