  1. Panoramic view of #LakeGuatavita in #Colombia

    My sister is visiting Colombia, reminding me of my time there. This sacred lake was the burial place of indigenous kings along with their gold. The Spanish became very frustrated that they were unable to retrieve these treasures.

  6. #RainStorm, #GobiDesert, #Mongolia

    I was surprised to find that the Gobi Desert isn't just sand dunes and camels. Upon arrival here it rained buckets for a few days before clearing. The vastness creates a feeling of soul-searching isolation and calm.

  7. #Sunset at #FlamingCliffs, #Mongolia

    There's a spot in the #GobiDesert where sunset briefly casts light on the face of these cliffs. On the day of my visit it was cloudy and it appeared that I was out of luck. But as there was a fleeting moment where the sun broke through. I have tweeked the brightness-contrast to make the shot more attractive to me.

  8. I'm Back!

    Some of you might have noticed my absence from Mastodon for the last few months. I'm home now after extensive travels; and will attempt to resume my regular posting.

    Here is a shot of a Mongolian nomad and her daughter carving reindeer antlers for sale to tourists.

  9. Gymnasium Floor #Mosaic, #VillaRomanaDelCasale, Piazza #Armerina, #Sicily

    This Roman Villa was buried in a mudslide, preserving much of the building's content and mosaics. Each room contained floor mosiacs appropriate to the room's function.

  10. Salt Ponds, #Marsala, #Sicily

    They make salt the old fashioned way, by evaporation. They still use a variation of Archimidies screw to move varying concentrations of brine from one pond to a higher pond.

  11. #Cascade, #Allariz, #Spain

    ///doting.arachnid.motorcycles [what3words]

    This park is in a sleepy Spanish town along the way from Santiago de Compostela and Lamego, Portugal. The river Arnoia has recently flooded due to unusually heavy rainfall, but the local citizenry have been quick to restore this local treasure.

  12. #Taxi, #Montenegro, #Colombia

    I took this taxi to a #CoffeePlantation between Montenegro and #Finlandia in the Colombian mountains. Vehicles here are mostly four-wheel-drive because rural roads are challenging to navigate. This section is in excellent condition but it's the exception.

  13. #TempleOfHera, #Agrigento, #Italy

    Agrigento is an expansive well-preserved Roman archaeological site in #Sicily. The site had been occupied for over three hundred years before the Romans settled there and named it Agrigentum. This Greek temple became the Temple of Juno (Guinone) in #Roman times.

  14. #MtMachuPicchu, #MachuPicchu, #Peru

    I had the good fortune to have Machu Picchu mostly to myself after closing time. This can be a deeply spiritual place once the scope and location are considered in a moment of silence. Not a place for a selfie, but a place for self awareness.

  15. #PhotoStudio, #Montenegro, #Colombia

    On my way to visit a coffee plantation I passed through the remote small town of Montenegro and was surprised to see that there is photo studio; something I'd expect in a more urban setting. Infrastructure in Colombia is poor - fly city to city then ride a donkey to town. While it's not as bad as that, these small town businesses have a #monopoly because the #isolation.
