After spending 2 nights car-camping at different locations near Gold Bridge, Jon & I headed up towards Dickson Peak for a backpacking overnighter.
Our route was up Roxey Creek. Mostly on an old road and ATV track, passing a few cabins in various stages of decay. Then made our way up through the meadows towards this end of the valley. We set up our camps (Jon chose a place in the trees) and headed up towards the summit.
Dickson Peak is not visible from this spot. It is to the right and ended up being much higher than the reflected peaks you can see here. We had started hiking around lunch time, which is a little late, so our descent was in the dark and made for a few little adventures.
It was a chilly night. Minus -5 degrees celsius when we woke up. But with my down booties on, I was only too pleased to wander around, checking out the first light creeping onto the surrounding mountains.
We didn't see any other people the entire hike.

A golden sunset at China Camp, with a Manzanita tree silhouetted against the bay, and Mount Burdell beyond.
This is one of the the closest state parks to where I live, which happens to be between the mountain in the background and where I was standing.

i am still digging some shots i never bothered posting. it's insightful going through years of photographies.
on a side note, i knew i couldn't stay away from a Leica camera for too long. i pulled the trigger on the Leica Q.
Beyal camp is the first camp that comes into your path, when hiking from Fairy Meadows towards the Raikhot Face of Nanga Parbat (the ninth highest mountain in the world, with an altitude of 8,126 meters).
To reach Beyal camp, you must first arrive at Raikhot Bridge on the Karakoram Highway, also known as N35 on the Pakistani side (Highway 314 on the Chinese side). From there, a 2-3 hour jeep ride takes you to the small village of Tattu Bridge. A six-kilometer hike from Tattu Bridge leads to Fairy Meadows, offering enchanting views of the forest below, Raikhot glaciers, and the mighty Nanga Parbat itself. From the Fairy maedows there is a 3 hours of hike to Beyal camp.
And BTW, the sunset here is otherworldly. The camp is at an alittude of 3550 m. However, the top of the Nanga parbat is at 8126 m. So the difference in light during sunset is just mesmirizing. When you know its already evening and dark around and then you suddenly look up and see the breathtaking sunset colors/light at the peak: is what I meant when I said, OTHERWORLDY!

Rose and I went for an evening walk around the camp grounds. It was so beautiful, relaxing, and peaceful. :)
I happened to cruise down this little road in Camp Verde early one Saturday morn and thought, how lovely . . . must do this with my camera next time.
Picked a puffly cloud summer afternoon and headed out. As I approached my "tree", a small micro-burst developed over head, creating a spotlight effect.
Serendipity ;{)

Last minutes before sunset - a restful and romantically moment.

Here’s one more Vertorama from my archives… taken about three months ago from a beach near Camps Bay.
I’ve recently noticed that some anonymous Flickr user (with no buddy icon or photos on their stream) has been adding meaningless comments to several of my contacts’ photos. These comments always include a small image which appears to be a video-player… and a link to click on if you want check out the video.
That got me thinking about all these warnings that I get to NEVER click on any links included in an email message… unless the email was sent by someone who I can really trust. These days I get an average of about 10 emails per week from my bank (supposedly)… asking me to click on the link below to confirm my bank details. Of course these emails are NOT being sent to me by my bank… but rather by criminals who are trying to redirect me to their website… to enter my bank details… so that they can use them steal all my money! This is commonly known as a “Phishing Attack”.
So… I wondered… what’s to stop someone from launching their phishing attack from a link included in a Flickr comment? If I clicked on their link… couldn’t that automatically start downloading a trojan or some or other keystroke-logging program that would monitor all my keyboard activity… looking out for passwords and other banking details? And even if the comment (and link) has been added by one of my trusted contacts… surely it would be quite simple to create a new Flickr account with a name like “Mike Jones Photgraphy” (incorrectly spelled)… using Mike’s buddy icon… in an attempt to catch the unwary Flickr users?
Even those notification emails that Flickr sends me (to my private email address) when someone has added me as a contact… surely it would be the easiest thing in the world to fake that simple email and to send it to people who have a Flickr account? I never click on the links in these emails messages… I always log on to Flickr first… then go to my inbox… and then click on the links in the messages listed there. But I have no doubt that there are many people who do click on the links in these notification emails… can you really be sure that the email is being sent to you by Flickr?
So… I have decided that from today onwards… I will no longer be clicking on any links included in any comments… from anybody that I don’t know! Call me paranoid if you like… I call it playing safe! Food for thought?
My favorite image of the day is this amazing photo by master landscape photographer Jesse Estes from Portland in Oregon. This particular photograph was taken in Yosemite during the Winter of 2009… maybe it’s the fact that I’ve never had the opportunity to shoot a snow scene… but this is probably my favorite image that I’ve EVER seen on Flickr! You rock Jesse… you’re miles ahead of me… but I’m hoping that if I pay careful attention to what you’re doing… that one day I might also be able to shoot something as incredible as this!
Nikon D300, Sigma 10-20 at 10mm, an aperture of f16 and a 1/8th second exposure.

A peaceful camping trip in the woods. What could go wrong? This is a close up of my latest MOC with the helicopter/water removed to show the forest backdrop.
another angle on lake Saoseo in the Val Da Camp valley. taken from the top of a rock formation on the opposite side of the lake. i have not chaged the blue tones in the water in post at all. so the colors are straight out of the camera. only the shadows have been pulled up again to get the details back in the tree and the forest on the other side of the lake
1/30 of a sec at f/8.0 shot with the camera on my bag since i did not bring my tripod that day

It's fair to say that Alex won the "Taking a winter mat is better" debate. We hadn't anticipated camping over snow, but having hiked up several hundred meters to look for a tent pitch, we found ourselves surrounded by rocks and boulders in every direction. It was a cold night for me as my mat wasn't up to the job.
