Atalanta Beach - Cape Verde:
In 1968, a transport ship called "Cabo Santa Maria" ran aground on the coast of Boa Esperança, to the north of the island. More than 4 decades later, the ship's wreckage has become one of the island's attractions. Practically in the middle of nowhere, the site offers a striking view of the steel ship, its remains assailed by the constant waves.

This was part of an interesting walk. I had reached the lighthouse and turned back. Mani, Peloponnese, Greece.
It was a lovely clear morning at Cape Pillar. Cape Hauy can be seen in the immediate foreground. Behind is Tatnell's Hill near Waterfall Bay. The distinctive three hills forming the landmass of Southern Maria Island can be seen on the right in the distance.

I had three cape daisies last year but a week of heavy frost killed them off in the winter. A neighbour has one that's thrived for years so I'm not sure what I did wrong. Well, I bought three new ones, and this is my favourite.
In 1444, the Ottoman Empire invaded Bulgaria, burning and raping their way across the country. Girls who were captured by the Ottomans were either kept for the pleasure of the officers or sent to join the Sultan’s harem at Constantinople. When the Ottoman army approached Cape Kaliakra, 40 local girls fled to the end of the headland with the intent of killing themselves. They tied their hair together to be sure that none of them would yield to their fear and jumped together from the 70 metres high cliff. A memorial obelisk known as ‘The Gate of the 40 Maidens’ now stands at the entrance to the cape.
Legend or true story?

This is scenic "Cabo Finisterre" in Galicia, Spain. The Cape is one of the westernmost points in Spain and western Europe. Needless to say that it is also one of the most beautiful coastal regions in Galicia. Perfect location to enjoy "gambas" (shrimp) with a cup of refreshing "Albariño Casero" (local homemade wine).
By the way, for those wondering this a HDR composite of three (3) shots.
Perched on a rugged cliff at our continent's most easterly point lies Cape Spear Lighthouse – the oldest surviving lighthouse in Newfoundland.
The headland closes on the north the gulf of Naples. The harbour and the lake was the major base of the Roman imperial fleet.
Another striking scene observed from the other side of the Cape Meares State Scenic Viewpoint.
A must-see when driving the Three Capes Scenic route, Cape Meares State Scenic Viewpoint is situated on a headland over 200 feet above the ocean. Cape Lookout and Cape Kiwanda are the other two capes on this route.
The cape is named for the 18th century British naval officer, trader and explorer John Meares.
Happy Friday! Enjoy a wonderful weekend!
Cape Cornwall and it's iconic stack, looking out over the Atlantic Ocean and the Irish Sea. As part of its centenary celebrations in 1987, Heinz purchased Cape Cornwall for the nation and presented it to the National Trust to look after. This prevented Cape Cornwall falling into the hands of private developers. Shame the same could not have happened to Land's End.

Taken Addo Elephant National Park, Eastern Cape, South Africa.
Addo Elephant National Park is a diverse wildlife conservation park situated close to Port Elizabeth in South Africa and is one of the country's 20 national parks. It currently ranks third in size after Kruger National Park and the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park. I spent four consecutive days within the park which provided an amazing variety of wildlife.
