Queenstown, New Zealand. It was a beautiful day and I had the chance to witness this view, it was breathtaking, I love all the colors and mood. Autumn in New Zealand is a paradise for photographers!
This is one of those locations that offers up huge views. It was taken from the road leading to the summit of Mount William in the Grampians National Park. Here the view is to the south-west looking across the Victoria Valley. The horizon is maybe 80 to 100km away. From the top of Mount William, I once saw right through to Buninyong near Ballarat around 120km away.
Mount William is 1167 metres in height, so this position would be around 1000 metres.
This is a stitched panorama section (13700 pixels wide) from the original very wide hi-res shot. Taken using around ten images with a 200mm lens and stitched in Pano-Edit.
Cuilcagh is the highest mountain in both Fermanagh and Cavan. It a long hike up to the summit, but it's worth it. The new boardwalk and steps means we don't get our feet as dirty, but it's no easier on the legs.
The area now known as "Hot Springs National Park" first became United States territory in 1803 as part of the Louisiana Purchase. The Dunbar-Hunter Expedition came here in 1804, sent by President Thomas Jefferson to explore the southern reaches of the recent purchase. Soon a bustling town grew up around the hot springs to provide services for health seekers. The resultant bathing industry led to Hot Springs becoming known as the "American Spa." But, even before becoming a U.S. territory, Hot Springs National Park had a long and colorful history, beginning long before its designation as Hot Springs Reservation in 1832. American Indians came here for thousands of years to quarry novaculite for their tools and weapons. Finally, on April 20, 1832, President Andrew Jackson signed legislation to set aside "...four sections of land including said (hot) springs, reserved for the future disposal of the United States (which) shall not be entered, located, or appropriated, for any other purpose whatsoever." This makes Hot Springs National Park the oldest national park among current National Park units, predating Yellowstone National Park by forty years.
West Mountain Drive has entrances on Prospect Avenue and Whittington Avenue. It is a two way road that leads to the Summit Loop where you will find three overlooks. The first overlook affords a good view of the former Army-Navy Hospital (barely seen in this photo in the lower right corner) and the Hot Springs Mountain Tower (seen in the photograph above) that is 216 feet above Hot Springs Mountain and 1,256 feet above Sea level. The second overlook has a historic trail shelter and picnic tables and the summit has a view south to the Trap Mountains and Lake Hamilton. This shelter was built in 1924 making it one of the oldest mountain shelters still in use today at Hot Springs National Park. Addtionaly, at the third overlook, there is access to sunset trail at the summit.

A fantastic view to praia do Cardeiro in Sao Miguel do Gostoso. The beach was empty due to strong winds, that's the reason why no one is enjoying this fantastic views. Mainly these beaches are fantastic for surf and other sports.

I've shot this shot before but with bad conditions. Its alway a little colder on this side of the Golden Gate. I found this spot just a couple of minutes from the Vista Point. Just an awesome view of the houses nestled up into the mountain side.
I’ve elected for a knees eye view of this recently painted SD40-2 with a fresh Kodachrome SDF45 trailing rounding a sharp banked curve on the Santa Fe on the SW side of Matfield Green, Kansas lensed around 2:00 pm on 04-25-1987. One long sentence, nice pair of Santa Fe motive power hauling the tonnage. 1247
Another shot i found yesterday, actually there is still quite a few i never got around to uploading so im going to be uploading them as often as i can as i don't like wasting shots and letting them go to waste on my discdrive. This took a while to do as well as i didn't want to make the editing obvious, i only wish i had taken a change of clothes! I tell you what though, climbing that tree made me feel young again!

The view from Leysin. The Dents du Midi are on the right, and the Mont Blanc Massif is in the center.
The original of this photo turned out very, very bad. This is mixture of several different tone-remappings blended with several touched-up versions of the original, digital velvia, and lots and lots of noise reduction.
