Today I'm sharing a photo of beautiful Bolivia. It’s shot from a train when I traveled from Oruro to Uyuni. It's simply amazing to get this sort of view from the train windows. I wish I was that flamingo - flying above the rolling hills and below the floating clouds!

Memories from traveling in India. I've always wanted to go and see the Taj Mahal and so while renewing my Bangladeshi visa in India, I went to Agra to full-fill my ambition. I was stunned by the beauty of this monument... Enjoy.

Sunset sighting over Melbourne city. This was shot from St Kilda, a nice place to spend some time on the beach watching the sun slowly going down while the city burn of saturated colours. It is good to drink wine on the beach during summertime.

Golden Dunes. Yet next view from Egypt. Pretty amazing panorama of the golden dunes of the Nile, nearby Aswan. Shot from small sailing boat while traveling to small and authentic Nubian village.

This arch is located in northern Chile, near the city of Antofagasta, and is called La Portada. In the photo, you can see part of the city, in the background of the image. The arch is formed with sedimentary rocks and sandstone. Behind the city you see very arid mountains. The Atacama dessert is located behind those mountains.

The Salineras of Maras are located in the Sacred Valley of the Incas, 40km north of Cuzco. There are thousands of salt pools and each is owned and mined by a local family of the Maras Community. It is one of the four places in the world where pink salt is extracted. A process that has been practiced for more than 500 years can be viewed at the Maras Salt Mines in Peru.

This fascinating sunset is in the bay of Juan Griego on the Island of Margarita - Venezuela. Place where you can contemplate and photograph beautiful sunsets that you will surely love.

I am traveling through the mountains of the sea, in the municipality of Macaé, in the state of Rio de Janeiro, and yesterday after an intense summer rain, the river became extremely agitated and muddy. Sometimes this happens so fast, it drags inattentive bathers who are refreshing quietly in the waters. This can be very dangerous, eventually provoking fatalities.

This is Fila Maestra, the path that runs along the crest of the Ávila Mountain.

The best thing of this walk are the views: on one side the valley of Caracas city and on the other the central coast and the Caribbean sea.

An Llama crossing the road leading to the funicular to Montserrate, in bogota, Colombia. You know you are in South America when you see Llama crossing the road. The view on top of Montserrate is worth seeing.

I had the chance to spend a few days in the Amazonian jungle in Ecuador. It was not always easy with the heat, the bugs and the rain, but I was lucky to see a few beautiful sunsets.

Good morning Tomas, it is very refreshing for me to see these beautiful photographs. Once again I congratulate you for this wonderful project. Besides the photographs, they are the beautiful places that exist on our Planet Earth. Thank you.

Thank you so much for your kind words. Have a great Sunday.
