Themes

For this group theme, I had in mind street scenes in which pedestrians are seen in front of compelling backdrops — of posters and murals with models that seem to step out and communicate with the pedestrians. Among friends on Trekearth, Claude Simonin (Clodo) is a master at catching such scenes. I'll start out with a few of my own photos, and integrate the photos of others into the collection. Please, feel free to add.

Photos of people talking, inspired by Gert Holmertz's (holmetz) Small Talk series

Any photograph which depicts a railway station.

One of the most recognizable spots on Malta, the Azure Window, has recently collapsed. You can find more details in THIS ARTICLE.

The aim of this theme is to gather together all TrekEarth photos of this spectacular non-existent rock formation.

Photos that involve arches, whether they are the subject or they provide the frame.

I love traveling! I love airplanes! I love flying! Everytime I fly I take pictures from the window of the planes. They're not the best quality ones, but they show all the beauty of the world as it's seen from the air! Aerial views, bird's eye views... here they are!

My Country is known all over the World because of "SAMBA, SOCCER (Pelé, Zico, Ronaldo), WOMEN (specially naked ones), CARNAVAL, RIO, Corruption, Poverty" - STEREOTYPES! I truly don't like that, specially when I'm abroad! Brazil has tons of problems, THAT'S TRUE, but it's a GIANT and a WEALTHY COUNTRY! I want to post pictures here from that COUNTRY most foreign people have never heard about! I want to show other brazilian "faces", specially positive ones!

De Gooi en Vechtstreek is a region on the border of the Dutch provinces Noord-Holland and Utrecht, consisting of the area het Gooi, characterised by some gentle hills, woods and heath and a number of smaller towns, and de Vechtstreek, located along the river Vecht, known for its stately homes, lakes and lowlands. I have lived in the town of Bussum, which brands itself as the “Heart of het Gooi”, since 2014 and found that the area offers many photo opportunities.

Magerit, ‘land rich in water’. This is how the Arabs called this area on the central plain of the Iberian Peninsula, close to Sierra de Guadarrama, where King Phillip II of Spain later established the royal court. Later on, it grew into the big city that’s come down to us.
