Sunset, Plaplaya, Honduras, 2001

Photo: A sunset view of a Honduran beach

The sun plays a quick nighttime melody over the shores of Plaplaya, Honduras, before it softly vanishes behind the trees. The peoples of these shores are the Garifuna, a hybrid through the marriage of African and Carib Indian.

(Photo shot on assignment for, but not published in, "The Garifuna: Weaving a Future From a Tangled Past," September 2001, National Geographic magazine)
