This is a drone shot taken at the Grossglockner High Alpine region. At 3,798 metres above the Adriatic, the Grossglockner is the highest mountain in Austria. Driving in this area is a feast to eyes. The winding roads are like ribbons flowing between the majestic mountains, lush pastures and flowery meadows.

Thale Noi Lotus Lake, South Thailand. Today I share a image which I took last weekend on one of the most beautiful lakes during sunrise I've ever seen. It's a lotus flower lake in the south of Thailand surrounded by breathtaking landscape.

I will never stop loving this magnificent island named Rottnest and its beaches. And this one is just one example of how beautiful and sustainable is the island. One of my favourite location in the whole of Australia.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Tuesday of Antarctica and World´s Oceans week #89 – winner announcement!

@jpphotography Tuesday of Antarctica and World´s Oceans entry:

Dark Clouds over New Zealand Beach. I don't remember on which of New Zealand's countless beaches I took this shot, but I believe it was somewhere on the North Island's West Coast. Despite the dark clouds in this photo, I was lucky to have almost no rain during seven weeks in this beautiful country.

@vcclothing African Wednesday entry:

While on a bush walk in the Okavango Delta in Botswana, we came across this Zebra family. Not long after, the rest of the herd emerged from the bushes and they all started to run past us then joined up with a herd of wilderbeast of in the distance. It's amazing to see all the wild life Africa has to offer.

Biogradsko Jezero represents the largest mountain lake in Montenegro. It is located on Mount Bjelasica, and wooden environment makes the most beautiful part of the national park Biogradska Gora.

Water is supplied by glacier melting from the mountains and during the autumns it's usually low, as it can be seen on the photo.

Beautiful! :)

I have spent a holiday on amazing island officialy called Thera, but we know this island like Santorini with beautiful white houses. Did you know that Santorini (Théra)has more churches than houses, donkeys than men and wine than water? Of course we wasted by local wine. :))

We are here at Sardena on one of the most beautiful islet of this main island. Islet "del mal di ventri", which means something not really romantic, but the essential is that this islet is wonderful, one of the most beautiful anchorage of Sardena. Enjoy and dream in waiting for this summer !

Sunset at City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia, Spain

Europe has some stunning modern architecture. One prime example is the City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia, Spain: The complex is controversial because of its high cost, but the architecture is certainly impressive!


1/30s; 20mm; f/9.0; ISO 160

I have also posted this photo on my blog.

Beautiful place, spectacular architecture and of course wonderful with those solar rays of the sunset.

Purple sunrise


Very early morning at the coast of Northern Cyprus not far from Kyrenia. Shot during our vacation there few years ago. While everybody still sleeping, I;m not about to lose such an opportunity to shoot sunrise while hotel is just nearby the seaside. Normally I;m too lazy to wake up if need to spend rather more time to reach destination shooting point

Prefect rocky coastline is very different from what we have here at sandy Baltic Sea. That's why much more interesting for me personally. Was quite lucky to experience very calm morning with perfect burning skies

Enjoy it!

Sunrise over Northern Austria ~ 🌟 ~ which somewhat looks like a Californian one :)
It really is not all too often that the sky produces such an intense atmosphere around here and it was lucky that I had been avoidable at this hour to document it...! ~ We are not staying in a big city but the ˋfancy thing´ that rises up higher than the surrounding trees is a floodlight mast sometimes active in the evening :)

Slavín is a memorial monument and military cemetery in Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia. It is the burial ground of thousands of Soviet Army soldiers who fell during World War II while taking over the city in April 1945 from the occupying German Wehrmacht units and the remaining Slovak troops who supported the clero-fascist Tiso government.

The old centre of Turin from the top of the Mount of Cappuccini. The photo was taken before the sunset when the sky was clear to see the Alps as well as the tallest building Mole Antonelliana.
