Photo from Dombås - Norway

December 2020

Remote shooting, using Canon Camera Connect and Canon R6 eye focusing.

The photographers were stood well away watching the mist beginning to lift on Derwent Water in the Lake District National Park. They were operating the cameras on remote control as the sun was just beginning to have an impression on the mist.

 

Derwent Water is one of the principal bodies of water in the Lake District National Park, measuring approximately 3 miles (4.8 km) long by 1 mile (1.6 km) wide and is some 72 feet (22 m) deep.

To travel to the remote Kimberly region of north west Australia, one of the worlds last frontiers, is an adventure in itself. This is a reflective shot I took from a zodiac meandering through the mangroves in late fall (southern hemisphere). The rock formations in the Kimberly were deposited up to 1.75 billion years ago by major river systems that flowed from north to south across the whole region.

The last time I showed you a waterfall was 15th November 2019 😯

 

Since they are one of my favorite subjects to photograph I had to change that quickly 😄 So here you go, one of the most remote yet beautiful waterfalls Europe has to offer!

The Gergeti Trinity Church, located in Georgia, is situated on a mountain top near the village of Gergeti, near Stepantsminda Kazbegi in the Caucasus region, at an altitude of about 2,170 metres. The fog in the foreground of the photo enhances the mystical character of the location, while the snow-capped peaks and the dark silhouettes of the church emphasise the dramatic atmosphere of the landscape. This area is popular with hikers and photographers for its breathtaking views and historical value. The impressive snow-capped peaks of Kazbek Mount Kazbek in the background are hidden by the fog. The Georgian Orthodox church was built in the 14th century and is a beautiful example of medieval Georgian architecture. The church is an important national symbol of Georgia and attracts many pilgrims and tourists every year. Behind the Gergeti Trinity Church lies Kazbek (in Georgian: მყინვარწვერი, Mkinvartsveri), with an altitude of 5,054 meters one of the highest and most famous mountains in Georgia and the Greater Caucasus. Although the mountain is hidden in this photo, Kazbek is known for its impressive presence and mythological significance. Kazbek is an extinct stratovolcano. The name Mkinvartsveri means the Icy Peak in Georgian. The mountain is popular among mountaineers and adventurers. The standard route for the ascent usually starts from Stepantsminda, with the Gergeti Trinity Church serving as the starting point. Kazbek is often covered in snow and ice, which adds to the spectacular and mysterious appearance of the region. On clear days, the summit offers beautiful panoramic views of the Caucasus.

De Gergeti Trinity Church, gelegen in Georgië, bevindt zich op een bergtop bij het dorp Gergeti, nabij Stepantsminda Kazbegi in de Kaukasus-regio, op ongeveer 2170 meter hoogte. De mist op de voorgrond van de foto versterkt het mystieke karakter van de locatie, terwijl de besneeuwde bergtoppen en de donkere silhouetten van de kerk de dramatische sfeer van het landschap benadrukken. Dit gebied is geliefd bij wandelaars en fotografen vanwege het adembenemende uitzicht en de historische waarde. De indrukwekkende besneeuwde toppen van de Kazbek Mount Kazbek op de achtergrond zijn door de mist niet zichtbaar. De Georgisch-orthodoxe kerk is gebouwd in de 14e eeuw en is een prachtig voorbeeld van middeleeuwse Georgische architectuur. De kerk is een belangrijk nationaal symbool van Georgië en trekt jaarlijks veel pelgrims en toeristen. Achter de Gergeti Trinity Church ligt de Kazbek (in het Georgisch: მყინვარწვერი, Mkinvartsveri), met een hoogte van 5.054 meter een van de hoogste en bekendste bergen in Georgië en de Grote Kaukasus. Hoewel de berg op deze foto verscholen is, staat Kazbek bekend om zijn indrukwekkende aanwezigheid en mythologische betekenis. Kazbek is een uitgedoofde stratovulkaan. De naam Mkinvartsveri betekent de IJzige Top in het Georgisch. De berg is populair onder bergbeklimmers en avonturiers. De standaardroute voor de beklimming begint meestal in Stepantsminda, waarbij de Gergeti Trinity Church als startpunt dient. Kazbek is vaak bedekt met sneeuw en ijs, wat bijdraagt aan de spectaculaire en mysterieuze uitstraling van de regio. Op heldere dagen biedt de top een prachtig panoramisch uitzicht over de Kaukasus.

After Union Pacific purchased C&NW I tried to shoot North Western units when I had the opportunity, such as this image on the turntable at Superior (Itasca) in August 1996.

* Because of its remote and restricted breeding grounds, the Harris's Sparrow was one of the last North American species to have its nest discovered. The first nest was found in 1931 at Churchill, Manitoba, by soon-to-be Cornellian George M. Sutton.

* The Harris's Sparrow is the only bird species that breeds in Canada and nowhere else in the world.

* In winter flocks, Harris's Sparrows maintain linear dominance hierarchies that determine access to food and roost sites. The most dominant birds are the oldest males, and they also have the largest bibs. If first winter birds have their feathers dyed black, creating an artificially large bib, they rise in the dominance hierarchy.

 

* They nest in an open cup of mosses, small twigs, and lichens, lined with dried grass and often some caribou hair. Placed on ground, sunken into moss and lichens.

The mist was rising off the creek, which created areas of soft focus amongst an otherwise crisp shot. 20171210BullCreekPsDxoLr4

Somewhere north of Ketchikan, AK

 

Have a peaceful day, everyone...

Those who think that Iceland’s been ruined by tourists just need to venture further north. the land of otherworldly vistas, air travel-disrupting volcanoes and polite, stylish Vikings – already feels remote.

In Westfjords, a lonely peninsula that juts out like a thumb into the Denmark Strait toward Greenland, it seems even more so. Here the weather can change in a heartbeat – sunny afternoons quickly swallowed by icy winds and low clouds filled with fat snowflakes.

It’s six hours by road from Reykjavik, the Icelandic capital, but be warned: Driving the twisting routes of Westfjord’s wind- and snow-whipped mountain passes can be hair-raising.

For those who make the journey (a four-wheel-drive vehicle is recommended, as is a sense of adventure) the region’s natural features, eating options and activities are worth the white-knuckle ride. the photo was taken by Dynjandi waterfall

Running through the swamps and spruce trees of the Canadian Shield at 50 Miles per hour, VIA №606 is just 20 miles out of its northernmost station, Senneterre. The train is loaded with about 11 passengers bound for various stops along the way. Altough it no longer serves a Transcontinental route, №606 Is still just as important and acts as a lifeline for the communities along the old NTR route in Northern Quebec.

 

Stay tuned for the rest of the adventure.

Not as remote as some but remote enough.

'The Iron Pot is a small flat sandstone island with an area of 1.27 ha in south-eastern Australia. It is part of the Betsey Island Group, lying close to the south-eastern coast of Tasmania around the entrance to the River Derwent. It is the site of Iron Pot Lighthouse Tasmania's first lighthouse.'

Ci sono momenti, all'alba, in cui si vede nettamente il confine fra il regno del sole e quello delle ombre. Le nuvole sospese nel mezzo di due mondi, sembrano la porta per entrare in un mondo fatto di sola luce.

Have a lucky day

Sometimes you have to get lost in the process of finding yourself. No shortage of remote forest trails to do so around Northern BC.

Even this cold remote landscape can't escape the impact of mankind.

Looking from Coconuts to Cocquette Point at low tide

Looking North West across the top of the North Pennines in Northumberland, north of Derwent Reservoir. Felt pretty remote, especially with the low cloud.

Take care

This is a side view of the remote and deserted Hypapantē monastery in Meteora, Greece, at sunset. In 1367 the abbey was nested within the yawning cave of a craggy rock formation in the same way an eagle would build its aerie (aka aërie, eyry) upon a clifftop.

 

Hypapantē is the Greek word for “Candlemas” (Luke 2:22–38). The abbey had been destroyed by fire in 1809 on the instructions of a notorious Ottoman bully, based in Ioannina, then ruined. It has remained uninhabited ever since 1809, despite being restored in 1995-2000. An elevator now stands where a rope ladder once used to hang from.

 

Meteora is the name of the group comprising many impressive and lofty rock formations: The height of the sandstone megaliths ranges between 1,000-2,067 ft (300-630 m). The rock masses were formed 60 million years ago, are geologically unique and listed in UNESCO world heritage sites.
