The dance in my dream. Couldn\'t believe that the swan just started shaking its feathers in front of me, with the massive Mt Fuji as the backdrop. What a dreamy scene.
Phare du Four lighthouse, frozen in an eternal standoff with the ocean. The wave crashes, but in a moment, the water will retreat, and it will remain—unmoving, as always.
When I captured this scene in the highlands of Iceland, I could hardly believe that such a sight actually existed on Earth. The volcanic craters that once erupted are now silent and standing like relics of time. The red rock in the center of the screen is the \\\\\\\"Scoria\\\\\\\" stained by iron oxidation in lava, as if it were blood overflowing from the Earth\\\\\\\'s interior. This desolate and uniquely colored land constantly reminds me of extraterrestrial worlds. This may be the closest scene I have captured to another planet so far.
Taken in Vestrahorn, southern Iceland. As I ran towards the direction of the morning light, it felt as if the road beneath my feet was covered in warmth. The mist rolled up by the huge waves in the distance is like a shiny silk fluttering in the wind, stirring the hearts of every traveler.
Against the golden hues of a vibrant sunset, a great blue heron brings a stick to its mate as they work together to build their nest. The intricate silhouettes of the herons and their structure stand in harmony with the fading light, capturing a tender moment of cooperation and devotion. This image celebrates the beauty of nature’s rhythms, the enduring partnerships of wildlife, and the splendor of creation against the backdrop of a glowing evening sky.
Magical sunset at Punta de Teno, Tenerife. After a challenging descent through the rocks, I found this natural arch, perfectly aligned with the setting sun. A moment that paid off all the effort, capturing the strength of the sea and the light that makes its way through nature
The Lucanian hills reveal themselves in all their primordial charm, with soft profiles that follow one another like waves. The fields, worked by man and sculpted by time, create a play of textures and shades, from gold to pale green. At the center of the scene, a solitary rural structure emerges, a silent symbol of an ancient bond with the land. This photograph captures the essence of the quiet and authentic beauty of a timeless Italian landscape.
Amidst the otherworldly landscape of New Mexico’s desert, sculpted sandstone formations rise like ancient sentinels, shaped by millennia of wind and time. The photograph captures the ethereal beauty of this remote terrain at sunset, as the last light of day ignites the intricate textures and contours of the rock. The interplay of warm hues and deep shadows enhances the surreal, almost alien atmosphere, inviting the viewer to lose themselves in this timeless wonder.
The mulafossur waterfall, photographed in the Faroe Islands, is located on the edge of the cliff of gasadalur village in the west of vagar island. The waterfall on the cliff is like a silver ribbon, flowing down light and shining with the surrounding green mountains and waters. The weather in the Faroe Islands is changeable. When we first arrived, it was still cloudy. We couldn\\\\\\\'t see the mountains in the distance. The clouds slowly spread behind us, so we were able to take this picture.
Once vibrant, these trees now stand as silent ghosts beneath the water’s surface. A reminder of nature’s ever-changing fate, where life fades, yet beauty endures.
Emerging from the misty depths of Fanal Forest, this ancient tree takes the form of a guardian—its twisted limbs reaching as if to cradle an unseen presence. Cloaked in moss and shaped by time, it stands as a silent sentinel, embodying the delicate balance between nature’s resilience and its fleeting mysteries.
The power of nature manifests itself in its play of forms and movements. The clouds, pushed by the wind, envelop the peaks of the Seceda like a stormy sea that breaks down on the cliffs. A moment in which the border between heaven and earth seems to dissolve, leaving room only for the wild beauty of the Dolomites.
The autumn Dolomites bring views full of colors. It was no different in this place, which at first seemed to be a disappointment. Finally, at sunset, the last rays of sunshine appeared and it lit up the whole photo a little...
Sometimes you don\'t need a complex composition, but on the contrary, a simple and clear motif is enough. When this is then supported by the great colors that were seen in the Lofoten Islands in Norway during the winter trip, the result looks good.
One of a series of photos from the Lofoten 2025 photo expedition. The beautiful landscape of Lofoten is worth a visit and if the weather is good, it is truly beautiful.
\"Southeastern Tibet, Sea of Clouds and Snowy Mountains\"。
In the southeast of Xizang, on an unknown hill, the clouds are wreathed like a fairy mountain on the clouds
Without a doubt, this is one of the most remote and difficult places to reach I\'ve ever been in my life. After 80 kilometers on a 4x4 along a rocky road and 25 kilometers on foot, you reach this unique spot where water has formed and sculpted a canyon that looks more like a painting than a real place.
A place suspended between dream and reality, where nature expresses itself with all its mystical power. The centuries-old trees of Fanal stand like guardians of an ancient time, wrapped in moss and lichen, while the fog dances between their gnarled branches. In the distance, a solitary tree stands out in the center of this natural frame, creating a vanishing point that draws the eye and the spirit towards infinity. A photograph that celebrates the strength and poetry of one of the most fascinating landscapes of the island of Madeira.
Standing at the different side of the mountain when one tree is getting bathed in sunlight and other is in the shadow, it seems, they are staring at each other and singing the song,
I will stay on the other side,
you will stay on this side,
I will only see you with my two eyes full.
The “Yosemite Firefall” is a natural phenomenon that occurs in Yosemite National Park, California, USA when the setting sun hits Horsetail Fall at the right angle, creating an orange glow that resembles a lava flow. The firefall usually occurs in mid- to late February, when certain weather conditions are met. The waterfall begins to light up few minutes before sunset when the sun is at the right angle and the waterfall is flowing.
I researched about Yosemite Firefall and went on a solo trip in February 2024 when weather predictions are ideal for Firefall. I reached 4 hours before the sunset and set my camera with hundreds of photographers crowded in a small picnic area to capture this rare phenomenon. I was lucky enough to capture this shot on the first try itself as small changes in weather condition is enough to ruin in the firefall effect.

Once standing tall, these trees now lie submerged, their lifeless branches reaching out in silent lament. This hauntingly beautiful scene captures the fragile balance between nature and time—where water reclaims the land, leaving only echoes of what once thrived.
Скала Дракон — это самая западная точка острова Огой на озере Байкал. Выступающие породы кварца, гранита и известняка расположились таким образом, что образовали голову и фигуру фантастического существа. О Драконе рассказывают легенды и предания. Дракон застыл, пытаясь вырваться из овладевшего им камнем, но так и замер в полете. Теперь величественный Дракон охраняет весь пролив Малое море, и местные жители с большим уважением относятся к своему хранителю.
In the Fanal forest you can\'t help but admire these fantastic trees with atypical shapes.
In particular, he will always be the guardian of the forest for me!
Engulfed by water and shadow, these lifeless trees stand as quiet remnants of a vanished landscape. A scene of stillness, mystery, and inevitable change.
This photo captures the beauty and tranquility of nature with a waterfall at its center and lush vegetation all around it. The water cascades into a tranquil pool below, while the surrounding rocks are covered in moss. The light and shadows make this scene even more mesmerizing, and I was lucky enough to capture the sunlight filtering through the forest and casting a mystical ray of light on the waterfall.
– Рейтинг фотографов по странам и городам строится на основе 3-х лучших фотографий автора и их относительной позиции в каждой отдельной номинации. Рейтинг в номинации "Мобильная фотография" учитывается в меньшей степени для формирования рейтинга. В списке по странам и городам показывается одна фотография автора с лучшим рейтингом.
– В списке опубликованы только работы которые прошли 2-й этап голосования.
– В рейтинге лучших фотографий учитывается только одна — самая сильная — работа от каждого автора. Даже если у фотографа опубликовано несколько работ, в расчёте позиции используется только одна, с наивысшим рейтингом. Поэтому порядок фотографий в списке может не совпадать с итоговым положением автора в рейтинге.
– The rating of photographers by countries and cities is based on the three best photos of the author and their relative position in each separate nomination. Rating in the nomination "Mobile Photography" is taken into account to a lesser extent for rating formation. The list by country and city shows one photo of the author with the best rating.
– Only those photos have been published in the list that passed the second stage of voting.
– Only one strongest photo from each author is counted in the Best Photos ranking. Even if a photographer has several published works, only the highest-rated one is used to calculate their ranking position. As a result, the order of photos in the list may not match the author's final ranking position.
