A sailboat drifts past across crystalline blue water in Georgian Bay. This photograph was taken from high atop the cliffs of the headland known as Lion’s Head. Lion’s Head is a provincial park in Ontario accessible only by foot, via the Bruce Trail, Canada’s oldest and longest hiking trail.
The dark reddish sky is reflected in the waters of Georgian Bay off the shores of the village of Tobermory, Ontario, Canada. The shadowed islands on the horizon are part of Canada’s Fathom Five National Marine Park.
Flags of both Canada and the United States fly over the white stone beach leading to the historic wooden lighthouse guarding the entrance to the harbour of the village of Lion’s Head. Lion’s head is situated on the eastern shores of Georgian Bay, about halfway up the Bruce Peninsula in Ontario, Canada. Purchase royalty-free license for this image at Clustershot

The island cross stands tall on Pensacola Beach. The cross and dune have stood firm through many years of hurricanes and no one knows why is has been spared so many times.

Jacob and Sharon Mau Fine Art Photography by my identical twin sister using my camera ~ Karon Melillo d’Vega / 06 May 2009 Haleakala Skyline Trail / Elevation over 9000 feet above sea level. / The Pacific Ocean is far far down below. / South face of the Haleakala Volcano / Kula Forest Reserve / Mamane Trailhead / Haleakala Ridge Trail Junction / Maui Hawai’i Pihanakalani: Gathering place of high supernatural beings ~ place where heaven meets the earth ~ Haleakala is a shield volcano. Built up from the ocean floor by countless eruptions, it was once a mountain that rose several thousand feet higher than today. Haleakala Crater is a large erosional valley at the summit of Haleakala volcano, East Maui. It formed after the rimrock lava flows were erupted around the top of the volcano about 145,000 years ago, give or take about 10,000 years. Haleakala dominates the east side of the Valley Isle and is sacred to the Hawaiian people. The mountain’s face is a mighty wall looming over the valley. Haleakala’s width spans 20 miles, ocean-to-ocean, splitting Maui in two. The constant northwestward movement of the Pacific Plate over a local volcanic “hot spot,” or plume, has produced a series of islands, one after another in assembly line fashion. The result is a chain of volcanic islands stretching from the island of Hawai’i along a southeast – northwest line for 2,500 miles (4,050 kilometers) toward Japan. Maui, one of the younger islands in this chain, began as two separate volcanoes on the ocean floor; time and again, eon after eon, they erupted, and thin new sheets of lava spread upon the old, building and building, until the volcano heads emerge from the sea. Lava, wind-blown ash, and alluvium eventually joined the two by an isthmus or valley, forming Maui, “The Valley Isle.” Finally, Haleakala, the larger eastern volcano, reached its greatest height. Several hundred years have passed since the last volcanic activity occurred within the crater. This stillness on Maui is attributed by modern geology to the constant northwestward movement of the Pacific Plate. As the oldest islands on the northwest end of the chain have moved farther away from the plume-source of new lava, they have ceased to grow. Habitats in the Park vary from sea level to 10,023 feet: low elevation rainforest, high elevation coldforest, dryland forest, montage bogs, subalpine grassland, subalpine shrubland, alpine cinder desert… When you drive from sea level to 10,023 feet, you drive through as many different life zones as you would if you drove north from central Mexico to Alaska! The exact timing of crater formation probably never will be determined, because the crater likely grew in stages. To recognize that such a short duration, only 30,000 years, is sufficient for extensive erosion is an exciting discovery in our understanding of Hawaiian geology. Large landslides are probably the key to understanding rapid rates of erosion, because they redistribute large amounts of rock quickly. Erosion is an ongoing process, but its rate varies greatly across thousands of years. Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi
As we drove down from the summit of Haleakala on Skyline Drive, here we are entering the dense clouds and fog belt of the Kula Forest Reserve at 6200 feet elevation. This recreation area is 6,200 feet above sea level in the Kula Forest Reserve. Polipoli Springs is an upcountry park with towering trees and stunning views of the Maui lowlands and the neighboring islands of Lana’i and Kaho’olawe. Polipoli Springs is most notable for its mature forest of beautiful Redwood trees and other exotic indigenous Hawaiian trees such as Plum, Cypress, Sugi, towering Eucalyptus, O’hia and Ash. Extensive trail systems transverse the reserve. Thousands of feet above sea level, there are no mosquitoes in the area, but the temperatures can get quite cold. Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi

I came across these two shells on the lonely beach. It’s so unusual to find such intact shells and it was so perfect on the desolate beach this day, I thought this was the perfect time to catch a memory of a beautiful day. I set the white balance on shade so I could get a warm color to the photo. The sand here is snow white normally. I used my 50mm lense, 100 iso and 7 apeture for a shallow depth of field.
