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.

The abandoned and derelict Red House sits at the start of Glen Geldie a good hours cycle ride from any sort of civilisation.
This cycle trip was supposed to be the start of a climb up two Munro's but it took us a lot longer to get there than anticipated and given the early nightfall this time of year, we abandoned the trip and just 'enjoyed' the cycling.
Thank you for your visit, favourites and comments!

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.
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!♥
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.

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.

Remote shooting, using Canon Camera Connect and Canon R6 eye focusing.
Sadly, as of March 2025, the historic Bull Run Bridge (also known as Jenkinsburg Bridge) was permanently closed to vehicles due to safety concerns and to prevent damage to the bridge. Built in 1912 by the Canton Bridge Company, the stunning through-truss bridge traverses West Virginia's very remote and scenic Cheat River Canyon. It rests about 70 feet above a pristine setting on the river known as Blue Hole. [Flickr Explore, November 23, 2025.]
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.
Having finally reached the remote and prized summit of Lurg Mhor I am able to take in its untouched surroundings.
This view looks towards its neighbour Bidean a Choire Sheasgaich.
Magical Sunset.
A long exposure using a 10 stop filter to slow down time, provides a lovely cotton wool like texture of the sea.

Memories hiking the northern part in the fell mountains. Summer light still present here, taken in August.
There is a remote weather station at Low Head. If you enlarge the photograph you'll find what looks like a little alien spacecraft sitting amongst the rocks just behind the tower with the anemometer on it. This is to measure wind speed. Apart from the vegetation we could easily be on Mars.
This is Will sitting on a bench on a snowy 'beach' out at the far end of the Grossglockner High Alpine Road. Despite the fact we visited in June there was still a lot of snow about.
Last morning on the Spanish River and we finally had a predictable 103, the tail end remote perfectly sunlit against the rugged backdrop at the east end of Pogamasing. It was nice shooting some of the brand new Tier 4s over the trip, but we felt fortunate to get a clean CWM rebuild to cap it all off.
With nothing else for freights coming, we'd spend the rest of the morning packing up camp and hauling our gear down to the canoe launching point where we'd flag down VIA's 186 to take us back to Cartier. An incredible area with endless photo opportunities if you don't mind bears, blackflies and dehydrated foods for an extended period.

trendy phrases always take a ride
along the boulevard of fashionable pride
sometimes your up
sometimes you down
what's old today
is new tomorrow
and so it goes
but remote learning
where did that start
a phrase so hip
who can tell it apart
from caves of old
where drawings grew cold
on darkened walls
a thousand years old
so when it's happening
and teachers are proud
just remember
the human race wasn't born in december
no indeed
learning can be said
to have happened as
soon Eve ate that apple
and found out
that learning was now remote
without the King
without Him
now we were meant
to learn
to pray
to hope for a better day
a better way.
