Middle East - GCC - Qatar - Bir Zekreet Desert Landscape - Spectacular rocky limestone cliffs & formations such as desert mushroom during late afternoon warm light with lovely horizontal clouds
Qatar might not be blessed with the most dramatic and spectacular landscape (besides those enormous natural resources that made Qatar one of the richest countries in the world.) therefore finding something unique is not so easy. Area of Zekreet provides some lovely desert formation created by the sea in ancient times.
This wonderful place is also featured in Night Sky around the World Time-Lapse Video among many other interesting and unique locations around the world.

"Guardian of tides and dreams, the Moon watches over wandering souls. Since the dawn of time, it has inspired myths and beliefs—ever-changing goddess, guide of sorcerers, mirror of sensitive hearts. Some see it as a gateway to the unknown, others as a silent witness to our deepest secrets. What story will it whisper to your heart tonight?"
"Gardienne des marées et des songes, la Lune veille sur les âmes errantes. Depuis la nuit des temps, elle inspire mythes et croyances : déesse changeante, guide des sorciers, miroir des âmes sensibles. Certains y voient un portail vers l’inconnu, d’autres un témoin silencieux de nos secrets les plus enfouis. Quelle histoire murmurera-t-elle à ton cœur ce soir ?"
Observing this ring-tailed lemur in a quiet moment of rest, I was struck by the profound intelligence and contemplative quality in its gaze. There's something deeply moving about the way lemurs observe their world - those bright, expressive eyes seem to hold ancient wisdom from the forests of Madagascar.
I chose dramatic black and white lighting to emphasize the sculptural beauty of this remarkable primate and to create an intimate connection with the viewer. The low-key approach strips away distractions, focusing entirely on the character and emotion visible in those penetrating eyes and gentle expression.
What captivated me was the very human-like quality of this moment - the way this lemur seemed lost in thought, gazing into the distance with what appeared to be quiet reflection. These critically endangered primates carry such dignity and grace, reminding us of our shared evolutionary heritage and our responsibility to protect their fragile world.
My intention was to create more than just a wildlife photograph, but rather a portrait that reveals the individual personality and emotional depth of this remarkable creature, hoping to inspire greater appreciation for these extraordinary animals and their precarious future.

Una vista dramática de la Iglesia de San José (Nuestra Señora de Muslera) en El Astillero, Cantabria.
Para esta imagen, he buscado una interpretación pictórica de la escena, separando los planos mediante luz y color. La edición se ha centrado en potenciar la tridimensionalidad de la iglesia con una luz cálida que contrasta con el cielo encapotado y los tonos fríos de la ría.
A dramatic view of the Church of San José (Nuestra Señora de Muslera) in El Astillero, Cantabria, Spain.
For this image, I aimed for a painterly interpretation, separating the layers through light and color. The editing focuses on enhancing the three-dimensionality of the church with warm light contrasting against the overcast sky and the cool tones of the river estuary.

On a chilled December morning the quiet peace of Frobisher Bay is torn apart in the thunderous roar of a missile launch. Rocket light burns bright against the cool pastel colours of an Arctic winter. For weeks, the crew of the surfaced Ohio-class submarine had navigated the unforgiving, ice-choked waters of the northern frontier—a silent ghost patrolling the edge of the world. This morning, as the sun barely scraped the horizon in a wash of pale amber and rose, the quiet ended.
Part of a high-stakes naval exercise in Arctic defense preparedness, the launch was a flawless demonstration of strategic readiness. With a concussive boom that rippled across the frozen expanse, the hull shuddered as a Trident missile erupted from its silo. It punched through the freezing sea spray, riding a pillar of blinding fire and churning white exhaust into the sub-zero air. For a fleeting moment, the stark, snow-dusted islands and jagged mountains were illuminated by the artificial sun of the rocket’s wake, casting long, dramatic shadows over the ice. As the missile vanished into the upper atmosphere, leaving only a drifting plume of smoke against the dawn sky, the Arctic reclaimed its silence—but the message of vigilance had been clearly written across the horizon.
Descending from Sørbøfjellet, the mountain landscape opens beneath a restless sky. A narrow trail of stone winds through the rough terrain, surrounded by scattered rocks, low vegetation and distant water, while enormous clouds seem to occupy almost as much of the world as the land itself.
Rendered in monochrome, colour gives way to shape, texture and light. The stones become brighter, the valleys deeper and the clouds heavier, reducing the landscape to shades of black, white and grey. It is a quiet reminder that in the mountains, simplicity can sometimes reveal more than colour.
Fun fact: Black-and-white landscape photography often makes atmospheric elements such as clouds, haze and changing light more prominent because the eye is no longer distracted by differences in colour.

This photo was taken early morning in the Lage Vuursche Forest on the way from Hilversum to Soestduinen. Lage Vuursche is a village in the Dutch province of Utrecht. It is a part of the municipality of Baarn, and lies about 5 km west of Soest, in the middle of the forest. Drakestein, the former residence of Queen Beatrix, is situated just east of the village. An oasis of rest directly next to the big city life.

this moment caught in london’s brutalist heart balances solitude and structure — a man framed by the coiled ribs of raw concrete, held in a diagonal beam of afternoon light. the silence of the architecture speaks louder than the subject, as if the building itself paused to breathe. shadow and geometry entwine with human stillness.

Middle East - Iran - Isfahan Province - Abyaneh - Abianeh - One of the oldest villages in Iran with ancient houses built from peculiar reddish hue mud
Photo of Karkas mountains taken from hill next to Abyaneh village. Karkas mountain chain or Karkas (Persian رشته كوه كركس Reshteh kuh-e Karkas) is located in Central Iran. It ranges from Kashan to Ardestan over more than 100 km and is mainly composed of igneous (plutonic and volcanic), pyroclastic and somewhat sedimentary Tertiary rocks. In the central part, this mountain chain consists of a Precambrian-Paleozoic basement. The highest peak of the Karkas Mountains is 3895m which is close to Natanz.

the narrow passage felt colder, the walls pale and lifeless, adorned only with the hum of air conditioners clinging to their corners. the late afternoon light slashed through the scene, casting long, deliberate shadows down the damp, uneven stairs. she ran up, focused, her steps quick and sure. her shadow, larger than life, raced ahead, mimicking her movement in a quiet duet with the walls. the puddles below reflected faint glimmers of the world above, while the textures of the city whispered stories of wear and resilience. there was no sound but her rhythm, no moment but this one—just light, shadow, and the climb.

Khongor Sand Dunes are the largest and most spectacular sand dunes in Mongolia. Also known as the ‘singing dunes’, they are up to 800 m high, 20 km wide and about 100 km long. Top of the dunes can be climbed and the views of the desert from the top are indescribable.
I was wondering around and enjoying the majestic views of dunes when my eyes spotted this beautiful play of shadow and light. It is slightly different desert photo than we are used to but I am very happy with the artistic results it creates, even I've originally went there for very typical sunrise desert photos.

It is being said that a picture is worth a thousand words and it is very true statement, however what if you put thousands of pictures together ? Here are two videos that I put together from several weeks in Iceland, those sleepless nights spent in freezing temperatures in unique Icelandic landscape were surely worth it.
Timelapse movies had become my new way of capturing my travels besides regular photography.
Check out these Icelandic timelapse videos :
► NORTHERN LIGHTS OVER JÖKULSÁRLÓN - THE GLACIER LAGOON, ICELAND
or
► NORTHERN LIGHTS - AURORA BOREALIS OVER WESTERN ICELAND
I had the incredible luck to experience once in a life time Northern lights show created by huge Solar storm which brought unseen colors ranging from the usual green, yellow to red, purple or even blue, to the sky all over Nordic countries and even all the way to the south of UK. Add several other lucky nights with smaller or large Aurora Borealis appearance in unique landscape of Iceland and the result is relatively lot of footage for my first ever time-lapse video.
Europe - Iceland - South Iceland - Vík í Mýrdal during Northern lights, also known as Aurora Borealis produced by solar wind particles guided by Earth's field lines to the top of the atmosphere

This photo was taken in Beyal Camp which is a wonderful place surrounded with beautiful thick Pine forest, spellbinding views of Raikot Glacier and Nanga Parbat.
The mountain in the picture is Nanga parbat (also known as Nangaparbat Peak or Diamir) is the 9th highest mountain on Earth and the 2nd highest in Pakistan. Nanga Parbat has tremendous vertical relief over local terrain in all directions. To the south, Nanga Parbat boasts what is often referred to as the highest mountain face in the world: the Rupal Face rises an incredible 4,600 m (15,000 feet) above its base. To the north, the complex, somewhat more gently sloped Rakhiot Flank rises 7,000 m (22,966 feet) from the Indus River valley to the summit in just 27 km, one of the 10 greatest elevation gains in so short a distance on Earth. Nanga Parbat is the fastest growing mountain on Earth and it is still growing about 7mm a year (but dont ask me how they measure it!)
No digital manipulation was done here. The moon is where it really was.

in the silence of a deserted underground passage, a lone figure walks between harsh white walls and glowing veins of red light. the wet floor mirrors the tension above, as if the ground itself remembers each step. it feels like a fragment from a forgotten noir film, where the city breathes in blue and crimson.

Europe - UK - United Kingdom - England - North West England - Cumbria - Lakes - Lake District National Park - Crummock Water - Lake situated between Buttermere & Loweswater
The Lake District, also known as The Lakes or Lakeland, is a rural area in North West England. A popular holiday destination, it is famous for its lakes and its mountains (or fells), and its associations with the early 19th century poetry and writings of William Wordsworth and the Lake Poets.
Lake District is by far my favorite destination in England. It is very magical place that has such a great potential for landscape photography. However as it is always with landscape photography, you need to be lucky for the weather (especially in UK) and the light. When these two are right Lake District offers great possibilities.

Qatar is a small (11,000 sqkm) but indubitably important Persian Gulf nation; aside from oil, more natural gas reserves are found here than anywhere except Iran and Russia. It is nearly totally surrounded by the turquoise waters of the Arabian Gulf. The country is flat with some rocky outcrops up to 130 feet (40 m) high, with the desert landscape ranging from rocky shrub-land to beautiful sand dunes, and some bleak salt flats in the centre of the country.
On my way from Nepal I've decided to have half a day stop over there too. Rented a car and went directly to desert to be rewarded with some stunning desert shots which I didn’t hope for. This one was taken just before sunset. The wind was blowing strong and dust was flying in the wind with wonderful evening light. I particularly love this shot for its timeless feel.
