This great valley boasts sandstone masterpieces that tower at heights of 400 to 1,000 feet. framed by scenic clouds casting shadows that graciously roam the desert floor. The angle of the sun accents these graceful formations, providing scenery that is simply spellbinding.

Honopū Valley is located along the northwest shore of Kauai on the Na Pali coast. It is isolated and not easily accessible except by water. Best POV are from the air, as in this shot.

a few days after I had perfect conditionsI was looking for the darker sky but the clouds had other plans. The South view "right"with Saturn and the core of the Milky Way and the North view "left" still in twilight. The centre light pollution is Calgary due east. Antares in Scorpio is on the peak and Saturn is directly above

The patterns of the rocks formed by erosion look like curtains hanging on the cliff to the valley deep down. Amazing beauty by nature.

On Tuesday of this week I once again couldn't get out of the Wittlich valley not far from home to capture a few morning moods with the camera.

I wish you a nice weekend, the sun is shining and it should stay that way until Monday.

Thank you for comments and favorites, they are very much appreciated.

An image taken at New Year. I'd trudged around in the rain for a couple of hours and was about the leave when the clouds cleared just before sunset. Not the sharpest of images; my hands were frozen, the aperture was too large and shutter speed too low.

I really liked how the tree on the right (out of frame) appeared to be holding hands with its partner!

Kangaroo Valley Road (NSW, Australia) parts of which are wrapped by a thick lush forest occasionally lets in some light. On one misty afternoon I found myself standing in the middle of the road capturing the ghostly light that filled this breathtaking scene.

One of the best hikes ever.

Newlands Valley, Cumbria. (2238)

The Lauterbrunnen valley is one of the deepest in the Alps, comparing the height difference of the adjacent mountains and the valley floor. In some places the cliff walls are 1000 m high. Streams flowing down the mountains, at the edge of the rocky valley walls, form high waterfalls. The most famous of these are the Staubbach Falls (visible on the right) and the Trummelbach Falls. The 297 m high Staubbach Falls is the tallest free-fall waterfall in Switzerland.

Dolina Lauterbrunnen jest jedną z najgłębszych w Alpach, porównując różnicę wysokości przyległych gór i dno doliny. W niektórych miejscach ściany klifu mają wysokość sięgającą 1000 m. Strumienie spływające z gór, na skraju skalistych ścian doliny, tworzą wysokie wodospady. Najbardziej znanym z nich jest wodospad Staubbach (widoczny po prawej) oraz wodospad Trummelbach . Wodospad Staubbach o wysokości 297 m jest najwyższym wodospadem swobodnie spadającym w Szwajcarii.
