Camping at 14,200' on Mt. McKinley, better known as Denali. About half of the 13,000' of climbing is done at this point. Expedition took place in early June 2007, and Mt. Foraker is in the distance. Thanks to Fuji Velvia slide film for amazing colors.

Dawn on A'Mhaighdean, the remotest Munro in Scotland. Ruadh Stac Mor in the background. What a sight to wake up to!
A tent pitched on the shingle of Hurst Spit has a wonderful distant view of the iconic "Needles" off the Isle of Wight.
The scene at sunset was majestic, particularly after a wet blustery July day on Englands South Coast.
I love this handheld camera with a 1/30s time. When someone moves too fast, there is a blur. Here the fire did a strange shift.
Dave really spoils Maggie. Lots of ticks this year camping so kept her off the ground as much as we could.
"When nothing seems to help, I go look at a stone-cutter hammering away at his rock perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not that blow that did it, but all that had gone before."

The climbers' camp at Mt. Rainier. Paradise, USA.
Mount St. Helens from near Bear Camp in the Mount Margaret Backcountry. This area is relentlessly hot during the day but sublime when the sun drops. We found real solitude in camp because only one party is allowed per camp per night.
From camping last weekend. Found some fresh picked strawberries at a farm stand and I brought along some biscuits I had made. All came together for great tasting strawberry shortcake.
Beautiful vibrant Camps Bay, always attracting the beautiful people of Cape Town and the world.

This was probably considered a really nice camping setup in it's day. Taken in the Mohave Desert in Nevada.
Little over a year ago I fulfilled a longtime wish by visiting the Yemeni island of Socotra - an incredible experience. As nations around the world are battling the pandemic and economies are crumbling, we seem to be more concerned about our own well-being than ever before. While this is understandable, it’s good to realize that you’re probably still one of the lucky ones.
Yemen has been ravaged by a five-year civil war which has sparked the world’s largest humanitarian crisis in terms of numbers, pushed two-thirds of the country to the brink famine and prompted the worst outbreak of cholera in modern history.
To make matters worse, the capital was hit by heavy flash floods causing widespread disruption. Many shop owners and stall owners have lost everything and are now unable to make a living. The flooding could also mean problems for the country's sanitation system, which is already minimal.
Yemen has had one of the world's largest cholera outbreaks in recent memory and health officials have been dreading the eventual appearance of coronavirus in the country. This has now happened. The ministry of health recently announced that one case has been discovered.
The International Rescue Committee said that more than half of Yemen’s health facilities are no longer functioning and 18 million people are without access to proper hygiene, water and sanitation. Moreover, around 80% of the population, or 24 million people, rely on humanitarian assistance.
As so often, there is not much you can do other than to donate money. If you have a few bucks to spare, consider donating to rescue.org
In light of the above this image seems rather trivial, which I guess it is. Next time I’ll be more cheerful again.
