Persepolis A Glimpse into Ancient Persian Splendor Persepolis is an archaeological marvel that offers a captivating window into the grandeur of ancient Persia. Located in present-day Iran, Persepolis stands as a testament to the architectural prowess, artistic finesse, and cultural richness of the Persian Empire. Constructed during the reign of Darius the Great in the 6th century BCE, Persepolis served as the ceremonial capital of the Achaemenid Empire, one of the world's most powerful and expansive empires at the time. The city was meticulously designed and meticulously crafted over several generations, symbolizing the opulence and authority of the Persian kings. Persepolis was not only a symbol of political power but also a hub of cultural exchange. Scholars, artists, and craftsmen from different regions of the empire converged in Persepolis, contributing to its rich artistic heritage. The carvings, sculptures, and murals found in the ruins depict scenes from daily life, religious rituals, and mythical narratives, providing valuable insights into the beliefs and customs of the time. In recognition of its outstanding universal value, Persepolis was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1979. Efforts have been made to preserve and restore the site, allowing future generations to marvel at its splendor and gain a deeper understanding of the history and legacy of ancient Persia. Visiting Persepolis is an immersive experience that transports visitors back in time to a bygone era of grandeur and magnificence. It serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of the Persian Empire and the remarkable achievements of its people. Persepolis stands as a cultural treasure, inviting us to appreciate the beauty of the past and reflect on the interconnectedness of civilizations throughout history. 📷 @daaaniiaaal

W H E N T H E O C E A N holds the sun a little longer. Golden hour hits different when you’re this far off the map. ✨

No crowds. No noise. Just the sun, the sea, and a quiet island heartbeat that reminds you what really matters. Sunset on Buka Buka Island — where time slows, and the sky puts on a show just for you. 🌅

Grateful for places that help us reconnect — with nature, with stillness, with ourselves. I will never forget this hidden paradise @reconnect.island 🐠🌴🌺

We had our civil ceremony just over two weeks ago - so I guess it’s safe to say we’re legally married 😁💍 Currently soaking in the magic of our mini-moon in Bhutan 🇧🇹 and reliving every moment of our intimate day through these photos 🥰 Forever grateful to @sarah.teng for capturing 4700 (!!) memories we’ll treasure forever, and to @tinalee for another 200+ moments 🥲 Still can’t believe how beautifully it all came together.

Food tour of Italy? 🇮🇹🍕🍦🍷🍝 Before anyone comes at me… *obviously* there is more to Italian culture than the food. We very much enjoyed visiting museums, medieval villages, cathedrals, and meeting local people. Food will always be a big part of travel for me and it doesn’t get much better than Italy for delicious meals! Can you relate? Share your favorite travel food moment in the comments ⤵️ 📍 Florence, Tuscan countryside, Montepulciano, Siena, Pienza 🇮🇹 #italytravel #florence #tuscany #eurosummer

A throwback to last years trip to Sweden. A gorgeous country with a ton of potential for landscape photography! With exceptionally early mornings and exploration of beautiful locations I got a few different photos. Especially a flight above this super cool area at sunset with my drone delivered some gorgeous photos and a sunrise at 3:30 from the top of a mountain was totally worth the hike and lack of sleep! Visual flow is one of many compositional tools I cover in my ebook on composition in landscape photography. With minimal text and tons of examples it easy to read. There is a link in my bio. Happy learning 🤓 and if you enjoyed that, you’ll love the follow up too!
