I hiked up to Pulpit Rock in Norway on May 16, 2009. It was one of the most amazing things I've ever done. Even pictures can't fully describe the beauty.

From Wikipedia:

Preikestolen or Prekestolen, also known by the English translations of Preacher's Pulpit or Pulpit Rock, and by the old local name Hyvlatonnå, is a massive cliff 604 metres (1982 feet) above Lysefjorden, opposite the Kjerag plateau, in Forsand, Norway. The top of the cliff is approximately 25 by 25 metres (82 by 82 feet) square and almost flat, and is a famous tourist attraction in Norway.

Just reposting one of my favorities =)

I took this photo at the top of a mountain on the island of Langkawi, Malaysia. I could not resist as they were wearing such wonderful bright clothing and they seemed so happy together. I have applied HDR treatment, and have also used Topaz to smooth out the photo.

This is one of my favorite photos I have ever taken. It was just one of those moments where I was walking around with my camera, and everything came together. The chubby little boy with dreadlock, the big RC truck which is clearly intimdating the seagull. The the layers of grass, sea, vegatation, and sky. It was just one of those great moments.
