This photo spot at Business Bay offered me an amazing view of Burj Khalifa and Downtown Dubai. I really like the silky water surface in this picture and how the bridge forms a frame for the skyscrapers.

@kekos Australian Monday entry:

The Whitsunday Islands are a collection of continental islands in central coast of Queensland, Australia. Photo was taken from Whitehaven Beach view. The beach is known for its crystal white silica sands and turquoise coloured waters. Such a beautifull experience to swim there and touch the finest sand I've ever seen.

Love that pic! Man, you have no idea how much I love Mexico. And this pic brings me back to some of the little places I visited. I went 5 times this year :D

Wow, 5 times this year?! :) Well, most of my content here on Steem is actually from Mexico as that´s where I was living for some 2 years, just until recently (and my Steem account is 2 years old :D)

At Battery Park in New York, you can see a bronze sculpture made by the Marisol Escobar in 1991, that represents sailors asking for help because their boat is sinking. One of them even tries to help his companion who is drowning. The name of that sculpture is « Merchant Mariner's Memorial » , and it commemorates the sinking of the oil tanker Muskogee.

Winter Charm
For the northern hemisphere tomorrow is the Winter Solstice and seasonal snowy cold weather could soon follow. When snow blankets the Red Rock Country it creates a charming effect with a beautiful blend of colors. This wonderful snowstorm passed over on New Years Day morning to start 2019 and left behind frigid temperatures in its wake. Sedona Arizona USA.

Beautiful as always ~ ✨ ~

Thanks and best wishes.
