The Elan valley dams and reservoirs near the town of Rhayader in the hills of Wales were built around 100 years ago and serve water to the city of Birmingham 100 miles to the north of the dams. They are often at low water level in the summertime and most of the year, but occasionally flow over the top of the dams as in this picture.
The magnificent 16 km long Brandnertal (Brandner Valley) in Austria’s westernmost province of Vorarlberg at the foot of the Schesaplana, the highest peak (2965 m) in the Rätikon. The Rätikon is a mountain range of the Central Eastern Alps located at the border between Austria (Vorarlberg), Liechtenstein and Switzerland (Graubünden). The Brandnertal starts near the Alpine city of Bludenz. Mountains, glaciers, forests, mountain lakes and small rivers characterise the landscape.
Het Brandnertal is een prachtig16 km lang dal in de Oostenrijkse deelstaat Vorarlberg.
Het Brandnertal strekt zich in zuidelijke richting uit vanaf de alpine stad Bludenz naar de Lünersee, gelegen voor de Schesaplana, de hoogste berg (2965 m) in de Rätikon. De Rätikon is een bergmassief in de centraal-oostelijke Alpen op de grens tussen het Oostenrijkse Vorarlberg, Liechtenstein en het Zwitserse Graubünden. De rivier de Alvier stroomt door het dal.
Bergen, gletsjers, bossen, bergmeren en kleine rivieren kenmerken het landschap.

A tour of Cathedral Valley in the Capitol Reef National Park gives so many interesting views, like this geological "stack", as seen on April 27, 2023.
8 shot pano of the Glyderau and Ogwen Valley taken coming down from Foel Goch with the low Winter sun catching the last of the cloud from the day's inversion.
This is the view from an exhausting daytrip up to the famous 'Ice Lake' near Braga. The mountains in the background are part of the annapurna range. Had a pretty bad headache from the heigth, but this photo was worth it.
Monument Valley is a region of the Colorado Plateau characterized by a cluster of sandstone buttes, with the largest reaching 1,000 ft (300 m) above the valley floor. The most famous butte formations are located in northeastern Arizona along the Utah–Arizona state line. The valley is considered sacred by the Navajo Nation, the Native American people within whose reservation it lies.
The Briol Main House is located in the Isarco Valley in Barbiano - Tre Chiese at 1'310 m above sea level. A jump into an ice-cold pool is not for everyone, but it certainly becomes a passion for those, who are in the search of such an unspoilt piece of earth. The building was planned by the artist Hubert Lanzinger in 1928 and it is one of the very rare testimonies of the Bauhaus building style in the Alps. Created from stone and wood with a flat roof. Columns, immense windows for a house in the middle of the mountains without heating and with Spartan furnishing.
Methow Valley is located in the state of Washington near the city of Wintrop. The North Cascade Loop Highway (20) runs through the valley. The lighting from the sun filtering through the patchy clouds created a patchwork of sun breaks which caught my eye.
Starting at Stockyard Campsite near the entrance to the Wilsons Promontory National Marine Park, follow the signposts to the northern flank of Big Drift, an extensive series of inland sand dunes. On a clear day, Big Drift offers stunning views across to Corner Inlet, Shallow Inlet, and Cape Liptrap.
This is the part of Kokra valley, just before the homonymous village centre - so, before the river gets out of mountains.
The Dabaklamm Gorge and the Dorfer Valley can be reached from Burg, a district of Kals am Grossglockner. For a long time the Dorfer Valley was comprised in the project of a huge artificial lake, which would have inundated the entire valley. When the project failed, two charming excursion destinations remained: the Dorfer Valley which is famous for the mountain huts and agriculture, as well as the wild romantic Dabaklamm Gorge at the valley entrance.
This is one from the archives of travelling through the west of America in 2012. It was a great experience to see Monument Valley!
Hula is located in Northern Israel between the Golan Heights and Nezer Hill. There's plenty of water there and this is why some 500 million birds stop at Hula every year for a short break on their long way from Europe to Africa and back.
Today I decided to hike from Stonethwaite village down into the valley and then make a right hand turn onto Langstrath Beck. Reason being, I know there is a small waterfall which cascades down several small plateaus. This area of the Lakes is new to me and there aren’t too many images of this waterfall on Flickr, so it gives it more of an appeal.
Upon arrival the Lone tree which sits at the top of the waterfall has lost its Autumn leaves but the fells are still glowing with rich Autumn colours.
I was hoping for a break in the clouds but unfortunatley the weather didn't get any better with low cloud and drizzle present and on the horizon.
So I wanted to find a good composition which does the fall and the beautiful magestic surroundings justice !
