Spending a night outside just after Christmas last year. At - 1°C it got a little chilly so I had a small Whisky before heading into my sleeping bag.
Continuing my attempts to build in a 'classic-style'. I wanted to do a small set for the Forestmen range. So this is a hidden camp where the forestmen can hide and rest whilst out and about in the forest :)

When Paul & Andre told me that we were going to stay at the "Bush Camp", I was thinking of some very rudimentary accommodation, and what was not my surprise when I saw those 5-stars facilities!
5 exposures handheld HDR tonemapped with Dynamic Photo HDR. Blended back the +1EV exposure for the foreground and did some color correction.
Please check Paul's (panorama_paul) and André's (andreinafrica) photostreams for more great shots of that fantastic 2-days outing in the bush!

"Ed's Camp is another roadside attraction that harkens back to the early days of Route 66. Ed originally came to the area as a miner in 1917 and it didn't take him long to realize that the real gold could be found catering to the needs of Route 66 travelers than slaving away in the mines. He established his camp around 1919 and business was so good he never got around to building a proper building, he just threw up a roof to provide some measure of protection from the hot desert sun. he put up the kactus kafe, a gas station, a "bathroom of sorts, and a few cabins. He also established sort of a campground and the remnants can be clearly seen from the road.
Today the camp is deserted, but the odd buildings survive to temp the artistic talents of modern photographers ~ from the road that is (see note below).

First night camping. You can see the sleeping platform I built in my Jeep. Works pretty well. And since I'm just 5'8", I can sleep inside a 2-door Wrangler just fine.
I'll have to do a review of my JeepSleep ® sometime.
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.
Once a route used for droving cattle to markets. The Barkly is now 200km of flat straight road. We saw just one other vehicle, a station ute as we travelled along. Here we are camped for the night, and as I climbed the ladder the sight of the Milky Way captivated me.
It took three images merged together to gather up the big night sky and record the magnificent awe-inspiring remoteness.
p.s. I used the camp light and torch to light up our camp under the stars.

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. :)
Looking south from the top of British camp towards Swinyard hill in the distance.
The weather forecast had said that there was a slight chance of some decent light at sunset, sat on the top of the British Camp on a cold and very windy evening that seemed very remote but just as the sun went down I did get some colour in the sky.
Since the evening wasn't the best weather wise at least I had the hill top to myself.
