A shot from my archives, which I somehow forgot to post. Here is the Palace Hotel in the so-called 'Old Town Dubai', and as a bonus, the world's tallest tower in the background. Thanks to my flickr buddy arfromqatar who was staying in this hotel and who made that shot possible (as usual we had some issues with the security guard).
This is a digitally blended Vertorama.
This shot is dedicated to A Parisian Woman in KL for her great testimonial. Thanks again V! :-)

The Swiss Alps (German: Schweizer Alpen, French: Alpes suisses, Italian: Alpi svizzere, Romansh: Alps svizras) are the portion of the Alps mountain range that lies within Switzerland. Because of their central position within the entire Alpine range, they are also known as the Central Alps. The highest summit in the Swiss Alps is Monte Rosa (4,634 metres (15,202 ft)) near the Swiss-Italian border. The highest mountain which lies entirely on Swiss territory is the Dom (4,545 metres (14,911 ft)).
We all picture Alps mainly with high, rocky mountains, but at some areas you can find wonderfully green hills and when you are there at the right time with wonderful deep colors.

Meet Toby.
He joined our household today at 8 weeks 2 days old, and I'm completely and totally in love with the little guy.
He is curious, playful, snuggly, and still manages to look solemn and dignified - at least when he wants to.
His introduction with Henry was uneventful, and while they still working out the logistics of Big Dog / Little Dog play, they are both obviously interested in making it work.
Today, Toby learned the beginnings of "Sit" (nailed it!) "Leave It" (chewing on my hand doesn't make it open but NOT chewing on it does and you get the kibble inside) and "Down" (did I mention he did great with "Sit" and "Leave it"?)
I spent most the afternoon focusing on Sit-n-Stare, where Toby gets a piece of his kibble every time I notice him sitting in front of me and staring up and me.
He now sits in front of me and stares up at me (and Hubby) a lot!
Henry also learned this on the first day, and to this day it's his default behavior - what he does when he doesn't know what else to do.
It's a really nice default behavior - much better than jumping at my legs and the cupboard doors, which was our starting point.
Today's photoshoot was a chaotic disaster - but Toby had a fun, got his meal of kibble (a few at a time) and (occasionally) showed hints of the star I'm sure he will someday be.
Many thanks to Toby's (and Henry's and Zachary's and Beau's) wonderful breeder - Aubridge Goldens - who practiced "Hats" with the litter a few weeks ago!
Notes to self:
1. Hungry Puppies make terrible models (stupid me - I knew that!)
2. Big Dogs and Little Dogs (together) makes a challenging situation impossible
3. I need to wrangle Hubby into firing the remote for me for a few days!

WOW, WOW, WOW. I rarely write the word WOW three times unless the scene deserves it and boy did this scene deserve it indeed.
To be honest, the whole of the Dolomite area in Italy is utterly beautiful and staggeringly stunning but standing on the middle path looking over the 8,000ft mountains in the distance, all layering up one after another was spellbinding.
I remember just standing there thinking how amazing the view looked and how I felt compelled to reach for my Canon 5D MK4 camera and Canon 70-200 f2.8 lens, a dynamic duo that always captures what I see so well.
So here is the simple shot comprising several mountains. I hope you all like it.

Dyrhólaey (Door Island) is a 120 m high rock, created during a submarine volcanic eruption approximately 80 thousand years ago. The eruption, which formed Dyrhólaey and the pillars around it (originally parts of it), presumably took place in the same way as other submarine and subglacial eruptions. In the beginning, a major tephra eruption took place and later, when the crater reached the surface of the sea, the lava started to flow and thus ensured its existence. Dyrhólaey is a promontory reaching out into the ocean on the south coast of Iceland. It is the southernmost part of the country.
I knew that there will be Full Moon during my trip to Iceland, however I was not sure how I'll use it in my work. Thanks to my beloved TPE app on my iphone, I realized that Dyrhólaey might be perfect place to capture it... and the Moon could not have been placed any better, especially as this is the only place you can capture this rock from (just few steps to left or right).

I just returned from this year's Namibia workshop - great as always. Even though this was already our 9th or 10th visit, I still consider it a huge privilege to be able to walk around in the incredibly stunning landscapes this amazing country has to offer.
What surprises me every time, is that even though I know most of the locations we visit by heart, and have taken thousands of images there, I still see new compositions that I missed on previous visits. This changes from year to year. Last year for instance, I suddenly saw way more possibilities than the years before, and I still wonder what caused that. One day you're really struggling to get anything decent, the next you see nothing but great shots to be taken all around you.
Anyway, this is one from last year's visit to Namibia's most iconic location: Deadvlei. Shot early morning during pre-glow.

Watching the sun rise or set over the sand dunes of Merzouga may be the most spectacular experience you have on your trip to Morocco. The Erg Chebbi, the name of these sand dunes, is said to have some of the highest dunes in Morocco. Indeed, the dunes and the desert wildlife are impressive.
The dunes of Erg Chebbi is a strikingly strange natural formation. On the top of the flattest area you could imagine, suddenly a long mountain of sand rises. This mountain is surrounded by flat and desolate nature on all sides, and you could end up wondering if it really is real. But so it is, even if its existence is so weird that it has given rise to lengeds and myths among the locals. One legend tells us that the dunes of Erg Chebbi were created by God as a punishment to the locals of nearby Merzouga after they refused to give shelter to a woman and her child during a local festival. A sandstorm came, and buried the village of Merzouga is it was then.
Morocco and especially Sahara desert with its very dark skies is perfect for seeing and also capturing the night sky with the glorious Milky Way. The sky in the desert is wonderfully dark with minimum light pollution, which gives a great sight, which you can also see in the :
â–º MOROCCO'S NIGHT SKY WITH MILKY WAY - Timelapse Video

The sky was excellent for a night photo session in which I should have photographed the Milky Way, so I headed to the Capo Murro Lighthouse.
Once I arrived, I started looking for a location viewed a few days before online. After a while, I found a wonderful arch that rose out in the blue sea.
I photographed the last rays of sun hitting the arch while waiting for the night session.

Iceland Waterfalls are perhaps the country's most recognizable series of attractions. They're everywhere! Its collection of waterfalls rivals any other country in sheer power and raw beauty. The falls range from powerful and wide river-type monsters like Dettifoss, Gullfoss, and Goðafoss to tall and narrow ones like Glymur, Háifoss, and Hengifoss. Moreover, the country sports classic waterfalls such as the rectangular Skógafoss as well as unique waterfalls such as the trapezoidal Dynjandi. And these are just the famous ones! There are countless other waterfalls tumbling by the Ring Road as well as many more that don't even have formal names!
Gullfoss may be Iceland's most popular waterfall. This spectacular two-tiered waterfall (with each tier dropping at right angles to each other) falls a total of 32m while spanning the entire width of the HvÃtá River. The upper tier drops about 11m while the lower tier drops 21m. Mist wafts up from the lower tier due to the quantity of falling water. It's one of the three major attractions on the Golden Circle Tour and Route, which is very doable as a day trip out of ReykjavÃk. It's hard to believe that this waterfall almost disappeared due to the desire for hydroelectricity by various interests. In some fortuitous bit of misfortune (if you're the investor) and lack of funds, attempts were unsuccessful and the falls was eventually sold to the state of Iceland. Despite further interest to utilize the river by the state, it was eventually conserved. A more romantic story depicted the daughter (named SigrÃður Tómasdottir) of the landowner who was about to sell his land (including the falls) threatened to throw herself into the falls if the land was sold. As a result, the father pulled out of the deal and the falls was made a reserve and the rest was history. It's said that this isn't true, but nonetheless there is a memorial at the falls commemorating SigrÃður Tómasdottir.
This is less usual view of the waterfall that I've taken on top "viewing platform". Use of my B+W 3.0ND filter allowed me 32sec during daylight. It turned the waterfall in river of silk, milk like flow. The late afternoon light and interesting sky just finished it nicely.

Europe - UK - United Kingdom - England - North West England - Cumbria - Lakes - Lake District National Park - Ullswater - 2nd largest lake in Lake District, cca 9 miles (14.5 kilometres) long & 0.75 miles (1,200 m) wide with a maximum depth of more than 60 metres (197 ft)
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. The central and most-visited part of the area is contained in the Lake District National Park - one of fourteen National parks in the United Kingdom. It lies entirely within Cumbria, and is one of England's few mountainous regions. All the land in England higher than three thousand feet above sea level lies within the National Park.
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.

Europe - Serbia - Republika Srbija - Dinaric Alps - Mount Zlatibor - Stopica cave - Stopića Pećina - Стопића пећина - Limestone cave with travertine terraces near Sirogojno
The weather was not working in in our favor during this particular part of the trip, so we decided to visit this cave instead as caves should be bad weather resistant. This theory didn't prove just right as when we finally got there through some snowy parts of the road and very slippery walkway we found out that the snow cut off all power to the cave. Luckily the local guide had large torch that we used for light-paining, which is never easy as you never know what result you get. I'm rather pleased with the result considering the circumstances and the visit to the cave was more fun this way after all !

The Roman Forum (Latin: Forum Romanum), sometimes known by its original Latin name, is located between the Palatine hill and the Capitoline hill of the city of Rome. It is the central area around which the ancient Roman civilization developed. Citizens referred to the location as the "Forum Magnum" or just the "Forum". The oldest and most important structures of the ancient city are located in the forum, including its ancient former royal residency the Regia and the surrounding complex of the Vestal virgins.
Those columns belong to the Temple of Saturn (Latin: Templum Saturni or Aedes Saturnus). It is a monument to the agricultural deity Saturn that stands at the western end of the Forum Romanum in Rome. It represents the oldest surviving structure in that area, having been established between 501 and 498 BC.
The original plan for the blue hour shoot was to walk through the Forum Romanum to the Colosseum and take photos there. Unfortunately the walk way through Forum Romanum was closed (it was opened two years ago when I've been there last time) and we would have to rush all the way around to get there in time. I have seen lights pointing at the Temple of Saturn and was hoping for some nice blue hour shot of the lit forum, however another surprise as revealed that the light has lit only on the further church. I was very disappointed at first, but looking at the shot now, I quite like the atmosphere and the result.

The Gefion Fountain (Danish: Gefionspringvandet) is a large fountain on the harbour front in Copenhagen, Denmark. It features a large-scale group of animal figures being driven by the legendary Norse goddess, Gefjun. It is located in Langelinie Park next to Kastellet and is the largest monument in Copenhagen and used as a wishing well.
The fountain depicts the mythical story of the creation of the island of Zealand on which Copenhagen is located. The legend appears in Ragnarsdrápa, a 9th century Skaldic poem recorded in the 13th century Prose Edda, and in Ynglinga saga as recorded in Snorri Sturluson's 13th century Heimskringla.
According to Ynglinga saga, the Swedish king Gylfi promised Gefjun the territory she could plow in a night. She turned her four sons into oxen, and the territory they plowed out of the earth was then thrown into the sea between Sweden and the island of Fyn in Denmark. The hole became a lake called Lögrinn and Leginum (locative). Snorri identifies the lake Löginn, as the lake of Old Sigtuna west of Stockholm, i.e., Lake Mälaren, an identification that he returns to later in the Saga of Olaf the Holy.
