Thank you for comments and views!

Farmland outside of Tweed, Ontario, Canada.

A lone fisherman making a living in Ha Long Bay. The floating platforms are artificial closures created for fish farming.

In a relationship, the most epic fight is over control .. I mean, the TV remote control XD

 

Whoever obtains it will have the power to choose the movie on Netflix, and believe me... it´s a battle that I don´t intend to lose.

Advantages of living in such a place

- Playing AC/DC at top volume without worrying about the neighbours

Disadvantages

- Inconvenient when the milk runs out

Blissful after the summer tourtists have gone back to their cities.

Rachakonda Fort --

Once this remote hamlet was the capital of the Velma Kings during the 14th and 15th centuries. It is said the Velmas were cursed by a woman that they would never again rule. People believe that it is the result of the curse the Rachakonda Fort absolute ruin today! Yet, the masonry wall of the fort screams out its glory and story!!

The Kennels. An iconic outbuilding that is so photogenic and justifiably so.

I sing in the early morning, I cry in the dark night, I grow towards the sun, I humble in the storm. All I've been through is because I know - one day, I will meet you.

And this is my testimony - a little flower in the remote valley.

 

Sorry my dear flickr friends, I couldn't get your back immediately. Wish you all have a lovely week!

Wadi Rum desert, Jordan

My family have lived here for 60 years. I had heard about a patch of Rhododendrons that grew in the middle of nowhere, but never seen them.

So yesterday, we went over the hill (the one I look out onto) and far away, in search of this patch.

We were too late for the main flowering period, but there were still some flowers looking good.

I am still astounded by how big that patch of Rhododendrons is (all white, but looking like there are different varieties). It was a real thrill to see them ... next year I will be visiting earlier!

I couldn't get a distance shot that showed the whole area, but there's one in the first comment box to give an idea of the scale.

 

Road from Vik to Bergen, Norway

As we descend from Glas Maol and Creag Leacach, I came across the Meall Odhar cafe at the top of one of the chair lifts, just set very remotely among the mountains of the Scottish Highlands.

 

Glas Maol (meaning the grey green hill) is my 18th Munro and stands at a height of 1068 meters (3504 feet). Creag Leacach (meaning 'the slabby crag') is my 19th and stands at 987 meters (3238 feet).

Everytime I look at this photo I would like to take a seat to watch and feel the elements. Lanzarote 2022.

My much used remote to trigger the camera shutter from a distance.

Macro Mondays: Photographic Equipment

This male eastern bluebird would perch on the same spot outside a nest while the female did her work going in and out with nest building materials.

 

To get this image, I setup the wifi connection on the camera to link it to my phone. That allowed me to stand back at a distance and wait for the blue bird to return to the spot. It works, but there is a considerable lag, so I wouldn't rely on it if you had to get a shot.

 

The image was taken in the morning with light reflecting off green brush in the distance. The bird was in the shade, so a flash was used to add some fill light.

 

During the boat trip from Bergen (Norway) to Stavanger, we passed this remote place, with a little light on it. Must be relaxing, but maybe also a bit lonesome living here. Enjoy your lazy Sunday!

Riva Valdobbia, Valsesia. Italy.

The remote mountain peak named Punta Carestia, 2.979m (9,774ft), on the watershed between the two regions of Piemonte and Valle D’Aosta; the long ridges of the mountain and the pastures of the Settlement called Alpe Maccagno are ccovered by the first snow of the year.

Counts as gym class, as long as I take a pic and a short video.

 

Looks warm, right? Nope; that is ice water.

 

Sorry, there are lots of mountains to see but I am limited right now to what I can get to within 10 or 15 minutes -- just can't be away from the house very long.

The bumpy and dusty end of Forest Road (FR) 163 in southern Wyoming leads you to a concrete slab where you can launch your boat into the Flaming Gorge Reservoir (further left past the photo). In the distance you can see the mountains in northern Utah below the dreamy, early morning clouds. The tributary to the right leads you to Briggs Reservoir back near the highway. There wasn't a soul in sight as we enjoyed the remote beauty here.
