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.

Thank you for comments and views!

In a relationship, the most epic fight is over control .. I mean, the TV remote control XD

 

Whoever obtains it will have the power to choose the movie on Netflix, and believe me... it´s a battle that I don´t intend to lose.

Colonnade aka Five Hole Arch (more like a spacious 5-hole cave) is a remote location in the San Rafael Desert. From there you have an excellent view of the gorges of the Green River valley up to the Manti La Sal mountains in the background.

Advantages of living in such a place

Disadvantages

Rachakonda Fort --

Once this remote hamlet was the capital of the Velma Kings during the 14th and 15th centuries. It is said the Velmas were cursed by a woman that they would never again rule. People believe that it is the result of the curse the Rachakonda Fort absolute ruin today! Yet, the masonry wall of the fort screams out its glory and story!!

My family have lived here for 60 years. I had heard about a patch of Rhododendrons that grew in the middle of nowhere, but never seen them.

So yesterday, we went over the hill (the one I look out onto) and far away, in search of this patch.

We were too late for the main flowering period, but there were still some flowers looking good.

I am still astounded by how big that patch of Rhododendrons is (all white, but looking like there are different varieties). It was a real thrill to see them ... next year I will be visiting earlier!

I couldn't get a distance shot that showed the whole area, but there's one in the first comment box to give an idea of the scale.

 

Road from Vik to Bergen, Norway

As we descend from Glas Maol and Creag Leacach, I came across the Meall Odhar cafe at the top of one of the chair lifts, just set very remotely among the mountains of the Scottish Highlands.

 

Glas Maol (meaning the grey green hill) is my 18th Munro and stands at a height of 1068 meters (3504 feet). Creag Leacach (meaning 'the slabby crag') is my 19th and stands at 987 meters (3238 feet).

Everytime I look at this photo I would like to take a seat to watch and feel the elements. Lanzarote 2022.

My much used remote to trigger the camera shutter from a distance.

We drove to Zion National Park for the day. The park was so crowded with people it seemed that everyone else had the same idea. It probably seemed even more crowded to us because we have spent so much time in remote places recently. We decided to leave but on the way out happened to snag a parking spot along the road. Then we dropped down into the wash which runs below the road. We hiked a few miles along the wash and ran into very few people, most of them stayed up near the road. We found several lovely slot canyons.

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!

Imagine, living on a tiny, remote island, surrounded by sea water, and mountains that blocked out the sun........how ecstatic you would be when the sun finally climbs high enough to peep over the mountain top and spread a few warming rays down on your little island.

 

It's been dark for so long, fog or heavy rain laden clouds, overcast. weeks and weeks, no sun. Very short days.

 

I was out yesterday, after the fog lifted and saw the sun briefly but noticed that in many places the sun didn't even get above the tree tops. Where it did it was beautiful. Not long to the winter solstice now and we can start to look forward to longer days again. And pray for something better.

Riva Valdobbia, Valsesia. Italy.

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.

Counts as gym class, as long as I take a pic and a short video.

 

Looks warm, right? Nope; that is ice water.

 

Sorry, there are lots of mountains to see but I am limited right now to what I can get to within 10 or 15 minutes -- just can't be away from the house very long.

Last light of the day is hitting Coal Mine Canyon, on the border between the Hopi and Navajo Indian Reservations in the vast desert of northeast Arizona. Coal Mine Canyon is a long way from any famous attraction and is not signposted in any way yet has become quite well known because of the amazingly colorful formations that line the upper end of the ravine. The canyon is one of many remote, little-visited sites in the Southwest where the main interest comes from the detail of the rock, the colors, forms and textures of the eroded sandstone.
