Despite dawn with northerly winds, we have had a few minutes of sunrise, a beautiful moment, from the beaches of Fuengirola.

In one of the snapshots in Las Fotos de los Lectores de La Vanguardia, you can even see precisely the exact moment when the sun rises over the horizon line of the Mediterranean Sea.

A curious fact about the horizon line that we can see in the sea is that this line that separates the terrestrial plane from the air plane is not, in reality, straight.

As the planet Earth is not flat, as it is known, the horizon line follows the curvature. Although it seems to us that the horizon line in the sea creates the effect of a flat surface, in reality, it follows the curvature of the planet.

In this case we are facing the spectacle of the morning twilight, which we also know as dawn, dawn, dawn, diluculus or lubricán.
