A lava lake vulcano in Africa, early morning.
In the Danakil Depression, one of the hottest and lowest altitude regions of Earth, the unbearable heat on the surface comes both from the scalding desert Sun and the fiery Erta Ale volcano. One in a handful volcanoes in the world where the center spectacle is lava lake, a mesmerizing pool of hot melting rock that makes one oblivious to the extreme danger of standing a couple of meters away from its edge. © Adriano Neves - @acseven - adrianon.com - All Rights Reserved

Night photograph Milky Way and starry sky over Alqueva's DARK SKY reserve, Portugal, Alentejo
On a night showered by the Persoid meteors, the Milky Way and occasional slow winds made for a a far better subject to photograph. The region is worth a visit for those interested in astrophotography.
Salt miner caravan of the Danakil Depression desert in the Afar region of Ethiopia - Panoramic photograph by Adriano Neves © adrianon.com @acseven
A remarkable cultural heritage of the Afar Region of Ethiopia (African continent), a region with one of the harshest environments on Earth, and a true testament to human resilience: the salt miner caravan of the Danakil Depression desert is as impressive as it is humbling. These miners and camel herders make daily travels to the middle of the salt flats and collect blocks of it under extreme conditions, to be sold for amounts so small that are almost incomprehensible to most of us. But the most impressive of this entire ordeal is knowing that it will carry on tomorrow and the day after, day after day. Much like Sisyphus' Ordeal.

The Afar are a nomadic ethnic group that dominate the regions with the same name: the Afar Region of Ethiopia. Depending mostly of livestock and cattle, this hard enduring people live in what is probably one of the most extreme environments in the world, the Danakil Depression desert.
A young Mursi woman sends out a sharp glance while the Sun nears the horizon at the of the day in the Omo Valley, Ethiopia. Blurred out of focus the shoulder hints some irregular bumps, in fact skin scar adornments. These lead to an inset ear lobe ring and finally to more appeasing body paint patterns and neck collar beads.

Reflection of the Torres del Paine mountain peaks over the Laguna Amarga lagoon, in Patagonia, Chile - Travel Photography by Adriano Neves
Pure bliss is something unobtainable, but every now and then comes a moment where you feel you're almost grasping it. Just like that gush of wind breaking the mirror like image on this photograph, of the Torres del Paine mountain peaks reflect over Laguna Amarga. But in the end, who needs perfection, really?

Framed view at dusk of the Louvre's glass pyramid, in Paris, France
Blue hour view of the Louvre's central plaza, in Paris, France. It's a funny thing that happens in these tourist packed locations - once you set up a tripod you'll get a lot of people pointing their cameras and phones at the same thing!
Dramatic freeze motion photograph of an helicopter in front of a giant waterfall - Adriano Neves - @acseven - adrianon.com
Last 28th may a hiker slipped on a wet slab of rock at the base of the Upper Yosemite Falls stream, being flushed about 30 meters (100 feet) down the rapids, but still able to hang to a large boulder and resting on top of it waiting for rescue. I was hiking the Yosemite Falls trail when the heli search and rescue team approached the falls. While I shot the scene (fallen hiker wasn't visible from my viewpoint) the heli pulled back and hiking ground rescue teams hurried past me to the location. Luckily, he ended up being rescued, alive. And I got a chopper in front of a huge waterfall!!

After almost 3 hours of hiking with all the gear on our backs, we were presented with this dramatic sunset, clouds were burning up, almost spewing lava like.

Nature has its ways of making us feel little, but nothing can quite compare to the sheer and brute forces of volcanoes. In the middle of the Afar Region (Ethiopia), Erta Ale reveals itself as a pulsating pathway to the depths beneath our feet, a molten lava portal to the inner core.

Inside of an glacier ice cave, in Iceland - Travel Photography - © Adriano Neves - acseven - adrianon.com
The ice walls were soft and smooth to touch. Snow had delicately piled up from vertical openings on the glacier, leaving several cones inside the cave. The sounds of water flowing around us were reverberated on the ice walls.
Treacherous flash floods rush down the Antelope Canyons and smoothly erode the rock walls, leaving a an awesome natural monument to appreciate.

He was not minding anything else other than his stroll - either the ice cold waters nor the slippery ice - walking as if possessed.

Northern lights mystically fuming over a cemetery and and a small chapel, near Reykjavik. It's brilliant how the tombstones and crosses are all lit up, creating this insanely incredible light show.
