Pretty places

[Michi]

I thought it might be nice if people posted pics of some special places they've been to.

This is the Bay of Fires, Tasmania. The orange colour on the rocks is a particular lichen.

Yes, the sand and the ocean really are that colour…

Farsta centrum. Known for its generous servings of cheap wine (you basically fill up a large wine glass).

Baxter State Park, a couple hours South.

Not So Pretty, she looks like she's been ridden hard.

Against our better judgement we recently took the girls out of school and made a short journey to the South Carolina shore, Edisto Island. We were on the southwestern shore and were blessed with some amazing sunsets, among other vistas.

Before we had kids we made a journey to Alaska <2006?>, it was there I took what has become one of my favorite pictures. In fact a 20"x30" print I just had dry-mounted is waiting for pick up...

@GoodMagic Did you take that pic? I've never seen anything like that in real life, but my travels are limited.

Yes I did. Milky Way is visible in dark places during the spring and summer in North America. Used a Sony camera wit a 20 mm f1.8 lens And a 20 second exposure.

It is not my pic, I am sad to report. I first became aware of the Dallas Divide area north of Telluride, CO about 25 years ago. I have not yet been there.

No unfortunately not, would have made life easier

Found another one I took a long time ago…

Llyn Idwal in Wales. Unfortunately I knew nothing about natural stones back then .

Taken on horseback, one of the few pics that were not totally blurry, it was tough between the low light of sunset and bouncing around on a horse, this is near Tucson, AZ

 

[chefwp]

Same AZ trip, this is Antelope Canyon, a slot canyon at the other end of the state, Page, AZ.

Wife and I hiked up to Cutthroat Lake in the North Cascades a couple years back. One of my favorite spots in the world in the fall when the golden larches are out. This is a 100% true color photo with the alpine lake and everything. The water is like green glass.
