I watched a great show on BBC Prime the other night - David Attenborough narrating over footage of some of the natural wonders of the world. I was surprised by how many of these actually appeared in photos on travelblog. So here goes:

North America
Yosemite, Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon. Missing: Death Valley, Yellowstone NP.

South America
Moreno Glacier. Missing: Amazon River, Andes, Angel Falls.

Australasia
Uluru, Twelve Apostles. Missing: Mount Cook.

Europe
The Alps.

Asia and Africa
Well for Asia and Africa there were many shown and listed - should try and get a full list - but no photos as yet. Any one been to Victoria falls?

BTW: To post photos that already appear on TravelBlog - find the id - hover your mouse on the photo and look in the status bar (at the bottom of the browser - /Photos/xxxx.html - the xxxx is the id) then type [photo=xxxx] and magically it will appear with all the links :)

The Seven Natural Wonders of the World



 •  Mount Everest
 •  The Great Barrier Reef
 •  The Grand Canyon
 •  Victoria Falls
 •  The Harbor of Rio de Janeiro
 •  Paricutin Volcano
 •  The Northern Lights

I don't know how or who decided that these were the seven - a few of them are shown on travelblog - can anyone fill in the gaps?

I'd love to see the northern lights - aurora borealis - Alaskan Northern Light Photos and Norwegian Northern Lights - plus a few tips to help photography of them - looks like I'll have to visit Alaska or northern Norway sometime.

Yeah - it's about time I updated this thread! I think this was just before the Tibetan leg of your journey. So here goes:

So missing from the original list are; Yellowstone NP USA, Mount Cook NZ, Paricutin Volcano and The Northern Lights - plus a complete list from Asia and Africa - will surf and see what I find later. Full versions of the photos now include the forum code for copy and paste so easier to play this game :)

ps. will keep working on TravelBlog - and thanks :)

The Giant's Causeway along the Antrim Coast in Northern Ireland is a World Heritage Site and is often billed as the eighth wonder of the world. It IS pretty amazing, though my photo doesn't begin to do it justice.
