Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming

Day 346 of my 366 Project

Looking down the stream running through the main (lower) archaeological site of the monastery of Glendalough (County Wicklow, in eastern Ireland), on a cloudy midday in mid-May.

The Valley of the Two Lakes -- the meaning of the Irish "Gleann dá Loch" -- is nestled on the eastern side of the Wicklow Mountains, located within the Wicklow Mountains National Park / Páirc Náisiúnta Sléibhte Chill Mhantáin. This stream runs beside the monastic site of Glendalough, which was initially founded in the 6th century, by St. Kevin, and is now maintained by the Office of Public Works (Heritage Ireland).

Archaeological evidence supports the understanding that streams, springs, and other bodies of water were of importance in pre-Christian Celtic religion. Walking around Glendalough, it is not difficult to believe that it could have held spiritual significance even before St Kevin's settling there.

Akerselva (Aker River), Oslo

We went to the Ureweras but it was shut! The great walk was closed due to track damage from the snow storm, the camp ground turned us away and the visitor centre wasn't open for 3 days. So we explored a lot of the smaller tracks, streams and trap lines looking for interesting forest to photograph. We came across this scene right near the end of our trip. I was pretty excited! I haven't worked through all the comps yet from this place but will post a couple more probably

Nice place to dip my feet and take a photo

At any time of year, the Japanese garden looks pretty cool.

While hiking along a road there in Yosemite, I could hear this flowing water off in the distance. Headed off into the woods and came upon this glorious scene.

Captured with the CPL filter only here in the low light of the woods.

Taken with an old Nikon D700 and 24-120 mm lens set at 24 mm f10.0 for 0.6 sec.

Walking along the stream in the forest near the village of St. Maddalena in Dolomites :)

The village of St. Maddalena is located at the rear end of the Villnöss valley at an altitude of 1,339 m above sea level in the Trentino-Alto Adige region in northern Italy. This is the place where the most popular photographic subjects are to be found, as the Church of St. Magdalena and the Geisler/Odle massif. The main peak of the massif is Sass Rigais, 3,025 m above sea level. The village is a popular destination for tourists, especially those interested in hiking and winter sports.
