Pete and Danni kindly gave me a lens and a fishtank for my birthday, so, as you can see, I have put them to good use. Turns out the lens wasn't waterproof?! Explored!

What's better? The white one or the black one?

This is a remote but beautiful staircase in the Musée du Louvre. Probably made even more remote because of a modern escalator close by. These were once the stairs to the apartment of Napoleon III. Actually they still are but Napoleon III is no longer in residence.
The staircase runs from a permanently closed door in the Richelieu Passage that you can peak through and think about what once was. Then up to the Sculptures Department and up some more to the Decorative Arts Department on the first floor. The stairs end between the galleries devoted to the paintings of the Northern Europe and a passage to the preserved Apartments of Napoleon III. In this view the doorway is the decorative arts department and the sculpture court is just below.
There is so much architectural history and so many grand staircases in the Louvre that I can't find out much more than the fact that these stairs were designed by Hector Lefuel. I did find out that it was built between 1852 and 1858 in the north wing or the Nouveau Louvre. Designed as a proper approach to the first elected President of France and completed just after that President decided to appoint himself Emperor of the French.
The staircase was designed for the "New Louvre" because there was an older wing and the original staircase called "escalier de bibliothèque" went up to the imperial library until it was burned down in a revolt. Years before the destruction of the library both Ben Franklin and Thomas Jefferson must have been frequent visitors. After the new construction French citizens must have looked up those stairs and then the message was clear, someone very important is up there.
When I was out shooting something else, I took this as a test shot of sorts but it ended up looking nice enough to keep!

The ancient, weathered Bynguano ranges. At least by my standards this was very remote, very hot, harsh county.

Meet Kaisa, the ultimate thrill-seeker – lover of surprises and adventurer extraordinaire! For the past 17 years, she's been tearing up the hill tracks on her trusty dirt bike, a skill she picked up from her dad. But Kaisa's not just about adrenaline-pumping rides; she's also a connoisseur of wanderlust, globe-trotting through several countries before making her way Down Under. Adding to her adventurous spirit, she immersed herself in ten months of farm work in the remote outskirts of Perth, in the middle of nowhere!
From the quaint corners of Estonia to the wilderness of Perth and now soaking in the vibes of Sydney, her journey is nothing short of epic. Her dad, her lifelong mentor, not only taught her the ropes of dirt biking since she was 10 but also instilled in her the invaluable life lesson: "there's a solution for everything." Despite taking a tumble or two in her younger days, Kaisa emerged unscathed and stronger, now ready to conquer the globe solo.
Kaisa's most remarkable feat? In 2018, while in Sweden, she conquered one of the tallest concrete hills without a single spill. Yep, you read that right – she's a pro at hill gliding! Kaisa's remarkable achievements and zest for life make her one heck of an inspiring trailblazer.

Poem.
As a weather front edges the western fringes the sun breaks through, reflecting a silver carpet, from the Ardnish Peninsula to this quiet beach.
Five or six layers compose this starkly simple scene.
All supplement and complement the quiet, unspoiled beauty of this place.
In all seasons this wild, untamed coastline delights us with its unbridled purity and permanence.
Sobering and dramatic, such moments never cease
to hang in the memory, and demand a return visit.
Quark Expeditions and other ship operators provide support to researchers with transportation to remote locations. This location featured a camera to monitor the local bird colony. More times than not, polar bears make toys of the equipment. The equipment may make it through 3 seasons. As researchers visit each area, they'll swap out the memory disks.

A remote cottage sits on the shores of Loch Lomond in the shadow of Ben Lomond.
The "cottage" is, in fact, the Loch Lomond Sailing Club building :)
The MaK Di8 shunters can be operated away from the cab for shunting manoeuvres etc. A driver is seen operating number 817 remotely. Who wouldn't want one of these as a remote control toy for Christmas?
