Maroon bells, aspen, colorado
The Maroon Bells are two peaks in the Elk Mountains, Maroon Peak and North Maroon Peak, separated by about half a kilometer (one-third of a mile).[5] The mountains are on the border between Pitkin County and Gunnison County, Colorado, United States, about 12 miles (19 km) southwest of Aspen. Both peaks are fourteeners. Maroon Peak, at 14,163 feet (4317 m), is the 27th highest peak in Colorado. North Maroon Peak, at 14,019 feet (4273 m), is the 50th highest (depending on how they are counted). The view of the Maroon Bells to the southwest from the Maroon Creek valley is commonly photographed. The peaks are located in the Maroon Bells–Snowmass Wilderness of White River National Forest.[6][7] Maroon Bells-Snowmass Wilderness was one of five areas in Colorado designated as wilderness in the original Wilderness Act of 1964. The Wilderness area surrounds the extremely popular Maroon Bells Scenic Area, which is a major access point for Wilderness travel.[8]
Unlike other mountains in the Rockies that are composed of granite and limestone, the Bells are composed of metamorphic sedimentary mudstone that has hardened into rock over millions of years. Mudstone is weak and fractures readily, giving rise to dangerously loose rock along almost any route. A US Forest Service sign on the access trail warns would-be climbers of "downsloping, loose, rotten and unstable" rock that "kills without warning". The mudstone is also responsible for the Bells' distinctive maroon color. The Bells got their "deadly" reputation in 1965 when eight people died in five separate accidents.
Maroon Lake elevation 9,580 ft (2,920 m) occupies a basin that was sculpted by Ice-Age glaciers and later dammed by a landslide and rockfall debris from the steep slopes above the valley floor.

Out there in the distant and lush NW corner of Mount Rainier National Park Ranger Falls dances to the tune of angels cascading off of boulders and downed trees with a roar and a wet wind to an audience of none. One of the four remaining fire lookouts, perched upon Tolmie Peak, with one of the most magnificent views of the volcano sits abandoned, and access to the popular lake and campground which is a major resupply for the Wonderland Trail, Mowich, is cut off leaving me utterly heartbroken.
On April 14th the once beautiful 494 foot arched bridge that soars 250 feet above the Carbon River and the only public access point to 1/4 of MRNP was closed indefinitely and now....permanently as the 103 year old O'Farrell/Fairfax Bridge that is listed on the National Registry of Historic Places has become just that, historic.
I've been ranting for years about the way we've been hemorrhaging money on new schools and new fire stations as far as the eye can see while I drive like a drunken sailor, no offense Phil, to avoid the potholes and say silent prayers every time I cross a bridge. As Tobey Keith once said, the fits gonna hit the shan around here and it's about time.
I am still uploading on the run. Hopefully tomorrow when i get to another access point I will be able to upload more.
Mont-Saint-Michel (France) – Ces bouts de bois constituent un « escalier » permettant aux randonneurs et promeneurs d’accéder à pied au Mont-Saint-Michel.
Entre cet accès en bois que l’on escalade et le Mont, c’est la partie finale du GR®22, un sentier de randonnée de 567 km. Il part du parvis de Notre-Dame à Paris, traverse 6 départements pour se terminer ici.
On connaît le pèlerinage de Saint-Jacques-de-Compostelle, un peu moins celui du Mont-Saint-Michel. Moi, le premier. Le GR®22 est pourtant emprunté par les pèlerins depuis le haut Moyen Âge (IXᵉ–XIᵉ), jusqu’à nos jours.
The terminus of the GR®22
Mont-Saint-Michel (France) – These wooden stiles form a "staircase" allowing hikers and walkers to access Mont Saint-Michel on foot.
Between this wooden access point and the fortified city, this is the final section of the GR®22, a 567 km hiking trail. It starts from the square in front of Notre-Dame in Paris, crosses six departments, and ends here.
We're familiar with the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela, but less so with the one to Mont-Saint-Michel. Me first. Yet the GR®22 has been used by pilgrims since the Early Middle Ages (9th–11th centuries) to the present day.
When building a castle, access to sufficient water is one of the most important points to consider.
The builders of Ryzmburk Castle in Bohemia certainly took this into account. And so they diverted water from a spring directly into the castle. You can see this access point here. I am quite sure that this spring was one of the main reasons for building the castle in exactly this location.
Even after more than 700 years, the water is still flowing. To me, as a layperson, this looks like good planning.
Wenn man eine Burg baut ist der Zugang zu ausreichend Wasser einer der wichtigsten Punkte, die es zu berücksichtigen gilt.
Das haben natürlich auch die Erbauer der Burg Ryzmburk in Böhmen bedacht. Und so haben sie das Wasser einer Quelle direkt in die Burg umgeleitet. Diesen Zugang seht Ihr hier.
Ich bin mir ziemlich sicher, dass diese Quelle einer der Hauptgründe war, die Burg exakt an dieser Stelle zu bauen.
Auch nach mehr als 700 Jahren fliesst das Wasser noch immer. Das sieht für mich als Laie nach einer guten Planung aus.
A very good friend of mine advised me of an access point to the ocean to which I was not aware. It led me to a place referred to as Marshall Point. I have now been there a few times and will continue to go there. With many unique rock formations it offers different opportunities.
On this evening, the horizon was bright with the light of the setting sun. However, the remaining landscape was quiet dark. These elements made for a moody image. And thanks to some clouds that ran parallel to the major rocky element, a vastly different image took form.
Surprisingly, not a diving board! But the access point, (all escalators and lifts!), to the lakeside path from the town.
By way of an amendment....
I visited here on the 21st August to view progress, it now appears that this is to be a head shunt, the curve at top left of the image, seems to have been an access point for the plant equipment involved in the earthworks, at the opposite end, the Springs Branch end, the ground has been cleared and is being "worked", possibly the build is to be here.
Coming south leading a loaded coal drag in June 1971, a mix bag of Clinchfield power are coming into Unaka Springs preparing to cross the river and enter the Nolichucky River Gorge. The gorge is largely inaccessible and the next easy access point by road is at Poplar across the state line. Photographer unknown.
After six failed attempts, either due to aircraft mechanical issues or weather delays, over a seven day period. I finally made it to Pang.
The light was worth the wait.
Pangnirtung, Nunavut, incorporated as a hamlet in 1972, population 1425 (2011c), 1325 (2006c). The Hamlet of Pangnirtung is located on the southeast shore of Pangnirtung Fjord, on the north shore of Baffin Island's Cumberland Sound, 297 km northeast of Iqaluit. The name derives from an Inuit word said to mean "place of the bull caribou."
The area, which is near the edge of a tundra flat between the base of glaciated mountains and the sea. The first known European visit was by British explorer, John Davis in 1585. By 1840 it had become one of the arctic points where whaling ships gathered most often. Some local Angmarlik Inuit became well-known whaleboat skippers. Several local Inuit provided invaluable guidance to explorers such as Charles F. Hall (c 1860).
During 1882-83 Pangnirtung was the base camp of German scientists participating in the International Polar Year. By about 1910 whaling was in decline, but interest in arctic fox fur took up the slack; the Hudson's Bay Company built a trading post in 1921. The RCMP post was established in 1923. In 1968 the local Inuit formed a co-operative to promote soapstone and whalebone carvings.
Today the community is known for its artworks, particularly the world-famous woven tapestries made by local Inuit artists. It is also the access point to Auyuittuq National Park (created 1972). The hamlet also is home to a thriving turbot fishery which is a major local employer year round.
The Redfield Dam (in Redfield, Iowa) is a lowhead dam spanning the Middle Raccoon River. It is a popular place for fishing and canoeing. About 25 years ago, I put a canoe in the river here and took an easy 11 mile (18 km) ride downriver to another access point just SW of Adel. I remember it as a wonderful ride on a hot summer day. .

This border mountain is the highest in the Zugarramurdi Highlands, a small, rugged massif separating the Nivelle/Urdazuri river basin to the north from the Baztan basin to the south. Among its most prominent peaks are Atxuria or Artxuria (756 m), Mendibil (617 m), Orizki or Zentinela (662 m), Urbia (544 m), and Arleun or Aizpara (525 m). Some of these peaks display steep, jagged slopes that contrast sharply with the rolling hills of Orizki (662 m) and the peaks that descend towards Lizarieta (441 m).
On the northern slope, at the beginning of the Beroeta or Otsabi ravine, lie the famous Sara caves (190 m), which, along with those of Zugarramurdi, are frequently visited by tourists. The same parking lot at the caves serves as an access point to reach this picturesque summit.
Noon Gate or Hien Nhan Gate is one of the historically meaningful entrances to the Hue Imperial Citadel. Located along the eastern wall, this gate once served as a controlled access point into the royal precincts, helping manage daily movement within the bustling political and ceremonial heart of the Nguyen Dynasty. With thick brick walls, protective symbolism, and a curved tile roof echoing classic Vietnamese and Chinese influences, Hien Nhan Gate preserves the character of the imperial defensive system. Its name, meaning Benevolent Person, hints at symbolic virtues expected of those who passed through it, adding cultural depth to its practical function.
A ScotRail "Inter7City" HST, formed of set HA24 with power cars 43032 and 43181, rolls off Jamestown Viaduct (south of Inverkeithing) and approaches North Queensferry Tunnel, working 1B82 13.11 Aberdeen - Edinburgh Waverley.
Having driven to Sunderland the previous evening after a day at the Mid-Norfolk Railway diesel gala, my plan for today - with forecast full sun again - was to get to the Fife Coast as soon as I could for an afternoon of photographing HSTs. I had accommodation booked for two nights in the fairly new Travelodge close to the junction of the M90 and A9 on the outskirts of Perth, because I intended to spend the next couple of days on the Highland Main Line (on the most scenic stretch, where I'd been in early March), but there was very little accommodation available and prices were very high - which was hardly surprising since I'd only made the decision to go a couple of days earlier.
I'd hoped to reach Burntisland by around midday, but didn't set off from Sunderland as early as I might have done - mostly because I'd not arrived there until about 12.15am - and there was heavy traffic in several places (including approaching the Tyne Tunnel as well as in various places on the A1 between Seaton Burn and Berwick). I arrived at Burntisland at about 2pm, and the by this time the sun was starting to get too head-on for the main location I'd had in mind. There were other spots further round the bay which would have been perfectly good, although I needed to explore a little. However, all the shots required the use of a pole, and there was a very strong onshore wind which meant I wouldn't have been able to extend the pole high enough. I took one set of shots (of a pair of 158s) looking across the bay (using a medium telephoto lens), but mainly to see where there were lineside bushes... and there were enough to make the shot of a longer train more difficult.
This location was on my list, having seen a photo taken by James Sutcliffe a month and a half previously - I'd wondered if it was still accessible, but couldn't quite work out how to climb up here (there's a wide path to a Network Rail access point most of the way) and where to park (thanks to James for advice on that). This was the second train to pass after I arrived, the first being a 158 (but I wasn't in the best position for that, as I was exploring different spots). I was here for a little over an hour, long enough to photograph two HSTs.
It would have been nice to have been stood slightly further back and slightly higher up. There was a better spot slightly further back and higher up, but the gorse bush immediately in front of you was just high enough that it ended up as an out-of-focus mass of yellow in the bottom of the frame. So that gives me a reason to come back up here again, this time with the pole!
After this, I spent a very productive couple of hours photographing trains on the north end of the Forth Bridge.. and there are shots from several angles to upload in due course!

It is said that White Dead-nettle makes the heart merry. Well, that was hardly necessary on such a bright Spring day as this: the river views made merry all on their own. Here's the Nederrijn with Arnhem on its banks. In the distance the tower of the Saint Eusebius Church (at 93 metres). The inset is of White Dead-nettle.
I walked more or less along the Nederrijn for quite a while but couldn't get close to its waters due to all the locked-off private properties. Finally I found an access point which led me to a little peninsula with lots of those White Dead-nettles and a good view of the City.

Out on a bright and blue sky day, a beach access point reveals a different access toward the ocean. This one has some very large rocks to play with, and a surf that is splashing with the incoming waves.
Clustered together, a small crevice forms between two bolders, and waves collide against them. They appear somewhat warm in colour because the sun is low and to my left. One after the other, waves crash while this one delivers the biggest strike.
My first venture into the slightly wetter wetlands came with a few obstacles.
A very cold, fog‑laden morning greeted me and every reasonable parking and access point had been cordoned off by construction workers. Still, where there’s a will, there’s a way.
Picking my way through the mist, I was rewarded with a small flock of Pacific Black Ducks enthusiastically bathing in the fog.
(Anas superciliosa)
Just on the ABC News:
The Pacific Black Duck is under threat from hybridisation with introduced domestic mallard ducks, a process experts say has already wiped out populations in New Zealand, as well as Lord Howe Island and Norfolk Island in Australia.
Harveys Lake is the largest natural lake by volume and second-largest by surface area in Pennsylvania.
This photo was taken from the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission Boat Launch area, apparently the only public access point on the lake - most of the shoreline is privately owned.

These two craters are two of the twenty two that were created during the last significant eruption of Mount Etna in 2002. That particular eruption totally wiped out the northern access facilities for the mountain at Linguagossa. Taken during my descent towards the new access point.
The Ceahlău Massif is one of the most notorious mountains of Romania. It is part of the Bistriţa Mountains range of the Eastern Carpathians division, in Neamţ County, in the Moldavia region. The two most important peaks are Toaca (1904 m altitude) and Ocolaşul Mare (1907 m altitude). It is bounded to the east by the Bistriţa River and Lake Bicaz, to the south by the Bicaz River. From the south, the main access point is the village of Izvorul Muntelui, located 12 km north from the town of Bicaz. To the north, Mount Ceahlău is also accessible from Durău.
I set up a fallen branch as an 'optional' access point to the peanut feeder for the squirrels to jump from and it seems to be getting more popular.
I had just a few minutes to spare and the sun was shining so I nipped outside with the camera for some fresh air. I was watching the birds on the feeder and this squirrel almost caught me out as sped through the trees and flew across to the feeder.
I think I can improve on this shot, the head and eyes aren't crisp but it shows promise. I need to up my game, as well as the shutter speed.
So, the way in. This one was easy peasy. I'd found the most easy access point possible many years prior to work even starting - even when construction started and the hoardings went up it was still there. It was available two days before as well when we did a little reccy.
The night comes around - the weather is perfect as we walk towards the site. We turn into the area where the way in and... Oh. For the first time in five years, literally days after being open, our way is closed off. Fencing now rises far above our heads, halting us completely. We'd clearly been seen loitering around by someone and they'd rectified their security mistake. Damn.
I was devastated. There was no other easy way in. That was it. We were going to miss out. Michael however... he didn't give up so easily. It was time for some of that bravado.
The River Alyn in North Wales near Loggerheads passes under an old bridge now claimed by nature. The bridge was the access point for workers to reach the now abandoned Lime stone crushing mill nearby. The feature is surrounded by some of the most ancient woodland I have ever seen.
A fence at the edge of a field used as a boundary to the Middle River Forest Area (left) in Adair County, Iowa. This gravel lane takes you from the road back to a river access point and some trails. Mobile photo.
Happy Fence Friday!
When we walk on the Bruce Trail, we follow the white blazes for the main trail. This section has an access point about a 15 minute walk from our house. I get goose bumps when we start along this part of the trail. It’s where we brought our children to hike. Sometimes I would bring them up here to this spot with a picnic lunch. I had a book to read while the girls “ played house” . They designated “rooms “ in their imaginary home within a certain perimeter. Now we hike this spot on our own but we volunteer to keep these trails accessible. One of our duties on our section of trail is to make sure the blazes are visible. That means we freshen up paint or get rid of any branches obstructing the path. It allows other people to walk this way, too. Enjoy another weekend, everyone!
Later on the same day as the previous shot, we've made our way north of Valley City to the former Great Northern crossing of the Sheyenne River valley between Luverne and Karnak, ND. The minimum maintenance road that leads to a public water access point on Lake Ashtabula was drifted over, so we walked the last mile or so to get here. Thankfully it was a remarkably calm and somewhat mild day. This is still the only time I've ever ventured out here in the winter, but it was well worth the effort. A westbound empty crude oil train is seen crossing the span. My only complaint is that the newer looking SD70ACe's weren't leading, but oh well.

Where Does the Wind Come From
And Where does it go?
Does the water rushing to a shore
Follow its lead
Or move to the pull of a neighboring Moon
Questions on my mind
But silence is to be savored
As I sit on the shores of a Great Lake
In Indiana in a national park
Another work of short poetry or prose to complement the image captured one afternoon in Indiana Dunes National Park. This was along the shoreline of Lake Michigan just down the road from the Dune Ridge Trail area with the view looking across a grassy dune to the northeast. My thinking in composing this image was to use a layered approach with the nearby grasses, then the trees in the middle right portion of the image, and finally the blue waters of Lake Michigan itself. Given the overcast skies that day, I felt that they were more of a negative space and decided to angle my Nikon SLR camera slightly downward to minimize that.
Fagaras Fortress, Romania
"Built in 1310 on the site of a former 12th century wooden fortress (burned by the Tartars in 1241), Fagaras was enlarged between the 15th and 17th centuries and was considered one of the strongest fortifications in Transylvania. The fortress was surrounded by a deep moat which, in times of war or social unrest, could easily be filled with water from a nearby mountain brook. A bridge over the moat provided the only access point. The fortress boasts three floors and five towers." (www.romaniatourism.com/castles-fortresses.html#fagaras)
During the 1950s it was a prison for opponents and dissidents. After the fall of the Communist State in 1989, the castle has been restored and is currently used as a museum, the Fagaras County Museum, displaying Roman artifacts, a collection of medieval weapons and traditional folk crafts. The museum also hosts a beautiful collection of icons painted on glass.
Our goal for Monday was to photograph the Escalante-Western train that travels from the power plant near Prewitt, NM to the El Segundo Mine and return. It's a difficult chase since most of the right of way is inaccessible. The first access point is on County Rd 19 as the train leaves the power plant early in the morning.

Kazachstan is an incredible big country, and that was made clear, when we heard that the normal road to the Aral sea was in a very bad shape. We were advised to take the detour, what meant we first had to take the way North to Uralsk ( a border town with Russia), and then South again towards Aral, a detour that gave us an extra 1500 kilometers, and three days driving in temperatures above 40 degrees Celsius.
But to me, that was Ok because if you want to get to know a country, you must see and undergo it, and while my travel companions thought that the journey was rather boring, I was surprised that despite all the flat countryside, there was quite a lot of variation in sorts of deserts, hills canyon, sometimes stretches with a lot of green and water, and everywhere camels, dromedaries, goats, horses and more. For me the most impressive part of the route was the last part to the Aral Sea, because we saw so many birds of prey (golden eagle, kestrels, buzards, hawk, falcons etc .etc.). i don't exaggerate that we have seen at least 400 eagles in one day.
And then we came at the Aral sea (at least what is left of it), and in these hot temperatures we were very happy to think we finally could get in!!
BUT alas, there was a large stretch of dirt, mud, quicksand, and although I tried for an hour to search for a path towards the water, in this location there was no access (later we found ca 5 km northward of this place, an access point, but that was the next day).
A disappointment true, but the experience of seeing the Aral sea, and how much it has shrunk in recent decades, that for sure is something never to forget..
20 September I came back from my journey over a part of the Silk Road to and through Central Asia. 4 months of traveling through 14 countries (Germany, Austria, Hungary, Romania, Turkey, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kirgizstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Iran) before I flew home from Teheran. An impressive journey in countries that are extremely beautiful, with lovely and welcoming people and diverse cultures and history.
Intense traveling with more than 20000 kilometers in our mobile home on sometimes roads that hardly could be called that way. We saw many villages and cities (some wonderful, others very ugly), countries that are transforming from the old Soviet era into something more related to older cultures and the way people live, often funded by oil readily available around the Caspian sea. We saw the amazing mountains south of the Black Sea, the wonderful Caucasus, and the high mountains in the far east close to China with peaks over 7000 meter, and not to forget the (Bulgarian) Alps!
We crossed the great steppe of Kazakhstan. a drive of at least 5000 km, the remnants of lake Aral, once one of the biggest lakes of the world, saw a rocket launch from Baikonur (this little part is Russian owned), we crossed many high mountains passes, and drove the breathtaking canyon that comes from the Pamir, beginning at ca 4500 meter, and going down for ca. 400km to an altitude of 1300 meter, driving for 100's of kilometers along the Afghan border.
And then the numerous lakes with all sorts of different colors from deep cobalt blue to turquoise, and one rare spectacle in Turkmenistan where a gas crater is burning already for more than 40 years. And finally and certainly not the least to mention an enormous amount of wonderful, hospitable and welcoming people. The woman often dressed in wonderful dresses, and bringing a lot of color in the streets of almost of all countries we visited.
Vancouver, CANADÀ 2024
Bayshore West Marina is a luxury marina located in the heart of Vancouver's Coal Harbour neighborhood. Situated next to the landmark The Westin Bayshore hotel, it enjoys a prime location at the entrance to Stanley Park. The marina offers a secure and elegant haven for yachts and boats, with stunning views of the North Shore Mountains and the city skyline. It's an ideal access point for boaters looking to explore the waters of British Columbia or simply enjoy a tranquil setting in the midst of the bustling city. Its security and professional management make it one of the most exclusive marinas in the area.
Between charm and charm in Irsina you discover archaic architectures and neighborhoods that reveal its ancient and intense history.
Once in town, indescribable emotions follow one another as you walk through the narrow alleys of the silent custodians' quarters of new and ancient buildings, of civil and religious types. We thus come across the ancient and imposing noble palaces, each of which tells a piece of history and life of the town, creating a very suggestive urban ensemble.
Built between the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries, the buildings of Iris are characterized by bosses, coats of arms and epigraphs. In Via Sant'Angelo you can admire the sixteenth-century Palazzo Arsia, while, right against the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, you can see the Episcopal Palace that incorporates the chapel of San Basilio. Also interesting is the Palazzo Nugent, built on the former medieval castle (XIV-XV), which is connected to the Porta Maggiore, the main access point to the city. The coat of arms of the D'Amato family is evident on the access portal of Palazzo D'Amato Cantorio (15th century). Not to be missed is the 17th-century Palazzo Janora which, like Palazzo Cantorio, overlooks Via Roma and was the residence of the historian Michele Janora. The structure is distinguished above all for its characteristics bugne.
The numerous churches scattered throughout the historic center are also impacting, including the Cathedral of the Assumption, which houses the sixteenth-century statue of Santa Eufemia attributed to Mantegna. And then, crossing the squares of Irsina you can admire the walls that open in the vaults of the ancient gates and rise in the circular watchtowers.
The Wilcox Foot Bridge was originally built in 1911 to carry sewer pipes across Lake Washington Boulevard. It still contains sewer pipes and is a popular access point for the Washington Park Arboretum in Seattle. The tall maple trees in the Arboretum are decked out in their autumn glory.

The Thomas Jefferson Building opened in 1897, with the Main Reading Room - inspired by the British Museum Library - becoming the central access point to the Library’s general collections.
