One of the less obvious viewpoints on Phuket is this one at the top of a windy road on the South East corner. The view is wide ranging - you can see as far away as Phi Phi Island and Krabi from here
We haven't really had much proper winter weather yet this year, apart from one night when it briefly snowed and then melted very quickly. So I have had to go back a couple of years for a seasonal image this year. This was the view one cold and pale morning looking north along the main ridge of the Malvern Hills from the ice covered Iron Age Hill Fort that is Herefordshire Beacon towards Worcestershire Beacon in the distance on the left.
Hope you have a good one!
A couple painting their metal gate on the street in a quiet cul-de-sac. I was not sure whether or not to publish this image, perhaps for obvious reasons. I then decided to do it but replace the anodyne and featureless grey sky by a more dominant second-hand sky (using AI) that would take some of the visual flak. Perhaps I have ended up in a rather uncomfortable place. Leica M8, Voigtlander AS 2.8/90.
Punkt widokowy w Tajpej. Można nawet samego siebie obejrzeć :-)) /
Viewpoint in Taipei. You can even see yourself :-))
Back in the early days of Bellingham this viewpoint was the one that was visited by everyone who had a car. I imagine back then the trees weren't nearly so tall for even standing at the top of a tower doesn't give uninterrupted views any longer
This is a panorama made up of five simple shots. Hugin with a Triplane projection (parameter=53) was used to build the panorama. Darktable was used for the edition. You can read additional technical information in my profile (about section).
This the the Chilean Viewpoint building in Benmore Gardens which I was lucky enough to catch during a colourful sunset.

A view from Barne's Gap in the Sperrins, Northern Ireland.
An account of my weekend in the Sperrins:
Taken from the Rohrhardsberg (1163m), this photo shows some of the wildflower meadows, and the "Schänzlehof", the still operational farmhouse in the mid of the Black Forest with the highest altitude.
You can also see the winding road that we followed as part of the walking trail (called "U(h)rwaldpfad").

This viewpoint in Goreme, Cappadocia affords panoramic views of the town and the distinctive 'fairy chimneys' many of which were used as dwellings until fairly recently
We had this viewpoint entirely to ourselves this June evening. There are other more popular viewpoints but I was very grateful to my brother-in-law for showing me this one. To the far right of picture you can see a glimpse of Mount Baker, while the distant mountains in centre picture are in Canada. Over to the left of picture are the San Juan Islands
Bobbejaankrans viewpoint. At the foot of the hill the almost dried up Timbavati river. Just a small stream was left.
Bobbejaankrans viewpoint. It's at the end of the winter season in the Krugerpark and the Timbavati river at the foot of the hill stands almost dry.

Four specially commissioned sculptural seats by John Kennedy on the infamous A939 Lecht Road which sits at 637m above sea level offers spectacular views towards Corgarff Castle. Corgarff Castle was originally built in 1550 by the Forbes clan and has been a site of great significance for several tumultuous events throughout its history. Though small in scale, the white-harled Castle stands in stark isolation from its surroundings and has a monumental and evocative presence in an otherwise almost uninhabited landscape.
The Watchers installation has a significant relationship with the Castle, which was already established by the existing standing stone sculpture `A Moment in Time` by Louise Gardiner which was designed to frame telescopic views of the Castle. The Watchers adds some new but similar formed cowels clustered on the hillside close to the existing standing stone.
These contain seating and provide hooded shelters for individuals in a wind and snow-swept environment.
Each cowl is formed like origami from folded sheets of steel.
As a group, the cowls contribute to the evocative atmosphere of the site.
The abstract nature of these enveloping cowls invites various interpretation as to what they might be: a henge, a herd on a hillside, armoured figures, helmets, a group of martial figures, tents, crows, ruins, standing stones or whisky stills....
Teamwork..............Dave Constable had his shots in the bag and was giving out welcome black coffee (thanks Dave) , an anonymous lady and her headlights on foreground lighting, me on the timer and a fieldmouse at my feet, checking composition. We had a great time at Reculver............:-) The red lights on the horizon are warning lights of the local windfarm.

Novigrad na Dobri is now little village along the river Dobra and the historical roads Karolina (1726th to 1732nd), situated in a beautiful valley underfloor the once important fortified medieval town of the same name. Even earlier, the whole place, including a castle and a parish, simply called Dobra, after the river that flows through it. At the edge of the Novigrad place passages and other old roads, Louisiana (1803rd to 1811th), and since 2001 a beautiful view of the vote and the surrounding area is provided with the highway Zagreb - Rijeka.
