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.

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!!
This week's Covid-19 Adventure and picnic took us to British Columbias Boundary Country and Granby River area. At 45 kilometres north of Grand Forks, British Columbia, is the last crossing of the Grandby River. I gave up on getting down to water level, so I took this shot from the bridge looking down river.
This male eastern bluebird would perch on the same spot outside a nest while the female did her work going in and out with nest building materials.
To get this image, I setup the wifi connection on the camera to link it to my phone. That allowed me to stand back at a distance and wait for the blue bird to return to the spot. It works, but there is a considerable lag, so I wouldn't rely on it if you had to get a shot.
The image was taken in the morning with light reflecting off green brush in the distance. The bird was in the shade, so a flash was used to add some fill light.
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!
Everytime I look at this photo I would like to take a seat to watch and feel the elements. Lanzarote 2022.
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.

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!♥

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.

The church of the monastery was built in 1553-1564 by prince Alexandru Lapusneanu, the son in law of prince Petru Rares, in a idyllic remote forested location and it is a princely cript.
Its thick walls and dense forest around make it very impressive.
The original paintings were lost in the fire during the fights and fire in 1821.
Having finally reached the remote and prized summit of Lurg Mhor I am able to take in its untouched surroundings.

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.
Sarangkot is Ward 18 of Pokhara, Kaski District, Nepal, after it was merged into the city in 2015. It is a popular tourist destination for those who arrive in Pokhara. At the 1991 Nepal census it had a total population of 5,060 with 1,010 individual households.
The Ward is located on Sarangkot, a hill on the western side of Pokhara with an altitude of 1600m. Sarangkot is known for its panoramic Himalayan views of Dhaulagiri, Annapurna and Manaslu. It also provides an expansive view of the city of Pokhara, from the extreme north to the south including Phewa Lake. Tourists drive up the hill to watch the sunrise from the view tower at the top. In recent years, Sarangkot has been called one of the best paragliding locations in the world. The hike up from the Pokhara Baglung highway at Miruwa to Sarangkot takes 90 minutes to 1.5hours.
This captivating scene features the vibrant hues of the morning sky casting a warm glow over the majestic Himalayan mountains.

The weather was not too good during our two day trip but I did manage a few decent shots.
