The Tena Valley runs parallel to the Gállego River, between the Sierras de Tendeñera and Partacua. In the photograph you can see the westernmost part of Tendeñera, with the peaks of Peña Blanca, Peña Rápita and Peña de Hoz. A wonderful viewpoint that leaves no one indifferent.

El Valle de Tena transcurre paralelo al río Gállego, entre las Sierras de Tendeñera y Partacua. En la fotografía puede apreciarse la parte más occidental de Tendeñera, con los picos de Peña Blanca, Peña Rápita y Peña de Hoz. Un maravilloso mirador que no deja indiferente a nadie.

You can climb up to a viewpoint that overlooks Moon Valley. The land is carpeted with pinnacles, densely packed into a relatively small area, urban development is encroaching on this impressive space, the city of La Paz is nearby. May be worth to have a look?

You can view Delicate Arch from upper viewing point, which is about a half mile hike up a hill. Well worth the climb, especially if you're unable to make it up to Delicate Arch itself. The arch is one of the main and most popular of the attractions at this park. The rangers allow you to walk onto the slickrock as long as you do not walk on non-rock surfaces. Sun down time, ended onto a plateau where the arch appeared almost like a vision on top of the cliffs, the deep cliffs under my foot…

 

I posted a photo yesterday, this one is in a bit different view, you can see the tiny Delicate Arch far away in the meddle of the photo… Most people ended up at viewpoint, could not see this view, it took a bit effort to climb to this location, few people did it, you can see three people sitting and waiting for the sunset on the edge of cliffs... Not long after taking this photo, it started raining, no real sunset...

The view from the top of Quercus Rock is awesome as you look straight down Howe Sound with mountains on either side of you.From this viewpoint, we have a 180-degree lookout over Howe Sound. We can also see Anvil Island in the distance directly to the south, and the mountain ranges on both sides of Howe Sound. And if you look carefully down below, you’ll see cars zooming around a corner of the Sea to Sky Highway. We see the road on another photo I shared last week. today i just want to show you a pic with a bench !!! Enjoy!

 

La vue depuis le sommet de Quercus Rock est impressionnante lorsque vous regardez droit vers le bas Howe Sound avec des montagnes de chaque côté de vous. De ce point de vue, nous avons un belvédère à 180 degrés sur Howe Sound. Nous pouvons également voir l'île Anvil au loin directement au sud et les chaînes de montagnes des deux côtés de la baie Howe. Et si vous regardez attentivement ci-dessous, vous verrez des voitures zoomer dans un coin de l'autoroute Sea to Sky. comme sur une de mes photos précédentes. Aujourd'hui je voulais une photo avec le banc !!

The snow made it possible to capture one of my favorite trees (no. 3) from a different viewpoint. The result looks quite good to me.

Moving on to an internationally well known viewpoint of Meteora I was more than happy to stand alone on it. This actual spot used to be crowded with dozens of tourists in the past, prior to the COVID 19 restrictions. Not that day.

I took my time to leisurerly admire the scenery, set up my tripod and work on the conposition of the frame you see in front of you.

 

Location: Meteora, Hellas. Rousanou monastery.

I recently discovered, after living in Tsawassen for 32 years, a viewpoint that I had never been on. Its behind my local library that I visit often, just goes to show you that we only see what we want to see. I was thrilled because I love photographing parking lots and the best way to do that is from a high point. Afterwards I went into the library to warm up because it was sooo cold :)

Ratcliffe-on-Soar Power Station dominates most viewpoints of Old Sawley (Long Eaton) and its surrounding landscapes.

After the heavy rains of mid-February two swans settled on the flooded farmland. I was attracted to the juxtaposition of nature and the industrial dominance of the cooling towers and the chimney (if you look closely to the base of the cooling towers and behind the foliage, you can see two trains passing in opposite directions) – also, the way that the natural light has split the composition in two horizontally with the sunlight bathing the (ugly[?]) manmade construction in warm light, and the cold muted hues of the shade depriving the beauty of nature (the swans) of their moment. It somehow feels like a betrayal.

Panoramic viewpoint at White Cross, near Sidmouth.

Very strong and cold wind blowing up the hill, could hardly keep the camera steady.

I was happy to be a winner in an assignment

Castroviejo, Soria.

 

En Duruelo de la Sierra se puede encontrar uno de los parajes más impresionantes de la provincia de Soria: Castroviejo, sin duda su más firme emblema.

Sin dejar volar mucho la imaginación, estas rocas labradas en la naturaleza por la erosión del viento, la lluvia, la nieve y el hielo, adoptan formas increíbles y fantásticas.

Los amplios prados otorgan al viajero un relajante lugar para realizar una parada entre bosques de hoja perenne y helechos, pero lo más importante e indispensable de esta visita es sin lugar a dudas, contemplar las vistas panorámicas desde su mirador. Ante los ojos se abre un auténtico ‘mar de pinos’ hasta el horizonte.

 

In Duruelo de la Sierra one can find one of the most impressive places in the province of Soria: Castroviejo, undoubtedly its strongest emblem.

Without letting much imagination fly, these rocks carved in the nature by the erosion of the wind, the rain, the snow and the ice, take incredible and fantastic forms.

The wide meadows give the traveler a relaxing place to make a stop between evergreen forests and ferns, but the most important and indispensable of this visit is without a doubt, to contemplate the panoramic views from its viewpoint. Before the eyes opens a real 'sea of pines' to the horizon.

During our trips along the northern coast of Madeira, we never missed to stop at the various 'Miraduros' / viewpoints ;-))

More and more observation points are being set up for nature lovers. Places that are also gladly accepted. Not only by photographers.

 

Immer mehr Beobachtungspunkte für den Naturfreund werden errichtet. Plätze die auch gerne angenommen werden. Nicht nur von Fotografen.

I tried to find a new viewpoint of Bosham Quay so walked around the back of an Oil Seed Rape field opposite the Quay. Some of the flowers are out of focus as I was standing on my tip toes to get a clear view despite being 6ft 3in!
