The Landscape Photography Thread

Just got back from a fantastic adventure in the deserts of Namibia..
It will probably take a couple of weeks to get the photos downloaded as I’m retiring at the end of the month and have a lot to do but here is a photo that my wife took of a couple of our group going down one of the many slip faces in the Namib desert....

That's quite a dune face.
We just got back from Costa Rica, and I've wondered about sharing a few wildlife or landscape shots on WTW.
 
Thanks Jackie! After the first couple of drops you’re able to breathe!

Here are a few that were taken with my Nikon with a long telephoto lens...

We are in the Florida Keys for a few days and we’re able to visit “the most remote National Park”
The Dry Tortugas National,Park which is about 70 miles West of Key West Florida.

We were able to take the Olympus M1X and the 12-100mm lens to Mono Lake California to try it out.

Mono Lake tufa formations after the storm. After Thursday's snowstorm Jan. 17, we got up at 5 a.m. Friday and drove several hours on icy roads (all the way) to see Mono Lake in the snow. The access road is 5 miles in from U.S. Hwy. 395 and it is plowed only part way, so if you go after a bigger storm, you will need skis or snowshoes. Unlike the summer months when it is mobbed, we did not see another person viewing the tufa! Though we were there later in the morning not at early light, it was nice to see snow on the Tufa.

The area has also sand tufa that used to be underwater when the lake was higher, but are now far from the lake shore; the largest ones can be approximately 3 feet tall. For those unfamiliar with the area, the mountains in the background are the Sierra peaks on the northwest edge of Yosemite National Park.

We have been setting up a web page, Only been thinking about it for 9 years!! But here is in the progress stage. https://www.patrickpeveyphotography.com/
