17 Mile Drive, California, USA

 17 Mile Drive is a scenic road through Pacific Grove and Pebble Beach on the Monterey Peninsula in California. Most of it drives along the Pacific Coastline.

The road provides vistas of white sand beaches and golf courses.

Chief among the scenic attractions is the Lone Cypress Tree, a salt-pruned Monterey Cypress tree and the Seal and Birds Rock.

Enjoy these pictures taken by me.

Mahabaleshwar

Mahabaleshwar, as we Indians know, is an extremely popular hill station situated in the Western Ghats, Satara Dist. of Maharashtra.
The average elevation of this evergreen hillstation is 4439 feet (1373 meters) with the highest peak called Wilson Point at 4718 feet from the sea level.
River Krishna has its source at Mahadev Temple, Old Mahabaleshwar and so also the rivers Koyna, Venna, Savitri and Gayatri have their sources there.
Staying at a resort near the Mahadev Temple, Old Mahabaleshwar, I have shot some pictures of, from and around the resort which I hope all enjoy.
