Remote and harsh landscape. Hard light. Farm surrounded by peat bogs.

The photographers were stood well away watching the mist beginning to lift on Derwent Water in the Lake District National Park. They were operating the cameras on remote control as the sun was just beginning to have an impression on the mist.

 

Derwent Water is one of the principal bodies of water in the Lake District National Park, measuring approximately 3 miles (4.8 km) long by 1 mile (1.6 km) wide and is some 72 feet (22 m) deep.

Because of the remote nature of the Karrak Lake field camp, wee used a Single Otter aircraft on skied/wheels to initially set it up in the spring. All our gear was brought in for the summer season which in this case lasted for 53 days. When they dismantled the camp the gear was removed using a float plane.

 

One thing you had to realize that you needed to plan so that you had everything you could possibly need as there was no going out to the local store to pick up something.

 

We arrived at the camp site in late April when there was still snow on the ground and picked up in late June when the river was open and they could land a float plane to pick us up.

  

We did have radio communication in case of emergency.

 

It was an interesting time and you learned to spend your time well so there was no time to get bored. We had 24 hours of daylight which would enable you to go photograph late in the evening.

 

May/June, 1976.

A remote 13th Century grade 1 listed medieval sailors chapel named Eglwys y Grog ( Church of the Holy Cross). It has had various restorations over the centuries.

Those who think that Iceland’s been ruined by tourists just need to venture further north. the land of otherworldly vistas, air travel-disrupting volcanoes and polite, stylish Vikings – already feels remote.

In Westfjords, a lonely peninsula that juts out like a thumb into the Denmark Strait toward Greenland, it seems even more so. Here the weather can change in a heartbeat – sunny afternoons quickly swallowed by icy winds and low clouds filled with fat snowflakes.

It’s six hours by road from Reykjavik, the Icelandic capital, but be warned: Driving the twisting routes of Westfjord’s wind- and snow-whipped mountain passes can be hair-raising.

For those who make the journey (a four-wheel-drive vehicle is recommended, as is a sense of adventure) the region’s natural features, eating options and activities are worth the white-knuckle ride. the photo was taken by Dynjandi waterfall

Farm buildings in the snow at Kildale.

Partway out to Mullach na Dheiragain from Sgurr nan Ceathreamhnan. MnD is the darker peak along the ridge in the middle-distance. (Carn Eige and Mam Sodhail are the peaks to the right). This felt like a long out-and-back walk in a VERY remote place, made all the more fun by the twisty rocky path over intervening summit Carn na Con Dhu.

 

A 28 mile day in total. 14 on bike (cycle in and back; Loch Affric car park along the loch's south shore to the Allt Coire Ghaidheil bridge approx 1.6 miles beyond Strawberry Cottage) and 14 on foot - hike up to Bealach Coire Ghaidheil, over An Socach to Sg nan C'nan, out to MnD and back, cut across Coire nan Dearcag, down to Alltbeithe Youth Hostel and walk back to bike. Do-able in a single day; I think it was around 11 hours. Fantastic journey into a remote area.. but tiring!

Thanks to a tip from a fellow traveler, we had a few rare encounters with elk during our recent trip to western South Dakota. The rut was mostly over, so the bulls were hanging out in their bachelor groups. This group of eight was the most we've ever seen together.

 

They were several hundred yards from the road, so this is a long-distance shot, cropped quite a bit.

 

We found them in a remote area of Wind Cave National Park.

The mist was rising off the creek, which created areas of soft focus amongst an otherwise crisp shot. 20171210BullCreekPsDxoLr4

After Union Pacific purchased C&NW I tried to shoot North Western units when I had the opportunity, such as this image on the turntable at Superior (Itasca) in August 1996.

From last weekend's walk in western area of Dartmoor. After reaching Hare Tor, the views open up to reveal a mostly deserted Dartmoor landscape. Fur Tor in the distance is apparently the most remote tor in all of Dartmoor and very high on our wish list!

Last sun rays over Sveinstindur in the deep highland area of Iceland called Langisjór.

It seems to have taken me an age to get around to shooting at this location despite passing it several times going to various places.

A very overcast day provided decent conditions for this sort of image and a chance to test out a 15 stop filter than I had yet to use.

 

I don't know who calculates the exposure times for the filters on the LEE system but I've never had one yet that is anything like the given times on the exposure sheets , this one is no different and I basically don't bother with the sheets and work solely off the histogram as it saves time in the long run despite adding minutes extra on top of the 'guide exposure', this one ending up being nearly 8 minutes long with the guide suggesting around 4 minutes from memory.

 

This is a really beautiful spot and definitely one I'll come back to again in different conditions, the snow on the tops was still visible and the tree totally bare giving a really stark feel to the image along with the long exposure. This tree must have had a good few batterings up here during Winter but as the title of the image indicates, it remains resolute and defiant. If you do visit the food in the nearby pub at Balmaha is fantastic after a cold morning stood on the shore here..

A pair of young Elephant Seal bulls practice their battle skills in advance of the breeding season at Año Nuevo State Preserve. Beginning in December the main herd starts to arrive including the humongous alpha males who will do battle for the right to breed. On this day there were a few hundred seals on the beach. By January there will be up to 10,000 seals who come here to mate, to molt, and to give birth.

 

The likelihood of these two young bulls mating with a female is quite remote. In order to climb the breeding ladder, they would need to win many battles against alpha males weighing in the excess of 2500 lbs. But who knows, the need to breed is strong in these beautiful animals. You can witness the breeding season in full swing on docent led tours, just don't get too close. You may end up in some alpha male's harem.

Not as remote as some but remote enough.

'The Iron Pot is a small flat sandstone island with an area of 1.27 ha in south-eastern Australia. It is part of the Betsey Island Group, lying close to the south-eastern coast of Tasmania around the entrance to the River Derwent. It is the site of Iron Pot Lighthouse Tasmania's first lighthouse.'

Xichong Beach (西涌) is one of several beaches located in the Mainland Chinese city of Shenzhen bordering Hong Kong.

 

It is one of the larger beaches in Shenzhen, but its rather remote location often makes it less crowded compared to other more well known and accessible beaches such as Dameisha Beach for example.

This photo is from a backcountry slot canyon deep within the Colorado Plateau. Waterfalls and pools were abundant and the water temperature was perfect with our wetsuits on. This canyon was totally worth the long hike in. Make sure you get out and explore your world!

My son is a vegan and eats as much raw food as possible. I love the way he displays his shopping on our oak cabinet. This arrangement begged to be recorded and I needed to act quickly before most of it was eaten!

 

This is a two shot panorama stitched using Lightroom, a remote flash was used to light the composition.

Ci sono momenti, all'alba, in cui si vede nettamente il confine fra il regno del sole e quello delle ombre. Le nuvole sospese nel mezzo di due mondi, sembrano la porta per entrare in un mondo fatto di sola luce.

Went with a friend last Saturday to Ightham Mote, a National Trust property in a rather remote location to the east of Sevenoaks. We found it to be not that well signposted (the way we came), but it was well worth finding. Built around 1320, it's the most complete medieval moated manor house in England. This together with some lovely grounds and gardens make for a great day out.
