After a long walk or bike ride on the north-east of Terschelling island, you will find this remote shelter or "drenkelingenhuisje". It used to be a place for seamen who were shipwrecked and could find shelter here. It is now a famous place at Terschelling to visit for hikers and for photographers...

Don't know why my camera details do not appear, but this one was at ISO 100, F/20 and 1/100 sec using a polarising filter. Enjoy your day

Thank you for comments and views!

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.

Colonnade aka Five Hole Arch (more like a spacious 5-hole cave) is a remote location in the San Rafael Desert. From there you have an excellent view of the gorges of the Green River valley up to the Manti La Sal mountains in the background.

Spent some time last week in the remote wilderness of north west Tasmania. What an amazing part of the world.

Near Seyðisfjörður, Iceland

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!!

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!

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.

 

Thank you for your visit, favourites and comments!

 

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.

 

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.

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!♥

The old fishing vessel 'MV Dayspring' on the shores of Loch Torridon at Lower Diabaig.

 

Diabaig is a remote coastal fishing and crofting township in Wester Ross, in the Northwest Highlands of Scotland. Diabaig lies on the north shore of the sea loch of Loch Diabaig, an inlet off the north side of Loch Torridon.

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!

Remember the days where the city was bustling with people and activity? These days it’s rather more isolated and remote… In some sense, this is the new remote ways of working.

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.

Back in the days, there was a TV show about a remote town up in the mountains. Surrounded by Peaks in a valley, always covered in clouds with eccentric inhabitants. And the murder of Laura Palmer brought the FBI. I rushed home every day this series was aired... I was obsessed. And the title score was so haunting and beautiful.. and with the beautiful voice of Julee Cruise, it became one of my favorite songs ever , it was so different to what we usually heard on the radio back then. And damned, it was hard to get this melody out of your head once you heard it! 😉 A perfect song for just stay in bed and... fall

 

Falling - Julee Cruise

 

Don't let yourself be hurt this time

Don't let yourself be hurt this time

Then I saw your face

Then I saw your smile

The sky is still blue

The clouds come and go

Yet something is different

Are we falling in love?

Don't let yourself be hurt this time

Don't let yourself be hurt this time

Then your kiss so soft

Then your touch so warm

The stars still shine bright

The mountains still high

Yet something is different

Are we falling in love?

Falling

Falling

Are we falling in love?

Falling

Falling

Are we falling in love?
