@justdentist European Thursday entry:
Myvatn geothermal fields. The earth is boiling in Iceland. It's so incredible to visit this volcanic island. Heat for free whereever you go. Near Lake Myvatn is a really active geothermal area. You can visit Namafjall with the mud bubble pools, where the image was taken, climb the Viti Crater, take a swim in the natural bath or check out the Dummoborgir Lava Fields. But be aware of the sulphur smell ;)

Right now I'm in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico and this was the view last night in the evening before the sunset. The forecast here was scattered rain and thunderstorms but so far the weather has been beautiful. I'm here for a friend's wedding with a large group of friends, so needless to say everyone is having a great time!
Oh, I love Puerto Vallarta.... some great memories from there..... Like the framing to you image Matt:).... Have fun!
The Rocky Statue - one of the most popular tourist attractions of Philadelphia. Visiting the statue, running up the steps at the Philadelphia Museum of Art and taking a picture at the top, arms-raised in victory is a must on any first visit to the City of Brotherly Love. I took this image in summer of 2010.
Nice picture. Have been in Philly 3 years ago and was totally surprised by this nice city. Came for the Cheesesteak, stayed for the nice city ;)
Thanks! Yeah, Philly is an amazing city. It has a very nice and special atmosphere :)
That must be my most favorite movie of all times!
A gem of Northern Arizona. Mogollon Rim is named for Don Juan Ignacio Flores Mogollon, the Spanish Governor of New Mexico from 1712 to 1715. It was a gorgeous autumn morning.
I would have never guessed that's Arizona..... I suppose it's vast and all I remember is rocky mountains, a lot of heat and cactuses..... Love it! This looks like back home:).....
Thanks a lot. I was surprised too. It is a couple hours north of the Phoenix area, which is where you probably were cause it is hot and there are lots of cactus!
Street in Camaguey, Cuba
In Cuba I encountered some of the most beautiful golden hour light of my entire travels. On the evening that I took this photo, I walked around the streets of Camaguey illuminated in this beautiful warm light and could not stop taking photos.
1/100s; 55mm; f/5.6; ISO 100
I have also posted this photo on my blog.
Incredible!
Taken in one of our many trips to Athabasca falls. We were returning home from another mountain trip and decided to take a scenic detour and return home via Jasper instead of the more efficient route. The rain had just stopped and the clouds started to clear from the miserable conditions higher up in the mountains.
What a great image!
It was a little chilly for sunrise at -14 C (6.8F); it seems winter has arrived in the Canadian Rockies. There is such a short time window to catch Peyto with snow on the ground before the lake freezes over so we were super fortunate to have the chance to experience it like this. The lake was named after Bill Peyto, who was an early trail guide and trapper in the Banff area. It sits at an elevation of 1,860 m (6,100 ft) in the Waputik Range of the Canadian Rockies, Banff National Park. The shot was taken near Bow Summit at 2132m (or 6994ft).
It's a beauty!
TBH, I was waiting for this image to enter my contest. You have made my day!!!
Thanks ;-)
Famous Flatiron Building in Manhatten, New York City.
The building is 91 meters high and was built in 1902. One of the most extraordinary buildings we have seen on our USA roadtrip.
Thank you so much for your submission. Kindly stay tuned for the winner announcement coming later on today. Tomas

Bixby Bridge, Pacific Coast Highway, California
California's Highway 1 is a must-do road trip experience. Stretching almost 700 miles, you probably won't drive all of it. I'd suggest focusing on the Central California Coast segment around Big Sur. You'll be driving right along sheer cliffs with some beautiful beaches and scenes, including this shot of the famous Bixby Bridge on a quiet morning.
OH, I just want to drive that road.... looks incredible....
Beautiful Bryce Canyon
The expansive beauty of Bryce Canyon is staggering and unparalleled.
Bryce Canyon is located in southeastern Utah USA and was turned into a National Monument by presidential proclamation in June of 1923 before becoming a National Park in 1928," because of its unusual scenic beauty scientific interest and importance".
What a stunner once again!
Your pictures are always the best ~ 🧡 ~
You are always bursting with compliment's, thank you!
Only to those who deserve them :))
