Coyote (Canis latrans) breaks trail through deep snow along the bank of the Madison River. We watched this female prowling the bank and investigating the water (she may have been one of the Madison’s “fishing Coyotes” but we didn’t actually see her fish) for over an hour.

I've photographed McWay Falls (Big Sur, California) at night more times than anyone else on Earth (and if someone beat me, how come we haven't meet? wink emoticon ), always from the same spot, usually with the same elements (the cove, a rising Milky Way, some sort of illumination, whether artificial or from moonlight), yet every image I've published (quite a few) seems different. From my first attempt (APOD May 7.2013), to the highest resolution night image of McWay that I know (APOD June 29, 2014), to capturing the magic cove and waterfall under a meteor shower, or a star trails composition... you name it... This may be the best way to make justice to such otherworldly place.

 

Saturday night I ended the night at McWay Falls again, and this time I opted for integrating a single shot with star trails captured over a period of about 40 minutes.

The water and snow in the trail reflect the amazing colors of a different light spectrum.

A clear night on the NSW Central Coast last night so I went out to Killcare Beach to shoot the stars. Set the camera up for 45 minutes to do some star trails…with planes and satellites!

Shot with a 7-14mm lens on an Olympus em5 mkii which does all the stacking for me in-camera.

I'm sure he was just showing off for me. I must say I was very impressed.....

 

Thanks for visiting and have a good weekend. Cheers.

The Botkin Trail in the Yalta Nature Reserve is one of the most famous hiking trails in the Crimean Mountains. Its length from Kirov Street to the top of Stavri-Kay aMount is 4.5 kilometers.

The Botkin Trail route was created in 1901 for tuberculosis patients. They could take wellness walks here, so it is also called the "Health Trail". In these places, the phytoncides of the coniferous forest are mixed with the sea breeze, which creates a positive effect for the treatment of lung diseases.

Professor Sergey Botkin was one of the most famous physicians in Russia in the second half of the 19th century. He received the title of academician and the position of physician of the royal family. Since 1870, he has been studying the climate of the Southern coast of Crimea and made a huge contribution to the popularization of recreation and the development of sanatoriums in the Crimea. He was the first to note the healing properties of the air on the Southern coast of Crimea for the treatment of lung diseases.

 

Боткинская тропа проложена по левому берегу реки Учан-Су. Начинаясь у Поляны сказок, она завершается у скалы Ставри-Кая. Правда, завершается условно, поскольку сразу переходит в Штангеевскую тропу, которая заканчивается у водопада Учан-Су. Нередко две тропы объединяют в один маршрут. Это логично, поскольку в противном случае от скалы Ставри-Кая придется возвращаться обратно по уже пройденному пути. Если же идти до водопада, получится круизный маршрут.

Тропу оборудовали в 1901-1902 году силами Крымско-Кавказского горного клуба. В то время активно действовало ее ялтинское отделение. Назвать решили в честь доктора Боткина. Он хоть и жил в Москве, но активно участвовал в исследовании роли Южного берега Крыма как курортологического направления. Получив звание академика, он стал лейб-медиком царской семьи и много времени проводил вместе с ней в Ливадийском дворце.

After reading "Wild", I wanted to experience a little of the Pacific Crest Trail. We hiked up to the trail through snow and ice from Idyllwild CA. The view was worth it!

Spring brings new growth to the spiny stems of Buckhorn Cholla (Cylindropuntia acanthocarpa) and a blossom blaze of Apache Plume. The diplay graces the foothills of the Sandias of central New Mexico at roughly 1800 meters (6000 feet) above sea level.

This image was taken back in the autumn during a mist morning explore of the woods near Stourhead.

Instead of the shortcut to get to this location, I decided to go on further and take the old track instead. That turned out to be a challenge as the track was flooded in some of the places, so slight adjustment to the journey was needed.

Once at the location my aim was to position roughly where I had taken a previous image from (image called Autumn Trail). It was interesting to document the changes that had occurred within a week.

Trains leaving and arriving at victoria station London, I used a ngrad filter just before dark to get smooth sky.

While out shooting the Perseids meteor shower, I set up a second camera to shoot this star trail. All total, 775 images. 10 second exposures with a 2 second interval. About 2.5 hours of the earths rotation. Stacked in Sequator to make the star trail. Shot with a Rokinon 14mm lens. f2.8. iSO 6400.

One of the easier trails in Zion National Park is the Canyon Overlook Trail. You find the trail head at the parking lot on the east end of the tunnel on Utah Highway 9 (Mt. Carmel Road).

(Enlarge the picture and check out the windy road in the canyon below.) This is the view you will be rewarded with when you reach the end of the line.

On the horizon are many formations which have interesting names but my favorite is "The Altar of Sacrifice". You can spot it in the middle. It is the one with 'blood' running down the face of it.
