Skywatch Friday – Bako National Park, Malaysian Borneo

The moment you set foot on Bako National Park, you will be rewarded with raw, unimaginable beauty. The lush jungles were teeming with life. We were walking around the park head quarters with our guide trying to spot some wildlife, when a clearing led us to the beach and this magnificent sight. The bare tree trunks, the reflections in the water, Mt Santubong rising in the background and the low lying clouds all came together perfectly.

To view other beautiful skies from the world over visit Skywatch Friday.

    Thank you! I am amazed at how many responses this picture is getting! The adjective beauty / beautiful seems to feature in almost all comments. I guess its the starkness that's really striking – exactly like what you mentioned.
