In northern Chile, the Atacama Desert covers 105.000 square kilometres and runs 1.600 kilometres along the Pacific coast. This is one of the driest places in the world. The landscape is characterized by volcanoes, sand, rocks and high altitude lakes. Many places the it resembles a lunar landscape. The photo was taken in a place called Valle de la Luna / Valley of the Moon. Sand and rock formations in various shapes and sizes. The landscape has been carved by water and wind. The range of colours and the texture does make you think you are on the moon. The valley is located approx. 10 kilometres from San Pedro de Atacama, which makes a natural place to stay when exploring this part of Atacama. This photo is my entry to @photofeed contest

Rice planting in northern Vietnam, just south of Hanoi. I don't really know if there is only one season, or if rice can be planted all year round. The photo was taken on a walk somewhere in the area of Nin Binh and in the beginning of March. This photo is my entry to @photofeed contest

Before going to Botswana and the Chobe National Park, I knew that the country has a high number of elephants. I was there in April this year and just before going, we heard on the news that the president in Botswana threatened to send 20.000 elephants to Germany. The background for wanting to do this, is that the German Government wanted to forbid hunting trophies. Activist within some organizations working for animal protection was also against hunting elephants.

The little girl has been picking flowers along the road. She is going to bring them home to give to her mom. A nice and thoughtful gesture. The photo was taken in Kristiansand, close to where I live. The little girl is the daughter of my neighbor. I met her outside on my way back from the shop. That's when we talked and she told me who she had picked the flowers was for.

The phota was taken at Amalienborg, the Royal Residence. The photo only shows two buildings out of four that makes up the palace. These are build around an octagonal courtyard. The building you see in the middle is Fredrikskirken. A church that Frederic the 5 th. Started building. But because it became too expensive, it wasn't completed until 1894.

In Chobe National Park, Botswana, I was on a boat on the Chobe River. This huge crocodile was resting on one of the islands in the river. He is huge! We guessed he has a length somewhere between 2 and 3 meters. This one was all alone on land. But as we moved along the riverbank we saw the heads of others on the edge of the water. This river is not a place to go for a swim! This photo is my entry to @photofeed contest
