Outstanding series Timur.

These are from Lake St.Clair, in the highlands of Tasmania. The lake, Australia's deepest, was carved by a glacier. You can see the etchings on the rocks from when they were carried and dumped by the glacier. The whole area (Cradle Mountain-Lake St.Clair NP) is a World Heritage Area, recognizing its remarkable natural features and rich biodiversity. K-3 + DA 12-24.






Thank you! I was lucky enough to see in person the beautiful nature up in those) that area, glad you enjoyed the images

One of your many very pleasant images. From the depth of the channel below the general ground surface, I'll wager that little stream flows far more vigorously at times.

Thanks Walt. This is typical of the creeks around here. They can go from a puddle to roaring rapids in a heartbeat!

One of our favorite dogwalk areas...the lake levels rarely reach the bridge like this:

Part of the coast going south to Cape Hope & Cape of Good Hope.

BTW: I had never thought about it until we visited here, but Cape Hope, the southernmost tip of Africa, is at latitude 34o4' S. Much of the boundary between Virginia & North Carolina, Between Kentucky and Tennessee, as well as the northern boundary of Texas are at 36o30'N. That means parts of North Carolina, Tennessee, and Texas are closer to the North Pole than the tip of Africa is to the South Pole.

Interesting!

From the north shore of Lake Grapevine. We live near the south shore and don't visit up here as often as we should.

A dune popular with people who enjoy going up two steps, then down one.

Along the road into and close to Swakopmund, Namibia. I took the picture from our tour bus on-the-go.
