To travel to the remote Kimberly region of north west Australia, one of the worlds last frontiers, is an adventure in itself. In the absence of pollution this reflective mangrove scene is filled with intense colors.The rock formation the background is a part of deposits in the Kimberly that may date back to 1.75 billion years ago by major river systems that flowed from north to south across the whole region.

de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breitenstein_(Schwäbische_Alb)
Der Breitenstein ist ein 811,2 m ü. NHN[1] hohes Felsplateau in Baden-Württemberg. Es liegt nahe dem Dorf Ochsenwang an der Kreisstraße 1220 auf der Gemarkung der Gemeinde Bissingen an der Teck. Der Felsvorsprung besteht aus Weißjuragestein und liegt am Nordrand der Schwäbischen Alb direkt am Albtrauf.
Von dem ca. 200 Meter breiten Plateau des Breitensteins aus bietet sich ein von Vegetation nicht behinderter weiter Blick auf das ca. 400 Meter tiefer gelegene, nördlich der Schwäbischen Alb gelegene Gebiet – im Nordwesten bis nach Stuttgart – weshalb er ein beliebter Ausflugsort ist und auf nahezu allen Karten der Gegend verzeichnet ist.
Auf dem Plateau Breitenstein befindet sich eine Bronzetafel, in der die Lage und Entfernung der von dort sichtbaren Orte verzeichnet ist.
Der Breitenstein ist sowohl als geschütztes Geotop und unter dem Namen Felspartie des Breitenstein auch als flächenhaftes Naturdenkmal ausgewiesen.

The Breitenstein is a rocky plateau 811.2 m above sea level[1] in Baden-Württemberg. It is located near the village of Ochsenwang on the district road 1220 in the district of Bissingen an der Teck. The rocky outcrop is made of Weißjura stone and lies on the northern edge of the Swabian Alb directly on the Alb ridge.
From the approx. 200-metre-wide plateau of the Breitenstein, there is a wide view, unobstructed by vegetation, of the area approx. 400 metres below, to the north of the Swabian Alb - as far as Stuttgart in the northwest - which is why it is a popular place for excursions and is marked on almost all maps of the area.
There is a bronze plaque on the Breitenstein plateau that lists the location and distance of the places visible from there.
The Breitenstein is designated both as a protected geotope and, under the name Felspartie des Breitenstein, also as an areal natural monument.
Spent some time last week in the remote wilderness of north west Tasmania. What an amazing part of the world.

During the boat trip from Bergen (Norway) to Stavanger, we passed this remote place, with a little light on it. Must be relaxing, but maybe also a bit lonesome living here. Enjoy your lazy Sunday!
My much used remote to trigger the camera shutter from a distance.

I wanted to say a few words about this capture.
First of all, modeling with me is my very good friend Enanito Verde. Unfortunately Enanito wasn't able to continue on this platform after Flickr enforced their drastic policies this past spring and we lost his wonderful work here. However, you can still see his creations at Enanito Verde on Slushe and Enanito Verde on Twitter. Thank you so much Enanito. You're awesome babes!♥
Secondly, I have to confess that this one's not totally my brainchild. I actually ran across the artwork that inspired this one over a year ago. And when I wanted to do something comical for the Holst & Holst Gallery I thought of it, but I could not find it anywhere. I knew I'd saved it but I could not find it. I was able to remember enough about it to create my own version of it with a little twist that I thought was cute and funny.
So as I was about to post it this morning, I decided to try to find the original image one more time, and I found it! That said, I'm posting a link to a gyazo I made of the original. I do not know the artist's work really. I'm sure someone here may. I like the image though. Cheers!♥
Remember the days where the city was bustling with people and activity? These days it’s rather more isolated and remote… In some sense, this is the new remote ways of working.

This loch is less well known in Scotland. It is located well up a single track road. It was a brilliant day to be here as the clouds were racing by. I have passed the signpost on any occasions so I was glad to finally see this beautiful loch.

The remote mountain peak named Punta Carestia, 2.979m (9,774ft), on the watershed between the two regions of Piemonte and Valle D’Aosta; the long ridges of the mountain and the pastures of the Settlement called Alpe Maccagno are ccovered by the first snow of the year.

Part of the main staircase of Woodchester Mansion (nr. Stroud), a 19th Century Victorian Gothic Masterpiece mysteriously abandoned mid-construction in 1873. Hidden in a secluded Cotswold valley, it is untouched by time and the modern world. This Grade 1 Listed Building has been saved from dereliction, but will never be completed. The carvings in Woodchester Mansion are among the finest of their kind in the World. A wonderful place to visit as you can see quite clearly in places how it was built.....a stunning and unusual building indeed!!

The bumpy and dusty end of Forest Road (FR) 163 in southern Wyoming leads you to a concrete slab where you can launch your boat into the Flaming Gorge Reservoir (further left past the photo). In the distance you can see the mountains in northern Utah below the dreamy, early morning clouds. The tributary to the right leads you to Briggs Reservoir back near the highway. There wasn't a soul in sight as we enjoyed the remote beauty here.

So remote that I can't remember exactly where this is! I think that it is probably in Lunedale on the B6276 between Brough and Middleton-in-Teesdale, but I could easily be wrong!
It was certainly wild countryside even on a relatively nice day of sunshine and showers. It must be so bleak in the depths of winter.

Memories hiking the northern part in the fell mountains. Summer light still present here, taken in August.
A nine hour drive from Vancouver and you arrive in Prince George, another hour and half you arrive at Anzac BC, another 45 minute drive East through the Rockies along an out of service forest road you arrive at the siding at Table on the former electrified BCRail Tumbler Ridge branch line. After the wires were torn down and the BCR was acquired by CN, not many if any at all have ventured into the Northern Rockies to see operations on the Tumbler subdivision.
After getting a heads up from a CN employee that we befriended along the way that a loaded coal train was departing the Quintette mine in Tumbler Ridge, we set up by the catenary poles that once held up the wires for electric trains at Table well in advance, as trains are sparse and we were hoping to see something on this line.
Not too long after arriving, we could hear the faint echo of the train exiting the 5.6 mile long Table Tunnel over 15 miles away. Just minutes later we saw the headlights in the distance and were soon being powdered in coal dust as the 100+ car train flew by at 35mph. Once the train cleared we would make the long trek back to Prince George, happy to shoot a train on one of the most undershot crossings of the Rocky Mountains by any railroad.
