Svalbard spring

Svalbard spring

Several hours ago I watched the total solar eclipse which coincided with spring equinox. In Svalbard, March is one of the coldest months, and here you can see the sea is almost frozen over. With more sunny and calm days like this and this will be solid ice! Not spring as most of us like […]

Chapada dos Guimaraes National Park

Chapada dos Guimaraes National Park

This my second day here and thus another panorama (large image – click to see) of the incredible formations named Cidade de pedra in Portuguese, and this is one of the most spectacular natural wonders I’ve seen and should be a UNESCO World Heritage site! Getting here is very difficult as the park authorities only […]

Chapada dos Guimaraes National Park

Chapada dos Guimaraes National Park

This is a tiny fraction of the plateau which is the water source for Pantanal in Brazil – the largest wetland in the world. A major reason this has managed to stand against the forces of agricultural interests is the incredible rock formations and sheer cliffs, of which only a tiny portion is seen in […]

Cristalino Jungle Lodge canopy tower

Pousada Xaraés, Pantanal

Pantanal (Pousada Xaraés)

The sun is setting behind the trees, and dusk is fast approaching. This vista is typical of this part of the Pantanal. Lush green even at the end of the dry season, the jabiru storks are still finding plenty of food in the myriads of pools, and here and there you’ll come across fences seen […]

Iguaçu Falls (Cataratas do Iguaçu)

Iguaçu Falls (Cataratas do Iguaçu)

Iguaçu Falls is impressive in daylight, but in a moonlit setting like this it’s simply something you’ll never forget! The Moon is high on the right, and Venus is the bright star. The mist from the falls sometimes clogged up so much that it seemed completely cloudy, only to be completely gone a few minutes […]

Delingsdalen naturreservat

Delingsdalen naturreservat

Det er ikke ofte jeg går tur her i dalbunnen, og det er det ikke spor av at andre gjør heller. Det er nok kun de som søker hit, som meg, som kommer hit. For i dalbunnen er det sumpete og overalt er det trær som ligger overende og gjør dette til en naturlig hinderløype. […]
