Color Challenge Sunday Purple~ Wild Orchids on Old Island Mountain Tops
Climbing to the tops of Mount Lamlam in southern Micronesia is said to be the tallest mountain in the world, if you take into account the Marianna's Trench sea drop just offshore here.
The highest point of Guam is here at 1,334 feet. The peaks of this submerged island rise 37,820 feet above the floor of the Marianas Trench, the greatest ocean depth in the entire world!
This is my Sunday Purple Color Challenge photo submissions taken with my hand held Nikon while out exploring with my boys, cheers to adventure!
Amazing scenery! you've succeeded very well with the purple colour challenge!
Oh thank you- big smiles, cheers!
Oh wow. That top shot of the orchid is stunning! :)
thank you! I just love to find flowers out in the wilderness
Fascinating post. And we dont know much about the great deep in the oceans.
Thank you~ it was hard not to hear about it living in the earthquake side of that great drop off on Guam for so many years- this was our favorite climb imagining it higher than Everest, haha!

Wow, such a lofty place, and gorgeous orchids! 😍
thank you! those hillsides over the warm sea were dreamy
