Since I just posted a portrait photo from Africa, I might as well share it here. :) I took this one in a primitive tribe in the Omo Valley in the south of Ethiopia, not far from the border with Kenya. Like the other girls in the tribe, these 2 sisters decorated themselves with bright-colored beads.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - Asian Sunday week #81 - winner announcement!

@sinochip Asian Sunday entry:

Halong Bay is probably a must visit in you're in northern Vietnam. So being a first time visit I did what all tourist did, even though I hate doing that. I took a cruise out to Halong Bay, boarded a smaller boat, toured around the limestone structures, watched how the locals live on their boats and finally went to Dong Thien Cung to look at the stalactites and stalagmites. All very touristy. Here's a photo I took when I was inside Dong Thien Cung, and I have to admit, it was quite remarkable inside.

@fotogruppemunich Australian Monday entry:

I took the picture of the skyline of Sydney from the Overseas Passenger Terminal at the harbour. I tried to find another perspective to photograph the city. If you look at the picture in large you can even see some stars in the sky.

Incredibly transparent sea with the colorful sign "Holbox" in the foreground. Holbox is a beautiful island in the Mexican state of Quintana Roo, located on the north coast of the Yucatán Peninsula. It is approximately 41.84 kilometres (26 miles) long and 1.5 kilometres (0.9 miles) wide, and it is separated from the mainland by 10 km of shallow lagoon that is home to flamingos, pelicans and other rich birdlife.

Camels and Guide, Morocco

Visiting the Sahara on the back of a camel was one of the experiences in Morocco that I will never forget. Watching the wind blow across the red dunes from the back of these majestic animals was incredible!

I have also posted this photo on my blog.

Photo is from Mahango National Park in Namibia at the start of Caprivi area. I was there in 2015.
That afternoon we took a boat cruise and it ended with typical, but sensational African scene. Sunset with two hippos and bush at the riverbank makes my memory on that day fabulous.

Nile panorama


So known Blue Nile, well, actually as just a river it is not really blue, but sometimes still can be if catches some reflection from the sky. So here we have pretty phantasmagoric Nile panorama shot from top deck of cruise ship while traveling up the river from Luxor to Aswan

Enjoy the scenery :)

Interior of the Abu al-Abbas al-Mursi Mosque of Alexandria, Egypt. Fascinating to see all the work made to embellish the Mosque. it's even more beautiful when all the lights are on, but during the prayer I did not dare take a picture not to disturb.

I love the first image showing the culture of the country!
