How very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteSuperb *V* post – great photography! Would love to join in snorkelling in Anse Chastanet! Looks so in*v*iting!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend,
Visiting from Alphabe-Thursday!
The mountains at Pyramid Lake look like a painting...so pretty!
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful indeed. There's nothing like some peace and quiet when on vacation!
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful! You certainly captured the feeling of serenity in each photo... I especially like the daisies and stream at Glacier National Park.
ReplyDeleteThat is some beautiful photography! Love the view through the trees. So pretty and a great angle.
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of camera do you use? It takes exceptional photos!
They are sooo petty places to go. I was guessing as I scrolled down.
ReplyDeleteGot St. Lucia, Montana, and the Mexican coast. We did like you and rented a car in St. Lucia. That scene is very pretty when it comes into view.
(Our car was a Rent-a-wreck with fairly bald tires. They would spin when trying an uphill start so we would have to back down to more level ground and get a running start.)
