In The Water by axle88

The best way to get a good picture is being inspired, and for that, the best inspiration of all is music. This picture of Fairy Glen was inspired by the song In the water, by Anadel while taking the shot.
I remember I was literally in the water for taking this photo, while the water was really cold and at least one meter and an half deep, but nothing stopped me because I knew that this moment was the right one to capture, studying the composition and how the water was flowing from an higher point for at least 30 minutes.

Moody Nuns by everlookphotography

Wakefield Falls
New Zealand

This is the run off from Wakefield Falls which overlooks the Nuns Veil just south of Tasman Lake. The tip of the lake is just visible in the distance. South of this location, the sunrise was a threatening to blow up but in the mountains, the clouds ruled. This spot is a fun 1km rock scramble and if there wasn’t so much ice, a good wade into wakefield falls itself (100m behind me in this shot) would have been a similar experience to the Icelandic Glujfurjarfoss.

On a side note, I’ve noticed a strong bias toward panoramic shots becoming popular on 500px with the new layout so my prediction is that not many people will even see this shot. It’s one of my favourites from the trip but perhaps that’s because it was a fresh viewpoint (just like the previous Isthmus peak shot)

Nido Dei Passeri LE by axle88

Being in holidays on my homeland makes me feel free. My island is something amazing and the coastlines always give you a sense of peace where you can express yourself with photography! This is Nido dei passeri, in the island of Sant’Antioco, in south west Sardinia. I went there few times but the sunset wasn’t the greatest, so I kept trying and trying until I’ve got what I was looking for.

The second picture of the amazing sunset in Hartland Quay, Devon.
The spectacular cliffs at Hartland Quay with their incredibly contorted rock layers are always worth a visit and at low tide there is plenty of sand, rock pools and rocks to scramble over. In wild weather it is the perfect place to appreciate the power of the sea and wind as the waves crash against the cliffs and shore.

blue comes the morning by darkelfphotography

A cloudy and gloomy morning made for a contemplative blue hour shooting at the rock shelf in Kiama. I had to battle the rain and wind in search for the long exposures. Luckily I found a reasonably sheltered spot and this is the result.
