The sad news of Ethiopian Airlines plane crash has brought my memory back to my solo trip in the country. This photo was shot in Addis Ababa in a late afternoon. A dreamy shade was cast on the enormous overpass, vehicles, pedestrians and the shining wet ground. I couldn’t help catching this great lighting :)

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - Asian Sunday week #78 - winner announcement!

@travelshots Asian Sunday entry:

The "Starlight Bridge" is located at the outskirts of Saigon, in a very quiet, modern quarter that makes you forget the hustle and bustle of the city centre. Once the sun has set, the bridge transforms into an artificial waterfall that is illuminated in bright colours - simply adorable!

@fotogruppemunich Australian Monday entry:

My picture was taken in sydney last winter. It was a great moment during the sunset at the harbor to walk and enjoy the beauty of the city. I was lucky that the sun went down just behind the showboat.

Qurator's Photo Friday #67 - Purple Dream. Sunset at some alien planet out there in the endless Universe. In fact this is winter sunset at Baltic Sea taken through Singh-Ray color polariser. A touch of long exposure brings even more surrealism to the final result. Enjoy it!

On a recent trip to Namibia we got to climb dune 45.
Dune 45 is part of the world's largest sand dunes, located in the Sossusvlei desert. We climbed up it at sunrise, it was amazing climbing up through the morning fog, then to watch it all clear away and realised how high up we actually were.

Sky Dances


Pretty straightforward landscape shot, but with amazing clouds formations. The beach of Hurghada, Egypt near the hotel. Wouldn't say the beach itself is too much perfect. Well, at least comparing with amazing sandy beaches of Curonian Spit, Lithuania
But, the difference is in temperature :D Baltic sea is damn cold

Shot almost at midday while having some easy few days at the resort

Enjoy the scenery!

This is a road occupied by traders in Lagos state Nigeria, a fast growing city with the largest population and economy in Nigeria. This city surpasses some countries in the African continent in terms of population and even the government budget. Known to be center of Excellence. Traffic is a major problem being faced by people in this city, that's why this cars lined up like they are on an assembly ground.

Elephantine island, on the Nile. An island near Aswan when we can admire ruins of an old mausoleum or temples. One can only imagine what that site looked like when it was erected. I would loved to have a time machine to see it.
