This is landscape photo from Torres del Paine, South America. Ohhh I really like nature and that destination offers plenty of it. So many lakes, mountains, waterfalls, so many different colours. It is relaxing and I love watching and sharing photos from this trip.

@manoldonchev European Thursday entry:
Barcelona, Plaza Espana (Spain Square). Shot from the Arena Mall's last floor's level terrace where an elevator could take you if you have the patience to queue for it. Or the escalators, floor by floor, through the interior of the building itself. On the horizon — Montjuik Hill with the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya (Catalonia Gallery) and the Olympic Stadium (only the monument visible between the two towers on the further end of the square...which is not square but round ;)

Situated in the middle of the city, the Simon Bolivar Park occupies a total area of approximately 400 hectares, which means it is actually bigger than the famous Central Park in New York City (with 341 hectares). Because of the similar size and central position in the city, the Simon Bolivar Park is often compared to its iconic American counterpart and is sometimes even dubbed the "Central Park of Bogota".
When I looked at this picture, the word that came to my mind was peace, the peace that is felt after the work done, is what these fishermen inspired me returning from their fishing day, on a beautiful afternoon that compensates for the fatigue of having left early in the morning to procure the food that nature delivers to full hands. I took this photo from Playa Mansa, in the town of Lecherias, Venezuela.
In nature there is always a pleasant place to enjoy and photograph, watching the sun hide on the horizon puts me to reflect on the majesty of creation. Only a superior mind can do something so perfect.
Visiting my uncle and in Argentina a few years back really showed me how the western part of the world is just so much more modern but yet i enjoyed the old school buildings and the people not been rich in anyway where still very happy and content in their way of living and in what they had truly a nice place.
View from Isla Incahuasi, Bolivia
Surrounded by the Salar de Uyuni salt lake, the view from the "cactus island" Incahuasi is impressive. The island is home to a large population of huge cactuses that make humans seem tiny when standing next to them!

I have also posted this photo on my blog.
This photo shows a view of Bogotá from the hill of Monserrate. You can see Bogotá to the right of the image. Monserrate is a center of peregrination and at the summit of the hill there is a Basilica (not shown in the photo). This image was done by stitching 5 photos.
Close to the border of Chili, South of the Uyuni Salar, the Laguna Colorada is the perfect home for thousand of Andean Flamingos. The laguna is a shallow salt lake within the Eduardo Avaroa Andean Fauna National Reserve. The water red coloration is due to red sediments and pigments of certain types of algae living there. The tones of the water range from shades of brown to intense reds depending of the weather and the time of day.
