This is not Mars but some people think it is...
Update:
The winner is Rebecca…who guessed, Coober Pedy, South Australia!
Thanks again to Laurence and his universe. Here’s what he had to say:
“It is an awesome place, somewhat reminiscent of Mos Eisley, only without so much scum and villainy, plus nearly everyone lives underground to escape the heat. The surrounding landscape and attractions are also surreal, with names such as the Moon Plain and The Painted Desert – it’s not hard to see why it was chosen as the set for Pitch Black, which is set on an alien planet.”
Rebecca gets the prize this week. So check out Cadence: Planning and Design, it’s not travel blog but they can help you design a peaceful living environment. Sounds nice to me ![]()
Welcome to the weekly Where in the World? Travel Photo Contest! We have a great list of travel photos and bloggers lined up to challenge your world travel knowledge each and every Friday.
If you’re new or never bothered to actually read what I write, each week I post a beautiful picture (at least I think so) either from a featured travel blog guest (see below for details on how to guest post) or from my own travels and you guess where it is. Due to the popularity of featuring other travel bloggers I plan to hots other peoples’ travels and photos for as long as there is interest (get in touch!).
This week’s photo comes from Laurence over at Finding The Universe, you’ll have to check out his site to see if he’s found it or not yet.
The first person to guess where this picture was taken (Country, Name!) will win a link back to their blog and all the fame and glory associated! Congratulations to Jerick who won last weeks contest by knowing Iran’ 33 arch bridge in one of the closest races we have had yet.
Ff you have bothered to read all the way down here you deserve a hint: film set.
Leave your guess and recent post in the comment section below (comment luv should take care of the second part).
Yes, the prizes heavily favor the blogging and travel geeks amongst us. If you don’t have a website, then leave your favorite website or better yet a charity that deserves attention. Good luck!
Guesses aside, all comments are welcome!
Let’s invite as many people as possible! Please consider tweeting or sharing on Facebook
Be a Guest Photographer
If you’re looking to help increase the visibility of your blog, drive more traffic, or just share your pretty pictures then why not be a guest photographer for Photo Contest Friday on Todd’s Wanderings! This is no longer as new feature as we have had 5 weeks of guest posters and have the next 3 weeks filled already!
If you’re interested in having your photograph featured then send me an e-mail through my Todd’s Wanderings Contact Page with the Subject line: Photo Contest Friday. Don’t forget to tell me which site your coming from and I’ll be in touch and explain how to send the photo. Keep in mind that your photo should be awesome!
The photograph should be your own and should have a few small clues in the photo to help the reader out if they’ve never been there (no, I don’t follow this last rule myself all the time…but it’s my website). I’ll link to your page and talk you up as the guest poster. I can be very flattering when I want to be.
Oh, and it goes without saying, but I’ll say it anyway. You should be an independent travel blogger. I love helping the little guy…or gal.

This reminds me of the ant mounds we saw throughout the Australian Outback. They dotted the landscape and some were incredibly high!

Seen this before. But I wouldn’t remember where the location is if not because of the previous commenter :p (Cooper Pedy – OZ) Aren’t they like… art pieces?
jill- Jack and Jill Travel The World´s recent [type] ..Why Picasa Makes Us Do A Happy Dance
Kinda like art pieces – in a filmic sort of way
Looks like mars indeed!!
Am unaware of the place but very interesting place it must be:)

You know, Mars isn’t that far wrong either, given what they are for
Laurence´s recent [type] ..Travel- my selfish pursuit
Location: Coober Pedy, South Australia.
Extra points if I name the movie?
I’m more than happy to give out Todd’s points on his behalf… go for it
Laurence´s recent [type] ..Travel- my selfish pursuit
Sure, more points for you! It’s easy to give out imaginary points
Nice Job Rebecca and you win the prize!
Looks like termite mounds in Australia’s outback…
Erja
Zimbabwe? These look like hollowed-out termite mounds.
They do look like termite mounts, which I guess was part of the idea, based on what they actually are

They do look like termite mounds – and given their purpose, that’s not a bad guess
Laurence´s recent [type] ..Travel- my selfish pursuit
Tough … I would have to guess: Australia! Yes, this could be the Australian Outback! I’ve seen strange things out there! This would fit in as well.
There certainly are strange things in the Australian outback
You are close at least!
“one of the closest races we have had yet.”
Yeah, rub it in my face…
Of course today, I have no clue whatsoever (Australia?), so I’ll pass.
