This photo was taken in Monument Valley in October 2007. I believe that this particular area on the Utah/Arizona border is one of the most scenic places to visit in the Southwest. I feel I have captured its beauty and colorful scenery in this picture, which is a favorite of mine. Photo taken by Dorothy F. Valenti (États-Unis) - Travel/Vacation

This aboriginal dancer is a typical dancer of Central Australia. I am from Holland and have lived in Alice Springs (Central Australia) for two years now. This man showed a ritual dance to honour the land we live in, walk on, and feed ourselves from. The blurriness adds to the mystique of the character, I think. EXIF details: unsure, handheld in darkness. Postprocessing: PS CS2, burn and sharpen Photo taken by Joyce van Dijk (Australie) - People/Family/Friends

Fall is my favorite season of the year! I especially love all the colors it brings--oranges of pumpkins and the golds and reds of Indian corn; reflected also in the beautiful changes in colors of leaves on trees. I had bought the small, minature pumpkin in the foreground and Indian corn in the background for a home decoration from a local supermarket. I think the photo conveys the nature of the fall season perfectly! Photo taken by Susan Rosin (États-Unis) - Nature

Watching this Osprey grow up and standing on this dead tree about 200 yards away from it nest is like when a young child grows up and leave's home. Touches the heart but make's you proud. Florida 08. Photo taken by Bill Foxworthy (États-Unis) - Animals/Pets

My wife and I went down to the beach on a hot summer day. I turned around and clicked a couple of shots of this lady riding along the waves at sunset. Didn't think to much about it. When I got home I couldn't believe what I had. Photo taken by Joe Garry (États-Unis) - People/Family/Friends

This was shot in Aug. 08 in Jaipur. The architectural beauty and unique structure attracted me to shoot it. Hawa Mahal is a Rajput style of Architecture and literally means Palace of Winds.

It is fifty-foot high thin shield less than a foot thickness. It was built in 1799 by Maharaja Sawai Pratap Singh. Photo taken by Mukesh Srivastava (Inde) - Travel/Vacation

While spending our 30th wedding anniversary in New York City (our first time there), we were waiting in line for the ferry to the Statue of Liberty. There were several street performers. One fellow was playing his violin and I notice his wonderful hands. He was kind enough to let me take some photos. They were well worn. I thought I could tell that story best in a close up.
