Colorado Mountain Towns – Last Dollar Road

Known for its beautiful scenery and winding roads, Last Dollar Road is highly recommended as a top choice for enjoying the fall colors. With the help from the stormy weather, I was very lucky to capture a few shots I am happy with.

Colorado Mountain Towns – Telluride

Telluride's gondola is one of the city's highlights. It connects Telluride in the valley with the mountain village at the top of the mountain, offering the possibility of a wide range of activities in the surrounding area. The gondola is the best place to overlook the majestic San Juan mountains and beautiful scenery along its route, and its long running time makes it very convenient for guests visiting both areas.

Galápagos – Playa Las Bachas

The trip to the Galápagos Islands not only allowed us to enjoy the unique natural ecology of the islands in comfortable conditions, but also allowed us to understand Darwin's theory of evolution in a more sensible way. The world is a fascinating place to explore!

Galápagos – Pinnacle Rock

We walked up the wooden walkway and soon reached the top of Isla Batolomé. From here, the most iconic views of the Galápagos are all in front of us. Isla Batolomé is shaped like a pear, with a long stalk that runs deep into Sullivan Bay. The pointy Pinnacle Rock are located on one side and are only then revealed in their full glory.

Galápagos – Chinese Hat

Viewed from the north, Sombrero Chino does look like a hat. But such a hat can be found not only in China, it is also very common in Vietnam and Southeast Asia.

Galápagos – Red Beach

The most unique feature of Rábida island is its fine red sand beach. The white waves lap up against the red sand, a beauty that would be ranked on the top among all the beaches of the world.

Colorado Mountain Towns – Ouray

Like many other mountain towns in Colorado, Ouray has been converted from mining-centric town to a tourists destination. It is a basecamp for the outdoor explorations of the beautiful San Juan Mountains.

Galápagos – Equator Crossing

Punta Vicente Roca, Isabela Island. Punta Vicente Roca is located at the mouth of the seahorse-shaped Isabela Island, with intense volcanic activity. From here, northward, we cross the equator and will return to the central waters of the archipelago.

Galápagos – Chasing Dolphins

Punta Espinoza, Fernandina Island. It was definitely the most spectacular scene we have ever seen. We were surrounded by nearly 100 dolphins and sea lions speeding forward with us. Usually two or three dolphins were swimming side by side, riding the waves, playing and cheering. They burst out of the sea, drawing a beautiful arc, and then submerged in the water.
