We've reached the southwest edge of Beinn Mheadhoin before starting our descent. From here we have a magnificent view of Loch Etchachan below us and the high Cairngorm plateau beyond, with the UKs 2nd highest peak of Ben MacDui in the distance.

The extraordinary location of Plateau Hut which sits opposite Mt Cook in New Zealand.
I visited this location back in early September with fellow photographers Tim Poulton, Jay Daley, Tim Donnely and Damien Siedel.
Also check out this awesome new location guide app from Tim Poulton and the OOAK crew. Android version coming out early 2015.

Le Plateau de Bénou (860m) sur la route du Col de Marie-Blanque offre un superbe panorama sur le fond de la vallée en forme de U, témoin de l'érosion causée par le passage du glacier d'Ossau et sur les massifs alentours. Chapelle du Houndas C'est un lieu pastoral avec de nombreuses granges et troupeaux au printemps et à l'automne.
Départ de nombreuses randonnées sur les différents plateaux : Houndas, Roland et Técouère et cercles de pierre (chromlechs).
Un vaste plateau calcaire perché en altitude est particulièrement sensible à la sécheresse qui caractérise cet été. L'herbe qui d'ordinaire comble les brebis cette année ne leur offre que des tiges dures, que le vent chaud achève de dessécher. Quelques buissons se dressent avec entêtement, attendant des jours meilleurs...
Shot above the Jakobskogel, the view towards the Heukuppe summit at 2007 m. If you look closely, you can see the alpine refuge huts strewn around the enormous plateau.
The Beartooth Plateau rises above the Clarks Fork Valley along The Chief Joseph Highway (WY 296) northwest of Cody Wyoming. This photo was taken just after a short snow squall moved across the peaks. The photo shows U-shaped, glacially-carved valleys in the Canyon Creek drainage on the west side of the plateau.
Geologically, the core of the Beartooth Plateau is composed of a igneous-metamorphic rock complex of Archean age which has been dated radiometrically at around than 2.6 billion years old. These rocks represent a time when Wyoming was a separate microcontinent called the Wyoming Craton which existed 500 million years before the North American Continent formed.
Le plateau de Beauregard, station de ski familiale est situé à trente Kms d' Annecy, Haute-Savoie, France.
The Smoky Mountain Road is a 78 mile back country road that is described as challenging, beautiful, exciting and rough. We found it to be all of that. The road travels though the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area and the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. In the south part of the road not many miles from Big Water, Utah the road passes below the cliffs of the Kaiparowitz Plateau. Since this part of the road is not very far from civilization, many drivers cannot resist traveling off road and leaving their tracks. We hope to visit this area again in a couple months.
Happy Slider Sunday!
Moody sunset view across the Plateau Valensole end of September. At this time nearly all Lavender is harvested.
In the background the foothills of the French Alps. In the middle Le Grand Marges (1576 m) with an incredible view across the Gorges du Verdon. I can really advise making an hike up there from the little village Aiguines. Left the Cime de Barbin (1561 m) and the Crête de l'Ourbes.

Konya is an economically and industrially developed city and the capital of Konya Province.
This Ewe and her lamb were on another plateau adjacent to where I was at. It just amazes me how these sheep get up there and especially the little lamb.

Là il est 12h11 ... les teintes changent , la lumière est peut être plus crue et il fait une chaleur torride !! :)
Big panoramas aren't my normal thing but I decided to give this one a go on the Pentax. Six horizontal frames stitched in Lightroom. The detail on the original merged image is astounding from this camera not that Flickr will let you view it at that magnification!
Taken along the Desert Road SH1 just a few km's north of Waiouru. The view incorporates Mounts Ruapehu and Ngauruhoe (both active volcanoes) with some of the central plateau with its power pylons and sheep grazing below!
