Tinghir Ruins, Morocco. Until a few decades ago, houses in Tinghir, a small town in Morocco, were built next to the river. Now that tap water is available and a convenient access to roads and infrastructure has become more important, these mud-brick houses have been abandoned. The ruins located in the green oasis make for some great exploring!

@boilingchill Asian Sunday entry:
Biei - Hokkaido, Japan. One of my favourite places in the world. A quiet morning in the blue pond in Biei. The autumn colours serve as a brilliant warm curtain, a deep contrast to the cyan and turquoise mirrors of the water.

Cliffs at Northern Chile, near the city of Antofagasta. This sandy cliffs in front of the Pacific Ocean are quite impressive, and they form interesting shapes. As it can be seen in the photo this zone is very dry. I am currently visiting this region.

Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut
Definitely of of the main tourists visiting locations in Egypt - Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut. Located on the west bank of the Nile not far from Luxor and close to also famous Valley of Kings. Built for 18 dinasty of pharaoh Hatshepsut and considered to be one of the "incomparable monuments of ancient Egypt".
Truly amazing place to visit when you see all those mountains and "hand made" piece of art made from the stones and in the stones...
Enjoy the scenery :)

The Abu al-Abbas al-Mursi Mosque is the most historic mosque in Alexandria, Egypt. Most of its construction took place in 1775 over the tomb of a Spanish scholar and saint, Abu El Abbas El Mursi. During the following centuries, it was periodically restored by rulers who built themselves tombs next to the saint.

I finally looked through my old ˋvintage´ photographic albums in search for images from other continents for some nice change...! ~ What I own may be a far cry from professional impressions but better than nothing at all I suppose :)
This picture here has been taken in Tunisia a lifetime of almost twenty years ago...! Yet since I have a quite extraordinary vivid memory it only seems one heartbeat away just likewise...! I hope to ˋsmell´ palms ships & of course the ocean once again in the not too far away palpable future ~ ✨~ !

Tinghir Oasis, Morocco
Surrounded by desert, Tinghir is a beautiful place in Morocco framed by lush green gardens with mud-brick houses and the Atlas Mountains in the background. I had a really hard time editing this photo, so I used it a few months back when I hosted a post-processing contest for @photogames. After picking the winners, I had another shot at post-processing myself and inspired by the winning entries I ended up with this edit.
1/50s; 30mm; f/7.1; ISO 200
I have also posted this photo on my blog.
