Algerian Arch Angels IV by MarselvanOosten

Last month I was Highly Commended in the Travel Photographer Of The Year Awards for a series of images that I shot in Algeria.

This is the fourth image from that series. The first image is here, as well as some background info.

The Sahara is constantly changing – the sand goes where the wind goes. As a result, the dunes are always on the move. In some areas entire rock formations have been swallowed by the sand, in others you can still witness this happening – like in this shot. The guy on top of the arch is one of our crew.

Golden Cliff by ArturStanisz

This large scale mountain abstract was taken on Baffin Island. I call it large scale because the cliff was about 500-600 meters high.
It was located just across the Mount Asgard on Turner Glacier. This is one of those unplanned photos. I was hiking across the glacier on this cold afternoon, looking for possible compositions to shoot aurora later in the night.
As I was passing by this granite wall, I stopped for a while to put on another layer of clothing. I took a moment to look around and I noticed a warm sunset light illuminating the face of this rock. The combination of cold surrounding and the warm light created interesting view. This cold-warm contrast combined with all converging lines of the cliff caught my eye so I decided to capture it.

Rio Negro by Scubadaddy

During an expedition into the Amazon we came across these very curious Pink Dolphins. It was very hard to photograph them, as Rio negro is as you would suspect almost black, and you only see what a few feet in front of you.
