It was very peaceful, standing on the Salt Flats at Badwater Basin, Death Valley, USA with no one else around us.

'The Basin'
At Coaster's Retreat, on The Pittwater.
A secluded beach near Sydney.
The Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park.
Accessible by private boat or the Palm Beach Ferry.
The upside - seclusion, an unspoilt beach, roaming swamp wallabies and random, large, goanna lizards. Watch your lunch.
The downside - no cafe. And that's bad. Very bad. However, you can survive. Just.
Leave your car at Palm Beach. Take the ferry. You won't want to come back. Here's something about 'The Basin':

And here's one of my favourite 'chill' tracks from Digby Jones. It is called 'Under The Sea'. Perfect for a day at 'The Basin'.
Check out the accompanying, cool, video:

The view across the glacially carved North Saint Vrain Creek drainage, looking up to Mount Meeker (13,916' /4,242 m), Longs Peak (14,259' / 4346 m), and Pagoda Peak (‎11120' / 3389 m), emerging from the clouds on a beautiful fall afternoon.
Badwater Basin is an endorheic basin in Death Valley National Park, Death Valley, Inyo County, California, noted as the lowest point in North America, with a depth of 282 ft (86 m) below sea level.
At the edge of the basin, where water is not always present at the surface, repeated freeze–thaw and evaporation cycles gradually push the thin salt crust into hexagonal honeycomb shapes.
We are just back from Death Valley, will share more images in the coming days.
Have a great weekend! Thanks for stopping by and for all of your kind comments, awards and faves -- I appreciate them all.

The exit to Grandfather Mountain from the Blue Ridge Parkway showcases this interesting little fall. It's head water is a mountain spring flowing down from Grandfather mountain, and drops into this little basin at the bottom. I stopped the car and took a few minutes to compose a shot here. Portraits and Waterfalls... Things I have issues photographing. I would of been further back, but any further would of been in the road. Ah well, I still enjoyed getting out and shooting!

Said to be the largest rock basin on Dartmoor this naturally eroded feature is on top of Kestor Rock (a tor that does not carry tor in the name). Whe climbed up as part of a fantastic circular hike around Scorhill and Gidleigh on North Eastern Dartmoor. We first spotted some smaller basins and thought that those were the one mentioned before almost falling into that incredible well! As with many Darmoor locations this basin also comes along with plenty of legends. Druids possibly used the basin for sacrificial rituals....
For those interested, I made a video of the entire walk:
The Pemigewasset Stream flows through The Basin in Franconia Notch State Park, White Mountains, New Hampshire. The waterfall is abut 10 feet high.

I arrived in American Basin in the afternoon of August 31, and hiked comfortably in shorts and a T shirt. But the wind was rising as the sun set, and I was awakened in my tent at midnight by strong winds blowing snow.
In the morning, I headed back to a small pond that I had visited the previous afternoon, hoping it would look like this. The first snow turned from a deep disappointment to an opportunity. My tripod was at about 11,300 feet and the highest peak on the horizon reaches 13,806 feet.
In Colorado, it can snow in the high mountains on any day of the year.

On the Tuesday after Labor Day 2022, the Columbia Basin ran a turn from Warden north to serve customers in the Wheeler area. The CBRW has an impressive fleet of SD9's in this attractive red, black, and white scheme. The 651 leading this train was previously on the MRL and EJ&E. They were working pretty good with this train coming up a short grade in the Atwood area about halfway between Warden and Wheeler.
A boardwalk (with low fencing) leads over small pools of water to the salt flats which cover almost 200 square miles. Badwater Basin is the lowest point in North America at 282 feet below sea level. The Panamint Range rises several miles in the distance with Telescope Peak at 11,049 elevation.
Happy Fence Friday!

Came in early from the park one evening and decided to take a drive out the Chief Joseph Highway outside of Cooke City, which is also known as Sunlight Basin. Besides being a beautiful drive, it's also a popular spot to see a variety of wildlife, including moose, bear, and bighorn sheep. We didn't come across anything other than deer along our drive but sure enjoyed the views along the way. It rained much of the time, but the clouds parted just long enough to let a little sunshine through on this scene.
Happy Hump Day!!!
The Norris Geyser Basin is the hottest geyser basin in the park and is located near the northwest edge of Yellowstone Caldera near Norris Junction and on the intersection of three major faults. The Norris-Mammoth Corridor is a fault that runs from Norris north through Mammoth to the Gardiner, Montana, area. The Hebgen Lake fault runs from northwest of West Yellowstone, Montana, to Norris. This fault experienced an earthquake in 1959 that measured 7.4 on the Richter scale (sources vary on exact magnitude between 7.1 and 7.8; see 1959 Yellowstone earthquake). Norris Geyser Basin is so hot and dynamic because these two faults intersect with the ring fracture zone that resulted from the creation of the Yellowstone Caldera of 640,000 years ago.
