The blue of atmosphere, the white of smoke, the red of fire.

Bahama Islands, 1986

Crabbers hunt for their quarry by torchlight on the Bahamas' Samana Cay. Many historians think that the island's Lucayan Indians using the same hunting technique may have been the lights "like a small wax candle" that Christopher Columbus wrote about in his diary before his fleet found land here in October of 1492.

Blue Atmosphere


This is one of my favourite things. Have you ever tried it?
