@axeman African Wednesday entry:
African sunrise. Early morning at Hurghada, Egypt. Very calm and wonderfully colorful one. Shot at the beach just on the territory of the hotel. This time sun already risen, but hided behind narrow line of clouds on the horizon, allowing to get few more pretty unusual frames with a sunbeams spreading both to the top and to the bottom. Some silhouettes of the boats far away... Shot with long tele-photo lens compressing the perspective. Enjoy the scenery :)

In Bolivia, the Tiwanaku civilization, is a pre-Inca civilization that dominated the southern half of the central Andes between the fifth century and the eleventh century. Here are some of the statues encrusted on one of the walls of the semi-underground temple in front of the ceremonial temple of Kalasasaya.
Kalasasaya is derived from the aymara Kala voice (Stone) and Saya (stopped), It would mean "standing stones". The temple was built in the early twentieth century and possibly contemporary Templete Semisubterráneo.
Here's a photo I took at the Atacama desert region in North Chile. I was hiking towards a peak and was impressed by this amazing view. The neatly cut sand ridge formed a beautiful curve stretching towards the cliff in distance. The golden sun rays cast a dreamy shade on the whole scene. Truly magical! :)
You do not seem to participate much those days but when you do it sure is worth it!
Cable Cars in La Paz, Bolivia
Bolivia might be a developing country, but one part of its public transport system is amazing: La Paz, the countries biggest city, has various cable car lines that conquer the enormous height differences in no time. A ride costs less than USD 0.40!

I have also posted this photo on my blog.
What an interesting type of public transportation! Thank you so much for sharing that with all of us.
Sunset seen from the belvedere near the beaches Azeda and Azedinha. In the city Armação dos Búzios, famous for its beautiful beaches. One of the few places in the state of Rio de Janeiro - Brazil, where you can see the sun dying in the direction of the sea.
Stunning!
Thank you ! I'll be more careful not to forget the 30 words, and I'm shooting every day. I hope to win anytime.
What a wonderful entry, thank you so much for your entry.
This photograph of this particular house with cactus on the roof is one of the most emblematic because I had never seen so many cactus on the roof of a house although I have seen several this has the record, my brother wanted me to take this picture of This house with cactus on the roof that I share today from Margarita Island Venezuela.
Bunch of Iguana chilling in 'La Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino'. This place in Santa Marta, Colombia, is famous for being the place of death of Simon Bolivar.
This is now a museum with paintings, statues and a small garden, with local plants and plenty of iguanas.

Photo of the Humboldt Hotel at the top of the “Cerro El Ávila”, located at more than 2000 meters at sea level. This mountain is located in front of Caracas (Venezuela), and it can be reached by cable car. At the summit of the mount there is gigantic Venezuelan flag. The building of Humboldt Hotel is an iconic piece of the Venezuelan architecture of the 50s.
Amazing job, great shots!
