Just off the coast of Port Campbell National Park in Victoria, Australia, stands a collection of limestone stacks known as The Twelve Apostles

  

This area has become a popular tourist destination for its beauty. Erosion, which created these stacks, also destroys them. On July 3, 2005 a 165 foot stack collapsed, leaving only eight, which can be seen in the center of the shot.

The small town of Atrani, with a population near 1000, is located on Italy's beautiful Amalfi coast.

The town in southwest Italy, one hour south of Naples, is perched up above lonely boats and the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean. Sunbathers on the beach enjoy a mild September afternoon.
