@justdentist Tuesday of Antarctica and the world's oceans entry:

Life, Food, Adventure - Water is the elixir of life!

The world oceans feed people, they connect people, they can be peaceful and dangerous at once. Today we can even generate energy by tidal forces or wave energy power plants.
The fishermen look so peaceful during the sunset at the beach in Tarifa, Spain. It's the Atlantic coastline where the image was taken.

There aren't a ton of entries yet for today's Africa theme but the ones that are here are incredible! I'm gonna go a little different and smaller for mine this week. This is the train station in Harare, Zimbabwe. I took the train from Harare to a nature and wildlife conservancy about 2 hours away. It was a great way to enjoy the scenery on the ride. I love the classic feel of this train station so it seemed fitting to edit it in black and white.

That must be quite an experience! Thank you for sharing!

Etosha

This morning in the park of Etosha in Namibia, I was once again the first to wait for the doors to open. Arriving on the point of water, I discover below a lonely lion drinking. I take out the camera hoping it will come out of the water in my direction. I was able to make some portraits as he was heading towards the sun.
Given the scars he showed I think his night was not calm. I loved this meeting.

What an encounter, what a picture! Than you so much for your entry.

I enjoyed my days at Samburu National Reserve because this reserve is a rugged and semi-desert park located in Samburu district in the Rift Valley Province of Kenya. The park neighbors the homes of the Samburu tribe of Kenya, a tribe known for their remote culture, pastoral and nomadic way of life.
This park has retained a naturally serene and quiet feeling. Besides the numerous wildlife found in this game reserve, the park is also a bird haven.

Having photography in blood, even on vacation it is very hard to sleep well in the morning, having in mind new location/new view which can be fixed by your camera
This shot is taken early morning on sunrise at Hurghada, Egypt with long telephoto lens to compress the perspective and the rising sun too look large and beautiful

That is a hell of the image! Thank you so much for sharing.

I've never been deep in "black" Africa. Maybe ... some time I will. North of Africa is similar to some Asian arab countries. This picture is taken in Morocco, Marrakech. From the first view it could be similar even to Turkey, but only later comes the cognition of local individualities. And especially, when you are traveling east or southeast, your begin to feel real Africa.

Thank you for your entry. Stay tuned for the winner announcement coming soon. Tomas

The road to nowhere... one morning early we went out under epic African skies to explore a remote part of the Jonkershoek valley in South Africa. We were treated with awesome scenery and typical Cape vegetation called fynbos.

Must be a great place for a run! Thank you so much for your entry. Tomas

Zanzibar has some of the best beaches. I took this during low tide so I was literally in the middle of the ocean. Their culture and white sand makes me want to keep going back.

Thank you so much for your participation. Stay tuned for the winner announcement. Tomas
