Puerto Varas, Chile. In 2015 My family and I were living in Region X of Chile. This particular house had a perfect view of of two beautiful volcanoes; Volcán Osorno on the left and Volcán Calbuco on the right. On the afternoon of April 22, Volcán Calbuco erupted without any prior indication of being active, and my tiny family and I were able to witness first hand - A once in a life time opportunity.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - Asian Sunday week #16 - winner announcement!

@narchuk Asian Sunday entry:

It happened in Thailand, in the Andaman Sea. At the very end of the dive I saw a sea turtle. She swam from coral to coral and did not notice my presence. Turtles are very calm, if you do not touch them. I swam next to her doing a frame-by-frame. At some point a flock of small fish swept past us. It lasted just a couple of seconds. I managed to make only one photo.

Stormy night over Darwin, this is a view from Nightcliff rocky beach if a thunder storm striking Darwin in the Northern territory of Australia. There nothing quite like it, I found it amazing to watch a bit like a firework.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Tuesday of Antarctica and world´s oceans week #16 – winner announcement!

@dmytrokorol Tuesday of Antarctica and world´s oceans entry:

When I first met the Ocean
We had been driving out of Lisbon to the south when the road led us to the coast. And I saw the ocean. And the setting sun. The colors were so beautiful! We stopped at the first place we had found I grabbed my gear and ran to the beach. Lucky me! It was Praia da Sines with these beautiful wooden stairs and the stones on the sandy beach. The first meeting was gorgeous. I knew there is more to come.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – North American Friday #16 – winner announcement!

@crazy-andy North American Friday entry:

This photo is from September 2014, when we were on 21 days long trip around USA. I am sure that most of you can recognize what is on the picture, mighty Grand Canyon. It was rainy day, so I thought that such photos won’t be possible but late afternoon the sun looked out and glorious sunset began.
