Viaduct Harbour, formerly known as Viaduct Basin, is a former commercial harbour on the Auckland waterfront that has been turned into a development of mostly upscale apartments,office space and restaurants. It is located on the site of a formerly run-down area of the Freemans Bay / Auckland CBD waterfront in Auckland, New Zealand. As a centre of activity of the 2000 America's Cup hosted by the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron, as well as the 2022 Rally New Zealand, the precinct enjoyed considerable popularity with locals and foreign visitors.
The Great Northern Basin of Langley Mill, at the junction of the Erewash Canal and the Cromford and Nottingham canals, once bustled with activity. Today, it’s a great family day out with plenty to remind visitors of the canals in their heyday.
Watching boats pass into the Basin via the swingbridge, the only one of seven on the Nottingham Canal that is still working!
Island in the Sky, Canyonlands National Park, Utah. This is a follow-on to the previously posted photo of distant view of Monument Basin. This closeup of a very small area shows some of the monuments in more detail and gives a bit of an idea of the views for travelers on the White Rim Road. Note the white cap rocks on a number of the monuments that are made of the same material as the white rim itself.
I've never been to a place that feels so much like a trip to another planet, except for Antarctica. And I can drive to the Blue Basin! Maybe this spring.
John Day Fossil Beds, Oregon. June, 2016.
Boy, did this photo take some effort! It's the final result from my advanced astro photography training course in Death Valley, USA.
After flying from Australia, I arrived the morning after Death Valley had a years worth of rain in one night. The place was flooded out and the road officially closed but I managed to get through. The only place accessible was Bad Water Basin.
Captured with my Benro Polaris, this 2 row 20 shot tracked panorama was combined in photoshop using techniques I learnt during the course. Given I rarely used photoshop in the past it was a very steep learning curve.
Overall I probably spent 40 hrs on processing but only because I had to read my notes, watch a few videos, research photoshop help, try it on my image and after I finally completed each little step, write my own notes on what I did for future use. Now that I have the knowledge, hopefully it will only take 20hrs next time.
However, I have to say, I'm ecstatic with the result. The final image is 8.16GB and could easily look awesome on a Billboard. Not sure I'll go that far though 😁. Maybe just a local competition. Thanks to Dan Zafra Photography for the tuition and great week.

The lowest lake in Pioneer Basin, looking across towards Third and Fourth Recess in the John Muir Wilderness. I had just arrived to this small lake on a multi-day backpacking trip late afternoon/early evening as a storm cleared. The brook trout were rising and the sun was golden, it was a wonderful display of God's creation.

The Norris Geyser Basin is the hottest geyser basin in the park and is located near the northwest edge of Yellowstone Caldera near Norris Junction and on the intersection of three major faults. The Norris-Mammoth Corridor is a fault that runs from Norris north through Mammoth to the Gardiner, Montana, area. The Hebgen Lake fault runs from northwest of West Yellowstone, Montana, to Norris. This fault experienced an earthquake in 1959 that measured 7.4 on the Richter scale (sources vary on exact magnitude between 7.1 and 7.8; see 1959 Yellowstone earthquake). Norris Geyser Basin is so hot and dynamic because these two faults intersect with the ring fracture zone that resulted from the creation of the Yellowstone Caldera of 640,000 years ago.
It's hard to believe that it was two years ago today that we in Yellowstone and the Tetons, and that we haven't traveled since. Well, scratch 2015, and now we're planning trips later this year and early next year. In fact, we're going to try and catch the bird migration in Arizona next Feb. or March. Maybe Yellowstone again in May 2017 or 2018. Thanks to all who stayed with me and commented over the years.
This is located in western Kansas. See Below.

Big Basin Prairie Preserve Wildlife Area
The Big Basin Prairie Preserve is 1,818 acres of native mixed grass prairie managed by the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks. This area is in the Red Hills region of Kansas. The landscape can generally be described as rolling hills with both level uplands and small canyons. The preserve also includes an intermittent stream , Keiger Creek, which flows through the northeast corner of the preserve, and two non-draining basins that make the preserve topographically and geologically unique.
Big Basin:
Big Basin is a large circular depression. It is about one mile in diameter and about 100 feet deep. The walls of the basin are nearly vertical. Scattered across the floor of Big Basin are a number of small ephemeral ponds that catch and temporarily hold the water that flows into the basin. U.S. Highway 283 bisects Big Basin, with approximately two-thirds of the basin lying east of the road and within the confines of the preserve. The remaining western third of the basin is privately owned.
Little Basin:
The Little Basin is about 280 yards in diameter and 35 feet from rim to floor. Within Little Basin is a small permanent pond known as St. Jacob’s Well. St. Jacob’s Well is a pool of water about 84 feet in diameter that has never been known to go dry. The well has been the subject of many local legends, most associated with the idea that the well was bottomless and/or connected to an underground stream that was capable of washing away anything that fell in the well. The well was also reportedly inhabited by blind fish. Research has shown the well to be roughly funnel shaped and 58 feet deep. No evidence of any underground stream or blind fish has been found.
Big Basin, Little Basin, and St. Jacob’s Well were formed in the recent geological past by a process known as solution-subsidence. This process occurs when surface water gains access and dissolves underground deposits of salt, gypsum, or limestone. The overlaying layers of rock and minerals subside to fill the volume vacated by the water soluble deposits. The process of solution - subsidence is thought to still be occurring, and small depressions have been noted forming within Little Basin.
A view looking back to the northeast while hiking along the trail in the Santa Elena Canyon. With the perceived large dynamic range of this setting, I decided to use five bracketed images and then bring it into Aurora HDR to make a conversion for an HDR tiff image. I later did some post-processing work in Viveza 2 and then CEP 4 for the final image.
For the image itself, I just wanted to capture that peaceful and serene look with the river and the mountainsides all around me as I looked off into the distance while in Big Bend National Park.
Badwater Basin is an endorheic basin in Death Valley National Park, Death Valley, Inyo County, California, noted as the lowest point in North America, with a depth of 282 ft below sea level.
In October 2016 I made a trip out to see the Copper Basin Railway before their imminent demise. Fortunately copper rebounded and that hasn't happened yet. Perhaps I will get another attempt next year.

Think this nicely illustrates the quality of the Canon EOS M3.
Clearly a premier engine in a small body.
This was a handheld shot.
The basin at Bowling Harbour is a location I have been wanting to visit for a while, I spent the evening shooting many different angles.
Such a calming spot, only to be disturbed by the passing trains only yards away from me.

This is a photograph of Blackwall Basin, which is an inland waterway that is part of the Canary Wharf financial district. This scene shows the multitude of house boats that are permanently moored in this area.
