Description
"Guayaquil Lighthouse" by Catherine Sherman.
Climb 444 steps up Cerro Santa Ana in Las Penas neighborhood in Guayaquil, Ecuador, to reach the lighthouse. Climb another fifty steps to reach the top of the lighthouse to see a panorama of the city.
Las Penas, meaning The Rocks, is the birthplace of the city. Charming colonial buildings line the steps to the top with cafes and shops to visit when you need a rest.
Guayaquil, officially Santiago de Guayaquil, is the largest and the most populous city in Ecuador, with around 2.69 million people in the metropolitan area. The city is also Ecuador's main port. The city is the capital of the Ecuadorian province of Guayas and the seat of the namesake canton.
Guayaquil is located on the western bank of the Guayas River, which flows into the Pacific Ocean at the Gulf of Guayaquil.

Excellent colors and great pov. I love how the blue pain continues to the ground as it circles this lighthouse. l/f
