This shot was taken out in the Bisit Badlands of New Mexico. I was out shooting with friends in this very remote area outside of Farmington and was delighted to trek in with 5 friends and emerge with nine. If you are interested in a trip to this and several other locations there, Wayne Pinkston and I will be hosting a couple of workshops to this very location in July 2018.
We will be covering all aspects of Nightscape Photography from start to finish, All apps used to calculate Milky Way position and time to shoot, how to confidently make your way through the wilderness in the dark using GPS and everything you need to know to capture the image of a lifetime. Come out and join us on our adventure "Fantasy Themed" Workshop. The will also be hosting a post-processing session after the workshop.

de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breitenstein_(Schwäbische_Alb)
Der Breitenstein ist ein 811,2 m ü. NHN[1] hohes Felsplateau in Baden-Württemberg. Es liegt nahe dem Dorf Ochsenwang an der Kreisstraße 1220 auf der Gemarkung der Gemeinde Bissingen an der Teck. Der Felsvorsprung besteht aus Weißjuragestein und liegt am Nordrand der Schwäbischen Alb direkt am Albtrauf.
Von dem ca. 200 Meter breiten Plateau des Breitensteins aus bietet sich ein von Vegetation nicht behinderter weiter Blick auf das ca. 400 Meter tiefer gelegene, nördlich der Schwäbischen Alb gelegene Gebiet – im Nordwesten bis nach Stuttgart – weshalb er ein beliebter Ausflugsort ist und auf nahezu allen Karten der Gegend verzeichnet ist.
Auf dem Plateau Breitenstein befindet sich eine Bronzetafel, in der die Lage und Entfernung der von dort sichtbaren Orte verzeichnet ist.
Der Breitenstein ist sowohl als geschütztes Geotop und unter dem Namen Felspartie des Breitenstein auch als flächenhaftes Naturdenkmal ausgewiesen.

The Breitenstein is a rocky plateau 811.2 m above sea level[1] in Baden-Württemberg. It is located near the village of Ochsenwang on the district road 1220 in the district of Bissingen an der Teck. The rocky outcrop is made of Weißjura stone and lies on the northern edge of the Swabian Alb directly on the Alb ridge.
From the approx. 200-metre-wide plateau of the Breitenstein, there is a wide view, unobstructed by vegetation, of the area approx. 400 metres below, to the north of the Swabian Alb - as far as Stuttgart in the northwest - which is why it is a popular place for excursions and is marked on almost all maps of the area.
There is a bronze plaque on the Breitenstein plateau that lists the location and distance of the places visible from there.
The Breitenstein is designated both as a protected geotope and, under the name Felspartie des Breitenstein, also as an areal natural monument.

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
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!!
Ayrmer Cove is a beautiful, secluded sandy beach, which you can reach on foot most easily from either Challaborough Beach or the nearby village or Ringmore.
On this particular day we walked down from the National Trust car park and were surprised at the fury of the Ocean and you can imagine my desperation to capture the mood. First of all I took some LE a couple way back in this account but my remote release stopped working (and why I bought cable releases now for my camera’s) I just don’t tether my iPhone never have. It was possibly the most exhilarating photo session I personally ever had. It was very cold and very windy but I loved it...
Below is the link where the famous Shark fin rock is more clearly visible...

But I'm not paying a lot of attention to the instruments or what's going on in front at the moment.
This is Tasmania's remote south west World Heritage wilderness area.

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.
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.

I wanted to say a few words about this capture.
First of all, modeling with me is my very good friend Enanito Verde. Unfortunately Enanito wasn't able to continue on this platform after Flickr enforced their drastic policies this past spring and we lost his wonderful work here. However, you can still see his creations at Enanito Verde on Slushe and Enanito Verde on Twitter. Thank you so much Enanito. You're awesome babes!♥
Secondly, I have to confess that this one's not totally my brainchild. I actually ran across the artwork that inspired this one over a year ago. And when I wanted to do something comical for the Holst & Holst Gallery I thought of it, but I could not find it anywhere. I knew I'd saved it but I could not find it. I was able to remember enough about it to create my own version of it with a little twist that I thought was cute and funny.
So as I was about to post it this morning, I decided to try to find the original image one more time, and I found it! That said, I'm posting a link to a gyazo I made of the original. I do not know the artist's work really. I'm sure someone here may. I like the image though. Cheers!♥
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!

After a short visit with relatives in western Idaho, I crossed the state line into remote eastern Oregon and headed into the Owyhee Mountains. My intent was to drive 15 miles deep into the wilderness along a rough dirt-and-gravel road -- purportedly narrow in spots, rutted and treacherous, with high-clearance 4WD strongly advised, especially after rains. Having made that journey without incident, I emerged from the steep canyon in the background of this shot and rolled into Succor Creek State Natural Area's small campground, tucked down in the creek bottom among the trees, which I'd hoped would be vacant this late in the season. But a few other folks had already claimed some spots. I was reticent to camp with other people around (preferring solitude over strangers), so I kept going.
A short distance beyond, I pulled over on the rim and took this shot looking back: the winding gravel track snaking through dry grasslands, flanked by dark volcanic cliffs, with the campground nestled in that distant slash of green trees -- and if you zoom in far enough, at least one camping vehicle visible among them. After capturing this view, I continued south on the dirt-and-gravel trail and eventually found myself camped literally in the middle of nowhere, which is exactly what I'd been looking for.

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.
La Punta Carestia e I pascoli dell’Alpe Maccagno coperti dalla prima neve dell’anno.
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.
So remote that I can't remember exactly where this is! I think that it is probably in Lunedale on the B6276 between Brough and Middleton-in-Teesdale, but I could easily be wrong!
It was certainly wild countryside even on a relatively nice day of sunshine and showers. It must be so bleak in the depths of winter.
