A lone fisherman making a living in Ha Long Bay. The floating platforms are artificial closures created for fish farming.
Spent some time last week in the remote wilderness of north west Tasmania. What an amazing part of the world.

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!!
Spent an evening visiting a remote pond and found the beavers to be pretty relaxed in my presence. I hope they're a little more cautious when the next bear comes by.

Does anyone else like scrambling through driftwood to see what they can find? Enroute to Tomahawk Island in the distance.
Thanks to everyone who takes the time to comment on my photos, they are greatly appreciated!
Waterscape 56/100 in 2025
Douro Valley, Portugal
One of the classic Douro riverside quintas, Senhora da Ribeira was acquired by George Warre for Dow’s in 1890. Since then, Senhora da Ribeira has been a fundamental component of Dow’s Vintage Ports. A small chapel dedicated to the ‘Lady of the River’ (literally Senhora da Ribeira) has stood on the site for centuries and gave the quinta its name.
Senhora da Ribeira is set in the remote, hot, dry Douro Superior and commands a magnificent position on the north bank, overlooking a broad sweep of the Douro River, directly opposite Quinta do Vesúvio. Andrew James Symington and his family loved to walk in the ruggedly beautiful hill country around Senhora da Ribeira, having travelled upriver from Bomfim by train and boat, a tradition kept alive by his descendants.
The Senhora da Ribeira wines are made at the property’s specialist winery where the grapes are trodden and fermented in modern lagares.

Macro Mondays: Photographic Equipment
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!♥
Remote cabins / vacation homes are nestled in the trees, along the banks of the scenic Pitt River.
Most are accessible only by boat.

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.

In aller Abgeschiedenheit an der Elbmündung im Landkreis Stade: Der alte Leuchtturm Balje.
The old lighthouse Balje a little remote at the mouth of the Elbe in the district of Stade.
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.
