Phra Nang is a very beautiful beach with stunning sunsets. There are many restaurants nearby, and the restaurants in the north side have a fabulous view of the entire beach.

 

Another picturesque beach in Ao Nang because of the stunning limestone cliff in the background and the Phra Nang cave on the other end. The water here is much clearer as compared to Railay.. and during low tide, you can even make an effortless swim to reach the cliff across

A cascading masterpiece from the heart of Villa Gregoriana, Tivoli, captured during a serene visit in 2011. This breathtaking waterfall, surrounded by lush greenery and dramatic cliffs, feels like stepping into a painting where nature is the artist.

 

Villa Gregoriana is a place where the power of water meets the stillness of ancient landscapes, creating a harmony that’s as timeless as it is beautiful. Standing here, you can almost hear the whispers of history blending with the roar of the falls.

Adventures in Tup Mor, islands Krabi, Thailand

 

This experience is led by a traditional Thai longtail boat, offering an authentic and scenic way to explore the beauty of Krabi’s islands — a true cultural touch that connects you to the local way of life.

 

Thale Waek or the Separated Sea is one of Krabi’s natural phenomenons and a major tourist attraction. Here, three captivating islands are bound together by a single sand bank, like a secret passage unveiled only during low tide. It's a sight to behold, and a rare opportunity to literally walk between islands! Kick back, take a dip, or snap some memorable shots. This extraordinary spot is all about creating unforgettable memories.

Tup Island (also known as Koh Tup or Tub Island) is a small, picturesque island located off the coast of Ao Nang in Krabi Province, Thailand. It is renowned for its unique natural feature—a sandbar that emerges at low tide, connecting Tup Island to the neighboring Koh Mor (Mor Island) and Koh Gai (Chicken Island). This phenomenon, known as "Talay Waek" or "Separated Sea," allows visitors to walk between the islands across shallow turquoise waters .

 

Walking the Sandbar: At low tide, visitors can walk along the sandbar connecting Tup Island to Koh Mor and Chicken Island, enjoying the unique "Separated Sea" experience

A serene view of the Amazon River shoreline in Alter do Chão, near Santarém, Brazil. The dramatic sky, reflected light on the water, and a quiet boat resting by the sandy beach capture the peaceful essence of this remote natural paradise in the heart of the Amazon.

That's where the magic happens.

Close to the village of Arsha in the Kazbegi region lies the Arsha Waterfall, about five kilometers from Stepantsminda Kazbegi. The hike to the waterfall is considered easy and typically takes three to four hours. The trail is unpaved but well-trodden, surrounded by lush meadows, and offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains. The waterfall is one of the lesser-known natural attractions in the area, contributing to its untouched and serene atmosphere. A bit further along is the Toti Waterfall, accessible via a steep trail that passes above the Arsha Waterfall. This waterfall offers spectacular panoramic views and is an ideal spot for a picnic. Visitors can enjoy the tranquility, the breathtaking nature, and even take a refreshing dip in the crystal-clear water. For adventure seekers, it's possible to continue the hike to the nearby Gergeti Glacier, making the journey a full-day excursion.

 

The journey to the waterfall is a true challenge, yet also a breathtaking experience. The trail winds through rugged, arid terrain with steep inclines and loose rocks. Hikers must be well-prepared, as certain sections can be demanding and exhausting. However, the reward upon arrival is well worth it: a refreshing breeze from the waterfall and a stunning panoramic view. The waterfall in the foreground contrasts strikingly with the dry surroundings, creating a spectacular natural destination. The steep slopes and untouched wilderness highlight both the challenge and the extraordinary beauty of this remote location.

 

Nabij het dorp Arsha in de Kazbek regio, ligt de Arsha-waterval, op ongeveer vijf kilometer van Stepantsminda Kazbegi. De wandeling naar de waterval wordt als eenvoudig beschouwd en duurt doorgaans drie tot vier uur. Het pad is ongebaand maar goed begaanbaar, omringd door weelderige weiden en biedt prachtige uitzichten op de omliggende bergen. De waterval is één van de minder bekende natuurlijke attracties in het gebied, wat bijdraagt aan de ongerepte en serene sfeer. De waterval op de achtergrond contrasteert met het dorre terrein en vormt een prachtig natuurlijk doel. Nog iets verder ligt de Toti-waterval, bereikbaar via een steil pad dat bovenlangs de Arsha-waterval loopt. Deze waterval biedt spectaculaire panoramische uitzichten en is een ideale plek voor een picknick. Bezoekers kunnen hier genieten van de rust, de natuur en zelfs een verfrissende duik nemen in het heldere water. Voor avonturiers is het mogelijk om verder te trekken naar de nabijgelegen Gergeti-gletsjer, wat de wandeling tot een dagvullende activiteit maakt.

A breathtaking aerial perspective of Namibia’s contrasting landscapes, where lush green vegetation thrives along a winding dry riverbed, set against the dramatic red sand dunes and rugged rock formations of the desert.

That's the place. My "post pandemic" newest location. This is a composition of 5 shots, honestly I didn't think it would came out that well. The print is good too.

Nabij het dorp Arsha in de Kazbegi-regio ligt de Arsha-waterval, op ongeveer vijf kilometer van Stepantsminda Kazbegi. De wandeling naar de waterval wordt als eenvoudig beschouwd en duurt doorgaans drie tot vier uur. Het pad is ongebaand maar goed begaanbaar, omringd door weelderige weiden en biedt prachtige uitzichten op de omliggende bergen. Toch blijft de tocht een ware uitdaging, maar tegelijkertijd een prachtige ervaring. Het landschap verandert geleidelijk van glooiende weiden naar ruigere, drogere grond met steile hellingen en losse stenen. Wandelaars moeten goed voorbereid zijn, want sommige delen van de route kunnen veeleisend en vermoeiend zijn. Maar eenmaal aangekomen, wacht de beloning: een verkoelende bries van de waterval en een adembenemend uitzicht. Op de foto is te zien hoe Kanitha, na een avontuurlijke klim, aankomt bij de Arsha-waterval, gelegen in het ruige, bergachtige landschap van Kazbegi. De waterval op de voorgrond vormt een sterk contrast met het dorre terrein, wat bijdraagt aan de ongerepte en serene sfeer. De steile hellingen en ongerepte wildernis onderstrepen zowel de uitdaging als de ongekende schoonheid van deze afgelegen plek. Nog iets verder ligt de Toti-waterval, bereikbaar via een steil pad dat bovenlangs de Arsha-waterval loopt. Deze waterval biedt spectaculaire panoramische uitzichten en is een ideale plek voor een picknick. Bezoekers kunnen hier genieten van de rust, de natuur en zelfs een verfrissende douche nemen in het heldere water. Voor de echte avonturiers is het mogelijk om verder te trekken naar de nabijgelegen Gergeti-gletsjer, wat de wandeling tot een dagvullende activiteit maakt.

This striking rock formation along the coast of Tenerife showcases the power of wind and water over millennia. The island’s volcanic origins have given rise to unique geological features, sculpted by nature into surreal, almost otherworldly shapes. A breathtaking example of the Canary Islands' dramatic coastal beauty.

Only one of the many beautiful moments of an unforgettable day

I spent with Desideria, Rui and his wife Dora in Sintra...

On the way to Haifoss, there is a hidden valley named Gjáin in the near of the historic farm Stöng.

A breathtaking view of towering sand dunes glowing under the golden light, contrasting with the resilient trees that stand tall against the desert’s harsh conditions. This stunning scene captures the harmony of survival and the vast, ever-changing beauty of the desert landscape

Continuing my "post pandemic" new locations. Love this place. The big waterfall has a smaller one on top, just walking in the woods up the flow.

This hidden gem, only accessible by a hike, offers visitors a serene experience as sunlight illuminates the historic site nestled deep within the cave. The contrast between the golden glow and verdant nature creates an ethereal atmosphere, making it a photographer’s dream.

A breathtaking view of Mount Teide, emerging from a sea of clouds as sunlight illuminates the rugged volcanic terrain. This awe-inspiring landscape captures the raw power and beauty of Tenerife’s highest peak, a symbol of Earth’s untamed forces.

Immersed in the enchanting aura of this pagoda, where dreams meet reality. 🌅⛩️

Another great discovery. Not a big flow-wise waterfall right now, but it's actually very high, the walls around it are 50 meters high.

And I love how it's located inside a cave.
