Water of the rock by Francesco Alamia


Cefalù (Sicilian: Cifalù, Greek: Κεφαλοίδιον, Diod., Strabo, or Κεφαλοιδὶς, Ptol.; Latin: Cephaloedium, or Cephaloedis, Pliny) is a city and comune in the province of Palermo, located on the northern coast of Sicily, Italy on the Tyrrhenian Sea about 70 km east from the provincial capital and 185 km west of Messina. The town, with its population of just under 14,000, is one of the major tourist attractions in the region. Despite its size, every year it attracts millions of tourists from all parts of Sicily and also, from all over Italy and Europe. In summer the population can triple, making the main streets and major roads in the country crowded. There is then a youthful atmosphere and a lively nightlife.

A farmer on Longji Rice Terrace by Woosra Kim


The Longji(Dragon's Backbone) Rice Terraces are located in Longsheng County, about 100 km from Guilin, Guangxi, China.The terraced fields are built along the slope winding from the riverside up to the mountain top, the highest part being 900m in elevation while the lowest part is 400m. The coiling line that starts from the mountain foot up to the mountain top divides the mountain into layers of water glittering in the sun in spring, layers of green rice shoots in summer, layers of golden rice in fall, and layers of silvery frost in winter. The terraced fields were mostly built during the Ming Dynasty, about 500 years ago.They are often considered most beautiful in the end of May or early June. At this time, water is pumped over the rice paddies and young plants are transferred to the main terraces.2013, 05 ⓒwoosra

Heaven on Earth by Marc Adamus


Perhaps my favorite image from this year did not come from Patagonia. It didn't come from backpacking in the high and cold for weeks alone. It didn't come from some crazy adventure at the ends of the earth and it didn't come from any place I had seen before. It came from a place of warm ocean winds off the trails in a lonely woodland on the California coast while I was taking a walk with my 4 year-old son. You need not travel across state, across country or across the world to find beauty in nature. On this evening, I was having a wonderful time and I couldn't help but be taken by the beauty of the place. I photographed it with my D800 which can, remarkably, handle even this much dynamic range in a single file. Choose to blend a little more for the shadow details only though, just to keep image quality as high as possible and after adding a little selective diffusion and color adjustment that was pretty much it. Hopefully the compression used by this site now still allows for decent viewing of the sharp details in this image. Thanks in advance for any commentary.
