Sahara Sand Dune Sunset. Walking up this steep dune was pretty exhausting, but at the top I had left all other tourists behind. Watching the sun setting over the Sahara from this spot was one of the highlights of my trip to Morocco earlier this year.

@vinceboisgard Asian Sunday entry:

At the ending of the day, when the sun is setting and the sky shine of warm colours comes the best time to get the board out. Bali is a nice place to do so and I always loved sitting on the beach watching the show!

A group of them have got used to visit the anchorage several times a week and were happy to pose in front of my camera. I'm sure they have heard about @czechglobalhosts and wanted to be posted for the Australian Monday contest. Done !

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Tuesday of Antarctica and World´s Oceans week #62 – winner announcement!

@axeman Tuesday of Antarctica and World´s Oceans entry:

Ice soldiers. The coast of Baltic Seaa t Sventoji, Lithuania. A small city about 40km from Klaipeda. The remaons of old piers looks just stunning after certain periods of cold weather with ice hats on the tops caused by constantly hitting waves. This evening was very calm and got some colors only at the very sunset. A bit of long exposure to "move" the clouds. Enjoy it!

Fairly unusual entry coming from you but still a great capture. Have a great day.

Yes, sometimes I go out of sea !!

Tinghir Ruins, Morocco

Until a few decades ago, houses in Tinghir, a small town in Morocco, were built next to the river. Now that tap water is available and a convenient access to roads and infrastructure has become more important, these mud-brick houses have been abandoned. The ruins located in the green oasis make for some great exploring!

Thank you so much for your submission and continuous support. Have a great day.

Under Hurghada skies


While the most of tourists who coming to Hurghada, Egypt are mostly into spending all the time on the beach or in hotel's bar... still some are coming to catch some winds.
Here is perfect winter day with amazing cloud formations. The pier with boats and a kiter getting some adrenaline while jumping on the waves, not big though.. :)

Enjoy the scenery!

That sure is a nice winter:).... Thank you so much for your entry.

This is what remains of the temple of Sobek and Haroeris of Kom Ombo, south of Egypt. It's a sad that part of the temple has collapsed in the Nile. Let's hope that the rest will still stand in the future.

Yep, let's hope for the best and that all the preservation efforts are in place. Have a great day.
