Valparaiso at night. This is a beautiful colorful port city located in Chile. Our hotel had a nice view so I set the camera up to do a 24 hour time lapse and this is one of the shots that it took in sometime in the night.

In Sydney, we get some pretty cracking electrical storms every now and then. This bolt of lightning literally lit up the sky over Sydney's CBD almost hitting the iconic Sydney Tower.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Tuesday of Antarctica and World´s Oceans week #26 – winner announcement!

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

We had been finishing our road trip in 2014 in a town of Hel, Poland. We just checked in in a hotel when I realized, something was happening with the light. I grabbed my gear and ran to the sun hoping there should be the sea. Happily, Hel located on a peninsula and the sun were setting on the shore in the shortest distance from me. On the beach, I noticed the seagulls and thought they could be a nice foreground. But they noticed me too, so I ended up trying to catch them and the waves in one shot.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – African Wednesday week #26 – winner announcement!

@ansharphoto African Wednesday entry:

Quiver Trees, Namibia. The Afrikaners called the trees kokerboom, but because their fibrous, pulpy trunks are easy to hollow out and were once widely used as quivers for arrows for bushmen, they are known as quiver trees. The trees are naturally found in only this one relatively small part of Africa, and typically grow alone, like curiously-formed sentinels guarding the landscape. There are fewer than two hundred of them left in the world.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – European Thursday week #26 – winner announcement!

@stabilowl European Thursday entry:

Another photo of the township of Hallstatt, this time in the middle of a stormy afternoon, looking across to the wharf from the lakeside walkway. The low lying clouds covered the mountains behind the town, making it look mysterious and misty, while some afternoon sun still managed to shine onto the storm clouds illuminating the buildings along the waterfront. A view that is worth getting wet for!

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – North American Friday week #26 – winner announcement!

@derangedvisions North American Friday entry:

During our vacation to Oregon earlier this year, we traveled to Crater Lake. While we were there, we met this hiker, who went by the name "Gentleman", who was traveling by foot from Mexico to Canada. He said he had been on the trail for a few months and was hoping to be done within the next month. I could only imagine the stories he has.
