A view of Yosemite Valley from Tunnel View overlook. Bridalveil Fall is in the distance to the right with the cliff face of El Capitan to the left. This is probably my best shot of Tunnel View. The other shots I was trying to do too much with the sunrise. They are nice with the rays of sun coming into the valley but this one has less shadow. --- #YosemiteNationalPark #NPS #TunnelView #California #valley #mountains #montagnes #Gebirge #Tal #vallée #ElCapitan #BridalveilFall #山 #谷 #UNESCO

Zion National Park in Utah. It's a nice park that's entered from the bottom of the canyon instead of the top like Grand Canyon. Beautiful colors with camping, hiking and biking trails. It's a day trip from Las Vegas. #ZionNationalPark #NPS #nature #Natur #hiking #Wandern #randonnée #山 #ハイキング #BikeTrails #Radfahren #Cyclisme #キャニオン #Schlucht

 

This is Craig Pass in Yellowstone National Park. The Craig Pass Bridge fords Isa Lake. It is also the Continental Divide. It's a unique lake and the only natural lake in the world to flow into two oceans. It flows into the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean. One other lake does this but it is a manmade lake. Isa Lake when the snow melts drains in two directions for the spring runoff. #CraigPass #YellowstoneNationalPark #NPS #IsaLake #See #lac #Wyoming #snow #Schnee #neige #雪 #pont #Brücke #橋 #ContinentalDivide #mountain #Berg #montagne #山 #UNESCO

The Lower Yellowstone River Falls in Yellowstone National Park. This is from Lookout Point. People can be seen on the Brink of Lower Yellowstone Falls at the scenic overlook at the top right of the falls. They look tiny but they're there. These falls are higher than Niagara Falls but not as wide. This is close to Canyon Village where they have restaurants and lodging. The walk to Lookout Point is short there are some stairs though. To me this is the highlight of Yellowstone National Park. The Upper and Lower Yellowstone Falls are only a couple miles apart. If you're in good shape you can venture down into the canyon on Uncle Tom's Trail. It's 328 steps down the .4 mile trail and a 500 foot drop. It leads to a viewing platform just below the Upper Yellowstone Falls and gives a beautiful view of the falls from inside the canyon. It was closed for maintenance when I was there. #NPS #YellowstoneNationalPark #LowerYellowstoneFalls #waterfalls #cascades #Wasserfälle #nature #Natur #outdoors #hiking #randonnée #Wandern #滝 

This is Tunnel View entering into Yosemite National Park. This is in the opposite direction of the valley which are the most popular shots. While I have shots of Tunnel View too this side is also pretty. This is with the sun at my back at the Wawona Road Tunnel looking away from Yosemite Park. #YosemiteNationalPark #NPS #Tunnelview #cliffs #valley #WawonaRoad #MercedRiverValley #falaises #WawonaTunnel #Klippen #vallée #Senke #谷 #崖 #UNESCO #landscape #paysage #Landschaft #景色 #hiking #randonnée #Wandern #ハイキング

The Snake River at Oxbow Bend in Grand Teton National Park in September. This was taken next to Colter Bay Village on a day trip from Yellowstone National Park. The two parks are right next to each other. This is about 45 minutes from Grant Village. All the villages in the park are about a 45 minute drive apart. They were stagecoach stops long ago to change horses or spend the night. It may have been as far as they could go in a day at ten miles per hour. #NPS #GrandTetonNationalPark #Wyoming #NationalParkService #mountains #Berge #montagnes #nature #Natur #outdoors #scenic #snowcaps #clouds #OxbowBend #SnakeRiver #SommetsEnneigés #Schneekappen #nuages #Wolken #雲 #山 #川 #Fluss #fleuve #landscape #Landschaft #paysage #景色

A green Praying Mantis. This is a Chinese Mantid or Mantis (Tenodera aridfolia sinensis). It didn't mind posing for me. I think this is a female.

A walk between the North American and Eurasian Tectonic Plates in Iceland. It's also the northern end of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. This is part of the iconic rift valley on The Golden Circle. It's where Iceland's parliament (Althing) started meeting in 930. The light rain had broke just before I got there which was enough to keep the crowds down. Thingvellir (þhingvellir) National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. #Iceland #ThingvellirNationalPark

Mission San José in San Antonio, Texas. It is part of the National Park Service and located on Mission Trail National Park. A UNESCO World Heritage Site founded in 1720. The WPA (Works Progress Administration) restored it in 1930. It's been relocated twice and is the largest mission on the Mission Trail National Park. #NPS #SanJoséMission #MissionTrailNationalPark #SanAntonioMissions #Texas #église #Kirche

A pair of butterflies and bumblebees sharing flowers. This was taken on Bayview Trail in Mason Neck State Park. The butterflies are Eastern Tiger Swallowtails. I think they're females by the blue on the back part of the wings. I don't know the bumblebee identification. There's too many different kinds of them. #MasonNeckStatePark #EasternTigerSwallowtailButterfly #PalilioGlaucus #butterfly #bumblebee #flowers #Blumen #fleurs #insects #昆虫 #Schmetterling #papillon #蝶 #BayviewTrail

An interior shot of the Roman Colosseum. The Senator's seats are shown at the end of the colosseum while the emperor's seat is just to the right of the photo. A large crucifix is directly across from the emperor's seat to remind him God is watching him. The line to get in was about 50 yards long but I had a ROMA Pass and walked right in. It pays for itself and saves time. #Rome #Italy #RomanColosseum #colosseum #old #ancient #architecture

The sun is rising a Yosemite National Park's southern entrance. This is from Tunnel View. A scenic overlook just after exiting the tunnel on Wawona Rd. Bridalveil Fall can be seen off to the left. February is the time of year when the sun hits Bridalveil Fall just right and it looks like it's pouring lava down the mountain. #NPS #YosemiteNationalPark #TunnelView #sunrise #aube #Dämmerung

The Lander Lockhouse and lock 29 of the C&O Canal National Historic Park. The painted white brick house was built in 1836. The towpath on the right is popular for hiking, jogging and biking. It's at the 51 mile mark of the towpath which is 185 miles long from Cumberland MD to Washington D.C. Many bicyclist make this two to three day trip. Usually from the direction of Cumberland because it's predominantly downhill. #NPS #C&OCanalNationalHistoricPark #Lock29 #LandersLockhouse #Chesapeake&OhioCanalNationalHistoricPark #lockhouse

Watching the sunset in Sint Maarten / Saint Martin from Maho Beach's Sunset Bar & Grill. I called the rock "Iguana

rock" but I don't know if it survived the hurricane. The gazebo definitely didn't. The Sonesta Maho Resort where the gazebo is received heavy damage from the huricane. They were in the process of repairing or rebuilding it last I checked. This is a great spot to watch the sunset and the ships heading to sea. Plane watching is a must. #SintMaarten #St.Martin #sunset #MahoBeach #MahoBay #Sonnenuntergang #CoucherDuSoleil #silhouette #orange #Insel #l'île

A street pic on Rue Masséna by Old Town Nice (Vieux Nice), France. Vieux Nice starts the next street over a block away. The Côte d'Azur in Provence is beautiful year round. Nice is a great little beach town summer and winter. It's sits between Monaco and Cannes. There are plenty of medieval hill towns to explore here. It's also about 6 hours via train to Cinque de Terra, Italy. #UNESCO #NiceFrance #France #OldTownNice #RueMasséna #CôteD'Azur
