One of those places in Norway which everyone should visit and experience - the way up the mountains called Trollstiegen - south from Åndalsnes in Rauma area. 11 hairpin bends brings us up to 852 m npm. On the top we can stop by visitors center and a steel walkways with great viewpoints on the whole road and the valley - seen on the photo. Next to the road we can see big waterfall Stigfossen by the old, stone bridge. One of those places where we can see real dramatic landscape of beautiful Norway.

Even in the evenings, Venice still has its charms. Just by walking along the canals, you can feel the Venetian vibe as the waves gently laps on the shore and Renaissance Venetian Architectures lighting up in the dark in their full glory. Here is a picture taken along the Grand Canal, looking across to the Church of San Giorgio Maggiore

Like you say, Venice has its charms at all times. I just wish it wasn't that crowded with people. Well, that's the price the popular destinations had to pay for its glory.

That's right, but sometimes the crowd gives it the amazing atmosphere, like during the carnival which is when we went. Surprising it didn't feel that crowdy when everyone just spontaneously broke into a dance off along the streets, or when masked visitors hangs around at St Marks Square at night. A lot of people, but it didn't feel uncomfortable.
Thanks for your support Tomas!

In the streets of the beautiful medieval village of Castelo de Vide (Alentejo region, southern Portugal), there are countless gothic-style doors that remained intact throughout the history of mankind... Walking through the alleys of this village is like returning a few centuries back in time!

This is my entry for today`s challenge. Sunset over capital city of Lithuania - Vilnius. One of the most colorful sunsets I have observed here. Colors like these lasted only for about 5 minutes at the end of golden hour and at very beginning of the blue hour. This is a single image, with no bracketing. Do not forget to enlarge the image and view in fullscreen. Enjoy.

This week’s entry is from Monemvasia. It is called the “Gibraltar of the East” or simply “The Rock”. Beautifully preserved, it invites you for a time-travel through the vaulted alleyways of the medieval Greece. I took this shot right after the moon rose above the sea. A magical time and place to be and to take pictures :)

Manarola is the second village in Cinque Terre which is my favourite one. I like it because the colourful houses are built on the cliff which is really special and different from Vernazza. This is why all the tourists aim at going to this village especially for those who just have limited travelling time.

Zagreb Cathedral
The Cathedral of Zagreb is one of Croatias most beautiful buildings. It was constructed in Gothic style and can be seen from most parts of the city. My wide-angle lens enabled me to capture this shot of the cathedral square.

Pretty stormy but colourful sunset at Dutchman's Cup, nearby Klaipeda, Lithuania. Very nice place with some interesting stones at the coast line.
This time was very long nice wave worth to be shot on a bit long exposure. Got lucky the suns appeared just short period before sunset from under the clouds giving a bit of warm contrasting colours to the picture
Enjoy the scenery!

In this photo, it can be seen some of the most famous landmarks of London. There is the Big Ben and the Houses of the Parliament or the Palace of Westminster, with its impressive towers. The photo was taken from the opposite site of the river Thames, in the foreground of the image there is the famous London Eye, built for the arrival of the millennium.

"Stroke of a Wing"
London, what a vibrant metropolitan city. A playground for night time and long exposure photography. Every poster-catalog is filled with iconic images of this place. Be it the phone booth, the Buses, the Big Ben.... There is soooo much to see. Cover your lens and body with a plastic bag and enjoy this extraordinary destination. I had such a great time to look for new perspectives, cool exposures and so on and so forth. This one's out of the book. Wait for a boat to pass the bridge and get the triangles between the towers. Shot with my Nikon D5300 and the 16-85mm (f3.5 Nikon lens)
Shooting London!

There is a mini forest right in the heart of the National Library in Paris (Bibliothèque François Mitterrand).
In the center of this huge glass towers stand tall trees, the all construction looks a little out of place but it's a great place to visit.
Location:Paris, France.

Hi @czechglobalhosts here's my entry:
The beautifully manicured Fitzgerald's Park, with its pleasant walking paths, modern art installations and a small museum is located in the second largest city of Ireland, Cork (the real capital as the locals insist).
The locals and visitors alike love coming here on the bright, and not so bright, days and just lounge around taking in the colours, the smells, the serene surroundings...

Hi Tomas,
This is my entry for the contest this week:
Tarragona. Repaint the sky
This photo was taken in the port of Tarragona city, Catalonia, Spain. I spent 2 years of my youth for studying Master in this beautiful city. At the initial time, everything is touch for me. I did not know anyone, did not have any friend here. This place is where I used to visit at the afternoon, to look at the sky and free my mind.
And in a beautiful day, the blue sky looks stunning with the trace of cloud.
It reminds me to the beautiful time of my youth living here.
Best,

This was taken at Dovedale in the Peak District, a stunning area in England. I remember that day was drizzling on and off as it does in England, and just before I took this photo the rain had stopped. Suddenly I glanced to my right, and saw this stunning view. There were some overgrown grass right next to me, with pockets of white flowers shooting through. Behind that were rows of low stone walls dividing the green fields. It was hazy at the back, not sure if that was due to the rain clearing away or coming towards me. It was absolute stunning.
