I was in Costa Rica, staying in Puerto Viejo for a winter holiday with my family. I arrived a few days early and on this day I was wandering along the black sand beaches back to my hostel. As the sun set the palette of colors shifted to a cool series of charcoal and blues. I came upon a group of what seemed like wild horses and began to take photos. After a few moments this one seemed like she recognized what I was doing and proceeded to pose while I shot.
