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.
An iconic view of the Lower Falls of the Yellowstone river seen from the Lookout Viewpoint.
This is the spot where Thomas Moran painted the Lower Falls to inspire Congress in 1872. The painting played a crucial role in convincing the Congress make Yellowstone the first national park. He allegedly wept over the lack of colors in his palette to accurately portray all the hues and tones he experienced and tried to show.
The Red Rock viewpoint is below. An adjacent 0.5-mile trail drops 500 ft to Red Rock for even closer views – the average age of the crowd plummets with the elevation (it’s hard on the knees). The trail was closed to maintenance when I was here this trip. Hope it's open on my next trip, as it's the only viewpoint I've not enjoyed.
Friday is here. Have a fabulous day and weekend ahead.
Mt. Walker, located in the Olympic National Forest, is the only peak facing Puget Sound that has a road to its summit. It is densely covered with 100 year-old Douglas-fir trees and Native Pacific rhododendrons. The south viewpoint is at an elevation 2805 feet.
The Hood Canal and the nearer Dabob and Quilcene Bays are the waterways in the foreground and Puget Sound is in the distance. Seattle, 28 miles away, is faintly visible at the horizon
I'm not sure how I managed to have my camera on black and white setting when I got to the viewpoint at the top of the mountain in Khao Yai but I still think the picture of the view is quite special
On my fifth day the weather predictions for coming days were awful and I decided to go into the direction of Roros (and later Trondheim), but first I drove along the E27 because it was said to be very scenic. I think that might be true, but with all the rain and darkness, I probably missed the most.
This amazingly beautiful viewpoint was spoiled (in a way), because with sun this is truly spectacular (www.nasjonaleturistveger.no/en/routes/rondane), and it crossed my mind many times I should go back if the weather in Norway turned better and I was around. Unfortunately it didn't so one good excuse to go back!
Norway, a stunningly beautiful country. Around every corner a chance for a scenic image, forcing me from time to time to stop every kilometer to get out of my car, sometimes with screeching brakes, and sometimes forcing me to curse because there was no place to stop.
Lovely valleys, bare mountains and cold winds, snow packs, glaciers, beautiful lakes, and then there are the enchanting fjords that never stop to amaze. The most beautiful country of Europe, for me no doubt about that, with only one minor aspect, which is the weather. During my month of traveling I only had 4 really nice days, the rest of the time clouds, rain, and very changeable! Still no regret, and I will go back to make even more than the 3500 pictures that I took this time.
Another very active vacation that took me to the south west up to Trondheim in a sort of triangle between Oslo- trondheim and Bergen with the whole route visible here (www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10153668247101759&set...).
For those of us who are hikers, we're always looking for that higher ground to afford a better view. A group of house sparrows were hanging together in a bush by the path, with one large rock very close to the path. These sparrows would take turns flying over to the rock and perching for a bit, then trading off with another.
The Norwegian Wild Reindeer Center Pavilion was opened in 2011. Located on Tverrfjellet with a spectacular view against the Snøhetta mountain massif.
Back to my trip to Italy last September - I hadn’t finished with my pictures from there but, as usual, had travelled somewhere else afterwards and forgot about them! This is the viewpoint of beautiful Vernazza.
For a photo story of my visit to Cinque Terre:
A view of the Phetchabun Mountain range from the Khao Kho viewpoint.
Wikipedia: Khao Kho is a district (amphoe) of Phetchabun province, northern Thailand. The name of the district comes from Khao Kho, a peak in the Phetchabun Mountains, named either after Livistona speciosa, a kind of palm tree, or after the Ceylon oak. Both species are known as kho (Thai: ค้อ) in Thai and are abundant in the area.
Between 1965 and 1984, this mountainous area was a battleground in the fight between the Thai communist party and the Royal Thai Army.

Once again I just can say that a dream came true for me to visit this wonderful place. We stay one night at this viewpoint in a little house with a fan. I would have slept in the tent or just stayed up all night so I could be there. It was simply breathtaking…
I would like to come back in the late spring season for the different atmosphere, colors and to visit some other viewpoints in the near.
Thank you for your visit, faves and comments!
I can never resist a short stop at the roadside viewpoint on the road from Windermere to Bowness. it must be one of the most photographed scenes in England. The fells range from Wetherlam on the left, through Crinkle Crags and Bowfell to the Langdales on the right.
