I stood in awe of the desolate beauty.
So lucky to capture the full moon setting
behind the barren branches.
North of Pyramid Lake in Nevada, this west bound with a collection of Rio Grande and SP power cruises past.
As requested by Joe Lang and because I enjoyed making that dirtbike, here is another Mad Max inspired pic. I am in love with this movie and the vehicles, characters, universe behind it. I also love seeing all the builds everyone has been making about it which keeps me inspired.
The weather of late has not been very summery so I decided to make the most of it. My wife and I popped to the FoxTor cafe over the weekend. I decided to visit Nuns Cross Farmhouse, leaving my wife in the warm, as I have not been here for many years. Fog was forecast, so I waited around in the heavy rain, for some to blow over. After what seemed like an eternity, it started to blow in, just enough to grab this shot, then back into the warm!
The cold wind
Slices through my body
But I stand
As a testimony
Of time
Of the cruelties of life
But here I shall
Stand
For it is here
That no one
Notices me

This was another one of those times while hiking that you couldn't help but take a break and set up the camera. This really wasn't too far into the 22.5 km hike for the day, but it was just too interesting a scene to decline! I was really taken aback by the contorted logs present in this slightly marshy area, and thought they'd make an interesting subject. It added maybe 20 to 30 minutes to my day, but in the end I think it was worth it!

Sea of Dunes. © Copyright 2021 G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.
Layers of sand dunes lead toward barren desert mountains, Death Valley National Park.
Death Valley is often a beautiful place, but there are places in this landscape that can appear quite desolate if you look in the right direction. In many landscapes most of what we see is what covers the scene, but here the underlying geology is often stripped bare and we are left with a landscape of rock and sand. Even where plants grow — more places than you might imagine — they do not cover the landscape in the manner of forests and meadows.
This photograph is about that way of seeing this landscape. The dunes build one after another toward their highest point, much like waves on the ocean. Beyond this there is a rugged desert mountain range. This photograph is what I think of as a subjectively true image. While you would never find a scene that literally looks exactly like this, this interpretation is true to one way of seeing the place.

We just concluded a wonderful workshop in one of the most desolate landscapes. This year, however, we were treated to the most beautiful blooms. This photo is a great reminder that even in the most hostile environments, life finds a way to blossom.
An abandoned, derelict croft in Balallan, it would have gifted the owner a spectacular view of Loch Erisort and the hills on the other side of the loch when it was lived in.
The first of many misty shots that I have from the wonderful Dinorwic slate mine, taken on a Tuesday when we were meant to be heading to the coast. However, passing through Llanberis we made an executive decision and I'm glad we did as we lost ourselves for 4 hours in this wonderful and vast place.
One of my favourite London views is this angle of St Paul's, and due to the beauty of LE almost a taste of how this may look after the unthinkable…desolate!!…me and my warped mind ;-)
Happy Window Wednesday!!
