What a beautiful little Caribbean island off the coast of Venezuela! The beaches are spectacular, and so is the color (and the feel) of the water. But let’s get started slowly with a few overwater views.

On the way to the airport there was time for a detour into Big Cypress to see some sleeping and swimming Alligators as well as quite a bit of other wildlife, too.

Wynwood Walls Urban Graffiti in Miami and Unicorns on Miami’s beaches. A good start into a hot and humid summer!

Orchards near Oberdorf, Basel-Landschaft, are in full bloom, as seen from the sky (with a small drone while on a mountainbike trip from Olten to Liestal BL).
Every Sunday, Paseo de la Reforma turns into a maze of bike lanes, closed for traffic. I have seen it a couple of times while visiting but not managed to rent a bike myself. This time, I went for it!

Mountains and waterfall with a snowy and icy backdrop are the features of day 3 in Iceland. I returned to Seljalandsfoss, which again was a marvel but a challenging one to photograph, with quite a few others trying to get to the right spot without drenching their equipment (some fared better than others) and themselves (almost impossible for anyone, really). Here’s what I got:
Strokkur erupts with the sun low on the horizon, Geysir, Iceland
Telephoto shot of Seljalandsfoss, Iceland
Behind the waterfall… Seljalandsfoss, Iceland
Highlands with mountains and glaciers at Þingvallavatn near Þingvellir, Iceland

Also returned to the famous Kirkjufell mountain on Snæfellsnes peninsula and Hraunfossar lava waterfalls. Wonderful scenery again, and this time in a more wintery situation. Loved it despite the cold.
