This is the last photo in a year-long streak: I posted a total of 104 photos during the last 365 days, averaging twice a week. I am very proud to have completed the challenge I set for myself for 2025. Just like in this photo, I wave goodbye to 2025. Onwards to 2026's challenges! #analog #photo

When I visited Grand Canyon National Park, I noticed a large chasm, spanning many kilometers, with water at the bottom. I suspect that is the reasoning behind the name of the park. #analog #mediumformat #zenza #bronica #portra #arizona #grandcanyon #nationalpark #national #park

The background reveals a hazy, distant view of the canyon's far reaches, with mesas and buttes fading into the horizon. The lighting suggests it is either morning or late afternoon, casting a soft glow over the landscape. At the bottom, a caption reads "Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona, USA".

I took this photo 10 months ago, during the last day of operations of the Coimbra-A rail station. Nowadays, no tracks and overhead wires exist, as the rail connection to the main station of Coimbra is being replaced by a much better system, under the name of Metro Mondego. #photography #rail #past

The image shows a train station platform on a cloudy, overcast day. Multiple railway tracks run parallel to each other, extending into the distance. Overhead, a network of electric wires and poles is visible, indicating that the tracks are electrified. The platform is mostly empty, with a single person walking away in the distance. The station features vintage-style canopies with ornate ironwork, and the ground appears wet, suggesting recent rain. In the background, there is a commercial building, Forum Coimbra, and some greenery on a hillside. At the bottom, a caption reads "Coimbra-A, Coimbra, Portugal".

Triple exposure, but shaky and ghostly. This photo was taken with a very old Olympus 6×6 camera, and the camera would change its position every time the shutter was pressed. #analog #mediumformat #vintage #olympus #6x6

The image depicts a serene park scene featuring a large tree with a wide trunk and sprawling branches. Under the tree, a wooden bench is visible with a triple exposure effect showing three semi-transparent figures of the same person sitting on it.

I took this photo from a parking spot in the Arches National Park. The outcome quickly turned into my favorite photo I ever took. I love the contrast between the crimson gravel, the blue sky, and the green bushes. Oh, and the fade of the desert as it extends into the horizon! #analog #mediumformat

In 2021, Figueira da Foz hosted an F1H2O Grand Prix. In this Formula 1 series, extremely fast powerboats race, capable of doing 0-100 in under two seconds and of reaching speeds over 250km/h. I took a photo of Jonas Andersson's powerboat, moments before he won the Grand Prix. 🚤

The image captures a speedboat racing across a body of water, leaving a trail of white spray in its wake. The boat is predominantly red with a Swedish flag on its side. In the background, there is an industrial dock area with cranes, construction equipment, and a crowd of spectators gathered along the shoreline. A bridge extends across the scene, connecting different parts of the industrial area. The sky is overcast, giving the scene a muted, grayish tone.

The image showcases a unique desert landscape filled with numerous hoodoos—tall, thin spires of rock that protrude from the ground. These formations vary in size and shape, creating an otherworldly terrain. The hoodoos are primarily reddish-brown in color, contrasting with the sandy ground. In the background, a flat-topped mesa rises, adding depth to the scene. The sky above is clear with scattered white clouds, suggesting a bright, sunny day.

I can still vividly remember my arrival at Cedar Breaks National Monument at the beginning of my Southwestern US trip: driving along the scenic SR 14; the rain had just ceased; the scent of juniper trees (not cedar!) filled the air; and the crimson rock formations towered afar 🧡

The image captures a natural landscape featuring dense forest vegetation in the foreground. Tall evergreen trees, such as pines, dominate the scene, interspersed with some deciduous trees. In the background, striking red rock formations rise prominently against a cloudy sky, adding a dramatic contrast to the lush greenery. The overall atmosphere is serene and slightly overcast.

While strolling along the Strawberry Way in Downtown Pittsburgh, I noticed this beautiful mural on the side of an old building. I believe the mural depicts two persons at a hair salon, but I didn't find any hair salon in the area.

The image shows a mural painted on the side of a building in an urban setting. The mural depicts two individuals seated, possibly at a hairdresser. Both figures are wearing red robes and have their heads covered with what appears to be hairdryers The background of the mural is a light blue color with various circular patterns in shades of pink, orange, and purple. The building itself shows signs of wear and age, with visible cracks and peeling paint. The mural is situated in a downtown area, with other buildings visible in the background. At the bottom, a caption reads "Downtown Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, USA".
