Before the Light

Captured in the quiet moments before sunrise on October 14, 2025, the Castillo de San Marcos stands in stillness along the Matanzas Bay. The Bridge of Lions stretches faintly across the horizon, linking the fortress to the waking city beyond. In this early light, history and calm intertwine — the enduring walls of the Ancient City meeting the first glow of day in quiet anticipation.
