This spot is a backpackers' campground about 6 km up the Cascade Fire road in Banff National Park. We skied into the location and back out the same day. This shot is full colour SOOC, taken in December a few years back. I'm staying warm indoors so far this December.
On the wide shot of the panel where this glyph is, Curt mentioned that it reminded him of a backpacker with a hiking pole, hence the name.
I like the little voodoo-looking face mask guy, too.

On a dull and wet day, these backpackers provide some bright colour as they walk in front of one of the oldest trees in the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens. That's the Arthur Wall (1829) in the background.
When you love the wilderness but you’re also ‘indoorsy’. Where do you fall on the spectrum?
This is a forced perspective shot with a small diorama sitting on a picnic table at Fort Rock State Park. Pure serendipity that the dirt on my dio matched the natural surrounding soil so well.

They would then look at you in the eyes and ask : "What do you see?"
Can't wait for your answers.

Typical scenes from an airport.
People resting, waiting, hurrying.
Stressed, excited, jetlagged.
Waiting for whats up to come.

Located: Gili Trawangan Island, Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia
Gili Trawangan Island is the largest of the Gili Islands, located to the northwest of Lombok Island, West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. It is only 3 km wide and 2km long, with the population not exceeding 1,500 people. This is the most developed tourist area among all the islands, with a few great beaches, hotels, pubs and entertainment facilities. There are no automobiles on the island, and local people use bikes or special small carriages driven by horses.

Canyonlands National Park is a U.S. National Park located in eastern Utah near the city of Moab and preserves a colorful landscape eroded into countless canyons, mesas and buttes by the Colorado River, the Green River, and their respective tributaries. The rivers divide the park into four districts: the Island in the Sky, the Needles, the Maze and the rivers themselves. While these areas share a primitive desert atmosphere, each retains its own character. The park covers 527.5 square miles (1,366 km2). Canyons are carved into the Colorado Plateau by the Colorado River and Green River. Author Edward Abbey, a frequent visitor, described the Canyonlands as "the most weird, wonderful, magical place on earth—there is nothing else like it anywhere."
Canyonlands is a popular recreational destination. Over 400,000 people visited the park in 2008. The geography of the park is well suited to a number of different recreational uses. Hikers, mountain bikers, backpackers, and four-wheelers all enjoy traversing the rugged, remote trails within the Park. Rafters and kayakers float the calm stretches of the Green River and Colorado River above the confluence. Below the confluence Cataract Canyon contains powerful whitewater rapids, similar to those found in the Grand Canyon.
The Island in Sky district, with its proximity to the Moab, Utah area, attracts the majority (59 percent) of park users. The Needles district is the second most visited, drawing 35 percent of visitors. The rivers within the park and the remote Maze district each only account for 3 percent of park visitation.
Political compromise at the time of the park's creation limited the protected area to an arbitrary portion of the Canyonlands basin. Conservationists hope to complete the park by bringing the boundaries up to the high sandstone rims that form the natural border of the Canyonlands landscape.
