This remote 17-century inn with a restaurant and guestrooms is set among the moors at the top of a 1732-ft hill, along the famed walking/biking trail of the Pennine Way.
Intel: Ivanov had first alerted Beijing authorities after one of his secretaries began noticing suspicious activity surrounding the Russian Ultranationalists. That secretary tipped off Beijing leading to a private investigation. But 72 hours ago someone tipped him off leading to him fleeing out of Russia and into the Straits Occupation Zone in what was once Turkey. We caught him in Istanbul but he slipped through our grasp and ended up somewhere near Bursa, with multiple blue berets.
Following Ivanov led to a remote hamlet on the border of the Straits Occupation Zone. Once we got there we met the rest of the blue berets that have been running around the city, along with multiple units captured from a Turkestan infantry battalion. Listening to the comms in the area we found just what Ivanov had known. Using his position in the Russian state he had been covering up the Eurasian insurgent movements for the last decade. Apparently the blue beret insurgency is much larger than Beijing thought but that’s a problem for another time. The strike team moved with orders to kill everybody, but Ivanov and one or two others escaped, deeper the conflict ridden Anatolia. So the hunt continues.
Back home from Peru so here's a quick build I pumped out! College starts in a few weeks but I get lugbulk tomorrow so you might see some more scenes or a big build to close out my summer.
The best gift this X-mas? A remote control for my new camera. Here's the shot I took to test out the device.
All I did was set the camera on the back of the couch, set it for "remote with 2 second delay," pressed the shutter release, and walked casually in front of the camera. I like the 2 second delay because it gives me time to put my hand down (so the photo doesn't have me pointing the remote at the camera.
In the woods with Phill this week spending a bit of time with stencils and a bit of a lighter weight kit as i've been getting a bit of Plantar pain in the heel of my left foot. I think carrying a rucksack full of camera kit, lightpainting kit and tripod has started to take its toll on my body. A great chilled night out.

this was taken with my iPhone on a pretty remote drive not too far from where I live.
The air quality from the fires has improved with a on-shore wind blowing..
Had hope to see some deer on this day but only came across a few doe's and fawns, they did not give me much opportunity to photograph them.
Had not been out with the camera much this summer and I really did need this drive. Good for my sole.
Ever since I saw the tiny line of this road on my Travel Map of Mid Wales, I have wanted to explore this route. It is as remote as you can get in the UK outside of Scotland. It crosses the Cambrian Mountains and is truly beautiful in even the dreariest weather.
Pizzo Andolla, Portjengrat in German, 3654m.
View from SE, the summit is the second pinnacle from the left. The great pillar in the center of the image is one of the more important mountaineering route of the area.
Took this shot approaching the small mountain hut “Bivacco città di Varese.” Along the path, I found a crossroad for the trail that leads to the basis of the mountaineering route to the summit of this mountain. Standing in front of that sign, painted on a large flat rock, I realized that I had already been walking for two hours and an half to reach that point, and that to get on the summit of Andolla, along the complex mountaineering route of the Italian side, It might took other eight hours of walking and climbing. Well, to climb Andolla was not in my intentions, but that consideration helped me to realize the dimensions and the severity of this mountain. I could not avoid thinking of the people that climbed this mountain for the very first time, more than one hundred years ago, with ridiculous technical equipment, no helicopters for the rescue, no paved road in the valley below. What an adventure.
A lot of people think that progress has opened new doors to mankind, but, in a certain way, I think it closed a lot of opportunities to see and discover the world and ourselves with a sense of wonder.
To be sincere, I have to admit that, at the beginning of the last century, few people had a car and the possibility to travel here and hike in a single day…. but a long and slow travel can be an ooportunity of another kind…
If you have been reading this till the end, well, excuse me for bothering you

I went out Sunday night as the sky and light looked interesting. This location is very close to my house (about 0.5 miles away) and I had often thought this hut would make a good composition but never really saw the right conditions. Then I saw these clouds and decided now was the time to see if a shot could work. I had to go into a field to get to the right spot and had just set up my tripod and camera when the farmer came up to me. I know most of the farmers locally (some are friends and they let me wonder about) but had not seen this chap before. He was very interested in why I was in the field and what I was photographing. Once I had reassured him that I was just an eccentric photographer who likes taking pictures of clouds, he was fine with it!
Running an SD40-2 (out of frame) via the remote on his chest, a BNSF engineer shuffles hoppers into the South Yard at Alliance, NE. Even with the downturn in coal traffic out of Wyoming, dozens of trains head in and out of the Powder River Basin mines via South Yard each day.
My favorite new model (the Chief), posing with a newly recut one-piece injection M363 Remote Detonator (a.k.a. "Rocket Pistol") and shotgun prototypes.
I'll try to bring some to Brickfair...protos, that is. Pecovam's Master Chief will not leave my sight. ;)
I use an Einstein 640 strobe with a 22" beauty dish & diffusion sock mounted on an Elinchrom Handheld Boom Arm. I typically fire my camera off with a wireless trigger, and that in turn fires my CyberSync™ Trigger Transmitter on my Nikon D800 to fire off my strobe via a CyberSync™ Transceiver. I end up taking several exposures, both high and low, while walking around the vehicle. I'll layer the images in Photoshop and switch each layer to the 'lighten' blend mode. I have been using layer masks to remove some highlight details from the strobe reflection, but I don't always find it works all the time. 1970 Plymouth Duster, 2016 Mountain Thunder Car Show in Old Fort, North Carolina. I shot the car in full daylight with about 5 stops of ND filtration and had the flash power at maximum.

The most remote area in the Australian outback LOL This is a FB image. I couldn't resist and had to share it with you all. I couldn't stop laughing.
Stopped by the remote controlled airfield for short time for the first time in quite a while. A friend of mine was flying a few of the 31 planes he owns. Only got photos of 2 of them while there, the first two red ones and the last six photos here. Fun watching how skillful these pilots are doing aerial maneuvers, takeoffs and landings. I always send any photos I take for them to post on their club site. Sorry for so many photos, just saving to my album. :-)
