.The Blue Grotto in Malta is possibly the most scenic spot on the island. It blends natural caves with the bluest of blue water and can be experienced from a distance as well as up close.
Location: Kings Domain, near the Royal Botanical Gardens This feature, funded by public subscription, encompasses stonewalls and pathways in a leafy glade and fernery. It provides a tranquil setting within the Kings Domain. Water cascades through a series of features into a cement grotto, then flows into a series of circular pools. When the water feature is running, bridges and pathways provide meandering walkways around the pools.
The less visited Southeast part of Malta is home to some of the islands’ most extraordinary sites, which should definitely make it onto the ‘must-see’ list of any foreign visitor. One of these locations is none other than the magnificent Blue Grotto.
This popular site attracts over 100,000 visitors per year, with tourists flocking here to see the amazing grotto via local boat trips. It’s also an extremely popular diving and snorkelling spot, with very clear, clean and deep waters.
Rose Grotto is a creative version of a macro photograph of a rose. It was made both in Photoshop and in Ultra Fractal 6, with the waves being made with a mathematical formula called 'Complete Lake'
One of the most interesting buildings in Kuskovo - Grotto 1755-1761 gg. built. Grotto was created under the leadership F.Argunova. Stone baroque pavilion lavishly decorated with sculpture, lion masks over the windows. Grotto wall decorated with colored glass and calcareous tufa. The architects had to impersonate Grotto water and stone elements. It consists of a central hall under the pink and green marble, and the northern and southern offices in cold and warm color schemes, respectively. Interior decoration was a complex and lengthy process. About 10 years, with interruptions was engaged "groticheskih affairs" German master Johann Vogt.
The walls and ceiling are richly decorated rooms sinks, travertine, glass, mirrors and pieces of plaster moldings.

Yes, I am back to waterfalls. This is one of my favorite falls in the Smokies, it is on the Trillium Gap Trail that leads to Mt. Leconte. Below is one of the Black Bears we saw on the trail to tho summit.
These grottoes are on a peninsula outside of the town, where coincidentally, my hotel was located. I had no idea this geological marvel was just down my street next to the lighthouse.
The scene at Grotto Falls at Great Smoky Mountains National Park. It got really busy at the falls by the time we decided to try shooting it, with the main attraction being having your photo taken under the falls. It took a small miracle to get a shot with no people in the frame!

The Grotto is a cave with a natural pool of clear blue water and Indian Head Cove is a scenic inlet located next to the Grotto. This is an excellent place to hike. This time of year, there are not many people around the trails.

Have a lovely day, everyone...
Waterfall Wednesday - Grotto Falls is one of my favorite waterfalls in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. It is a relatively easy hike to get to and you can also find a bunch of salamanders on the way up.
Trillium Gap trail passes behind Grotto falls on its way to the summit of Mt. LeConte. This image was taken from behind the falls.
The Rosh HaNikra grottoes are cavernous tunnels formed by sea action on the soft chalk rock. The total length is some 200 meters. They branch off in various directions with some interconnecting segments.

Thank you for your visit!
What was once a window with a view is now a grotto that sees to the needs of the street. If you have something leave it, if you need something take it.
Grotto Geyser erupting along the Upper Geyser Basin in Yellowstone National Park. Really cool! I watched this thing spew out water and steam for about 30 minutes. The rock formation on the right almost looks like a man with a moustache and hat resting with his head propped up, facing to the left. Or maybe it was those geyser fumes that has me imagining things!

The grotto at Painshill Park was built between 1760 and 1769 and is decorated with naturalistic crystals and limestone formations. It fell into disrepair in the 1940s and was finally restored between 2012 and 2013 using paintings from 1770 as a guide
We attempted to travel through Grotto Canyon. Helpful people installed a ladder at the first major drop. Unfortunately, they did not put a ladder at the next drop, so we didn't get very far.
Not really a grotto, but, in cold winter, the sylvan feel of Crooked Creek and its surroundings exuded Arcadian seclusion. We tarried awhile.

Grotto Geyser est un geyser de type « fontaine » situé dans le Upper Geyser Basin dans le parc national de Yellowstone aux États-Unis.
Grotto est également le nom porté par le groupe de geysers qui comprend Grotto Fountain Geyser, South Grotto Fountain Geyser, Indicator Spring, Spa Geyser et Rocket Geyser.
Grotto entre en éruption environ toutes les 8 heures. L'intervalle entre les éruptions est plus long après une éruption plus longue. Les éruptions font environ 3,0 m de haut et peuvent durer entre 1 heure et plus de 10 heures, bien qu'il y ait déjà eu des éruptions qui ont duré plus de 26 heures.
Ses éruptions sont généralement précédées d'une éruption de Grotto Fountain Geyser. Après une courte éruption, qui dure entre 1 et 2 heures, Rocket a généralement une éruption majeure. Environ les trois quarts des éruptions de Grotto sont courtes. Grotto et Rocket entrent ensemble en éruption. Quand les éruptions de Grotto sont longues, c'est-à-dire entre 6 et 12 heures, c'est Spa au lieu de Rocket qui entre en éruption
