Richard, semi-retired adventurer living in #Spain. Enjoys #hiking #backpacking #mountains . Also #photography #webdev #linux #foss #tech. Grumpy old man!
We had an amazing encounter with a Bearded vulture (Lammergeier) yesterday in the Sierra Nevada mountains. Of course I had the small point & press camera rather than my usual birding lens and camera. The sky was awful for bird photography. But what mattered was the encounter. It's always so special when an unexpected wildlife encounter happens. image #Nature #Birds #Spain #Wildlife #Photography #Naturephotography #Birdphotography
A visit back to middle England for me this week. It's nice to see friends and family but I don't enjoy the crowds, costs and stresses, which are somewhat alien to me living in rural Spain. What England does have though is an interesting, beautiful and historical network of canal waterways. A heritage from its industrial past. Here's a couple of shots from a short walk I did today. #canals #narrowboats #waterways #england
Photos from the Tabernas desert badlands hike I did a few days ago. The whole area is a a chaotic mass of broken rock and battered, crumbling cliffs #hiking #walking #deserts #spain #landscape #photography #landscapephotography
Today I hiked in a place close to my heart and stood in the exact same footsteps as Clint Eastwood and Eli Wallach in "The Good, the Bad & the Ugly". This view never fails to stir the senses, I love it here. Tabernas Desert, Almeria, #Spain. #hiking #walking #landscape #photography #landscapephotography #outdoors #deserts image
Patagonia Image 4 This image brings back quite emotive memories for me & conveys the full emptiness that is the Southern Patagonian Icecap. Life here is very simple, arrive at camp, build snow walls, eat, drink & sleep. Sometimes we have sheltered for days in blizzard conditions. You can't afford a mistake, being 3+ days from human settlements. Snow walls ... & who'd have thought there's so many technicalities in their construction? #Expeditions #Patagonia #mountains #landscapephotogaphy image
Patagonia Image 3 One year we arrived at the Cirque de las Altares during a blizzard. We hastily made camp and tried to warm up in our tents and sleeping bags. We hadn't really appreciated the wonderful situation we were in until next morning when we woke up to reasonably clear skies and the magnificent Cerro Torre coated in a thick layer of rime ice. #patagonia #landscape #landscapephotography #mountains image
