Green tranquility

Bled –> Slovenia

The landscape in the north-west corner of Slovenia amongst the Julian Alps and within the Triglev National Park. As you can see, there's a blanket of trees - unsurprising considering 62% of the country is woodland.

City sights

Kathmandu –> Nepal

The view over Kathmandu from Swayambhunath, a religious site in the north-west corner of the city.

The view from El Capiro

Santa Clara –> Cuba

The view over Santa Clara from El Capiro. This was one of Che Guevara's lookout positions shortly before launching the final attack of the revolution - a raid on one of Bastita's trains, in Santa Clara, December 1958. Bastita relinquished power shortly afterwards.

Solu-Khumbu (Everest)

Kathmandu –> Nepal

The nearest I'm likely to get to topping Everest!

Mountains and Mennagio

Bellagio –> Italy

Menaggio and its dramatic backdrop as seen from Bellagio, on Lake Como.

Rock bottom!

Grasse –> France

Natha beside a rock pool in gorges near to St Vallier de Thiey.

Les Gorges du Verdon

Les Gorges du Verdon –> France

Gorge-ous

Les Gorges du Verdon –> France

The dramatic landscape at Les Gorges du Verdon. The canyon isn't on the scale of Arizona's Grand Canyon, but it's impressive nonetheless.

Chitwan sunset

Chitwan –> Nepal

A beautiful sunset looking out from the village of Ghatgain over the Rapti and beyond to Chitwan National Park.

Valle d'Aosta

Aosta –> Italy

The valley-town of Aosta at sunset amongst alpine peaks. The most well-known - Mont Blanc - is behind the hill to the right of this picture.
