By remote shooting with Playboy Cybergirl Muirina Fae, model/hair/makeup
Last year I participated in a remote workshop shoot with model @muirinafae and coordinator @darwinimages. Because I was operating in completely unfamiliar waters, using methods and gear completely new to me and a model 3400 km away from me, I learned a great deal. Plus I gained a newfound appreciation for my old familiar gear! :-)
The now disused 'Our Lady of the Braes' Roman Catholic Church, aka Lochailort Chapel or Polnish Chapel.
Built to serve the now deserted townships of Ardnish and Polnish, this lone monument to the former inhabitants of the empty landscape has a poignant significance. (M Miers) The church also featured in the film Local Hero starring Burt Lancaster.

That's the first word that comes to mind when describing the view from the South Rim. It makes me feel as if I'm overlooking an area that has been seen but not explored by man. I think there's one trail (unseen here) that passes through, but it's not for day hikers such as myself.
The region is described as the "South Rim", which I actually haven't reached yet. This scene is from the southwest portion of the trail, looking west. The ridges faintly seen in the distance are in Mexico, with the Rio Grande flowing from right to left just in front of them.
Big Bend National Park, Texas.
A Scotrail Class 158 crosses the remote Scottish Highlands nr Achnasheen, on the Inverness to Kyle of Lochalsh line.
As the rain heads in, the two walkers stop and watch the train pass by, then continue their way.
The scenery along this line from the train window really is stunning.
I've finally got myself a remote control for the Nikon. (I did Day 1 on the Canon using the remote but since then they've all been 10 second dashes or arm's length points...)
I was just messing about with the remote and the 50mm lens and came up with this one - which I rather like. It's sort of how I think I look..?
And I certainly look more cheerful than yesterday eh..?
On a rainy afternoon in the Omo Valley, in a remote corner of south-western Ethiopia, I was visiting a Daasanach settlement not far out of the market town of Turmi.
I was told that this man’s shoulder- and chest-scarring represented his accomplishments in inter-tribal warfare, although his decorative back-scars looked the same to me as those I had seen on many of the villagers.

Fog is gently floating amidst the coniferous tree woods in Valea Draganului, Apuseni Mountains, Romania.
The wild Pacific Ocean and an image of Ship's Landing, Pitcairn Island. I always advice against shaking Polaroids, but sometimes I roll them on purpose to create emulsion splits like this - I wanted it to look rocky and eroded like the sea had gotten to it, a bit like the remote island of Pitcairn itself. Happy 'Roid week!
If you think that this picture is magic, it's maybe that there's a trick to it.
Back in Yangshuo, China, I was looking for the best opportunity to take an above average sunset picture.
And given the spectacular nature of the surrounding area, it should have been fairly easy.
Well, it wasn't, mostly because it's impossible to climb on those limestone peaks to get a clear view. But no need to panic.
So I'm riding my rented bike. The sunset show has already begun. I'm sweating because the more it goes, the more I think that this entreprise will surely fail. When I see a dilapilated building on the side of the road.
In it, it seems possible to reach the roof so I'm going, only to find myself in the company of the picture enthousiasts club of Yangshuo, about eight people, all equiped with cameras ranging from brand new and extremely expensive to a hundred years old and unbuyable.
And from there, not only do we overlook a picturesque pond in front of the limestone peaks, but the group is also connected to the chinese man on the bamboo raft with talky walkies.
That helps if you want that man going a bit on the right, a bit on the left, raising an arm, or taking whatever position that would look good in a picture.
So there you, that's the trick.
Welcome to the remote controlled perfection.

On Saturday I participated in a remote workshop shoot with model @muirinafae and coordinator @darwinimages. Because I was operating in completely unfamiliar waters, using methods and gear completely new to me and a model 3400 km away from me, I learned a great deal. Plus I gained a newfound appreciation for my old familiar gear! :-)
In this view there are no buildings, roads, footpaths or any sign of people apart from our insignificant tents to the bottom left. Standing in this place and knowing that it has looked this for thousands of years is a fantastic experience, particularly with an absolute firecracker of a sunset!
The workshop participants almost enjoyed this as much as me!
Early May 2020: the authorities strongly suggested that those who could work from home, should do so.
My wife was an "early adopter" and was quick to establish a "home office."
Due to my line of work, I could unfortunately not "harvest the benefits" of that, but worked weird shifts and long hours in order to be able to be home too, to the extent possible.
Now, almost three years later, "hybrid working" is a well working concept at many workplaces so she's at the home office a couple of days a week.
For me, remote work is not possible, so I've figured out my own "hybrid" work model: as little as possible and strategically planning hard to get fired.
Unfortunately, my bosses are not exactly keen on the latter.
These more than 10,000 identification tags (dog tags) represent those service members from North Carolina who have died far from home in their efforts to protect human rights and freedoms.
UP 700 and 573 (ex Missouri Pacific and Southern Pacific, respectively) are on the end of a baretable consist as they reposition it at the Denver Intermodal Terminal. The two locomotives have been upgraded for remote operation, and the engineer can be seen standing on the side of 700 with the control pack around his neck.
