6. Sunset over the Red Valley, Cappadocia, Turkey by Bold Travel
7. Awesome shot by Bryony from West Thumb, Wyoming.
I was going to (attempt to) write something poetic and sciencey for this photo. But I have the song ‘catch a falling star and put it in your pocket’ distracting any vaguely intellectual thoughts going on Anyhoo, photo was taken in West thumb, using a 15 second exposure, ISO3200 and most importantly a f1.4. Camera used was a Canon 5DM3 and a wicked good Rokinon lens (f1.4) 24mm to be exact. ▲ Perhaps one day I will stop posting stars over geyser photos, but for the significant future, it’s unlikely. #sorrynotsorry ▲ #milkyway #Rokinon #reflection #fall #landscape #livefolk #letsgetlost #lifeofadventure #outdoors #usinterior #keepitreal #travelstoke #OptOutside #astrophotography #astronomy #space #stars #wild #wanderlust #yellowstone #night #geysers #geology #getoutside #wyoming #Merica #underthestars #teamcanon #TPSAffinity

Nature is the best designer ever. Nature gives us so much. Giant diamonds on a black sand beach. Have we seen anything better? We must respect nature. Mother Nature. A photo posted by Michaël LEVY (@international_photographer_) on

10. Shalee Blackmer at the end of the rainbow in Iceland.
After years of chasing rainbows, I finally found the end…but where’s the gold?! The search will continue around the world in June 2016. Excited to share that after 6 years of saving and 3 jobs, I’m becoming a long-term traveler. The journey is just beginning. #PayPalP2P @passionpassport @paypal Happy Friday!

12. Amanda from Dangerous Business in Albuquerque
What does it look like when hundreds of hot air balloons float over the city of Albuquerque? A bit like this! This is from the International Balloon Fiesta, held last month in New Mexico. It’s an amazing event to witness – and you can read about it in a new post on my blog right now! (Link in profile) A photo posted by Amanda (@dangerousbiz) on
