San Gimiagno is probably my favourite town during my Tuscany trip a few years ago. The town is famous for its towers, a sign of wealth in the old day. The wealthier you are, the taller a tower you will build.

Halloween is just around the corner so let me come up with something thematic today. This a monochrome shot of the Vysehrad Cemetery in Prague. The origins of the Vysehrad Cemetery date back to the 13th century when it was established as a regular municipal cemetery. In 1869, however, the site was "upgraded" to a national cemetery that has been serving as the last resting place of many prominent figures of the Czech history.

Unbelievable what autumn can conjure up for colors. It was supposed to be an ordinary walk through the autumn forest. But then I lifted my head up and saw a lot of colors that mixed in the trees.

Pěkné barvy, to hraje podzimem!

Zajímavý úhel a parádní barvy :)

I took this picture on my way to the city where I recently moved - Sibiu.
Autumn is my favourite season because I am a lover for the various colours of nature that can be seen only in the wilderness.

Wooow! Looks like a collage of a day landscape and night sky :) Amazing piece.

Thank you so much! :)

The 'Calanque d'Ensuès la Redonne', France, at sunset. We had a dance event organized by the sea this summer, a small lindy hop practise. The color at sunset were super nice, the water was warm and the music groovy. Good vibes all over.

The beautiful and ancient village of Mértola, located in Baixo Alentejo region (Southeast Portugal), was built and founded on the banks of the Guadiana - the great river of Southern Iberia. This is the view from the south side of the village ...

Good luck to all participants!

Last week I woke up early for some pike fishing. When I got to the fishing spot, it was quite misty so I grabbed the drone and raised it up above the mists. Here is what I got to see. A small village shrouded in mists. This is the beautiful România.

Photo of the Kunsthaus de Graz in Austria. This is art interesting building for its unconventional design, it belongs to the style known as “Blob Architecture”, which states that the buildings should resemble living creatures. The nickname of this building is “Friendly Alien”.

Častolovice Chateau
The origins of the aristocratic mansion in the place of today's chateau date back to the mid-13th century. This picturesque chateau has undergone several fundamental changes in the past. The first significant change was brought to him by the Renaissance at the turn of the 16th and 17th centuries. In the 1870s it was rebuilt in the Neo-Gothic spirit. At the beginning of the 20th century, it was replaced by a Neo-Renaissance. Great emphasis is placed on flower decoration in the courtyard and in the interiors of the chateau.

This is the view from the coastline in southwest Portugal. Far away, the little building that's barely seen on the photo is the lighthouse of cabo São Vicente, the cape at the very tip of the country.

The Hallgrímskirkja church is one of the most iconic (and tallest) buildings in Reykjavik and the whole of Iceland. Its beautiful artisanal design is recognised worldwide. A must visit.
