Found wandering the wilds of Red Dead Online, admiring the scenery and taking photographs. I post a favourite one every Sunday. Say hi if you see us! (PSN: LoopsUK)

A photograph taken from within a video game. It's a bright sunny day, and a clear blue sky streatches overhead, barely interrupted by occasional fluffy white clouds. Flat green grass streatches away, broken up by bare trees and scrubby bushes. A dirt track in front of the camera has split in two, one arm curving away to the left, the other curving away to the right. Directly ahead, a signpost at the junctions points in both directions towards various destinations.

Two roads diverged in a (marshy plain), And sorry I could not travel both... #RobertFrost

However, in our case, I know we will be back to travel the other one at some point!

A photograph taken from within a video game. Looking down a deeply snow-covered slope that disappears between two rocky cliffs, a solitary line of footprints can be seen in the otherwise pristine surface.

With our Elk guide left long behind, it's a lonely road climbing the slopes of #MountHagen!

A photograph taken from within a video game. It's daytime in a snowy landscape of rocks and pine trees. Lumpy cliffs rise up on the right, the varying angles of rock holding pockets of snow here and there. On the left, low pillows of rock are catching the sun that spills over the cliffs. Bteween these two walls, a path of white snow curves through, while trotting away along it is a cream and brown coated Elk, holding up a fine head of antlers as it watches ahead.

A photograph taken from within a video game. An old fashioned camp has been set up on green grass in front of a gently curved rock. A canvas tent on the left is open at the front, revealing the accoutrements of a bounty hunter. Lying in the grass next to an empty camp chair is a white and grey dog, his head between his paws but still looking alertly ahead. Behind him, a grey and white horse wearing a bridle and sadlle is grazing contentedly.

This #ValentinesDay, send some love to those friends and companions (romantic or otherwise) who look after you and keep you safe through the trials of life, whatever they might be!

It feels like it's not stopped raining in weeks! It certainly looks like the occupants at #hagensorchard need to bring their washing in...

A photograph taken from within a video game. It's daytime on the muddy banks of a river, but heavy skies covered in steely-grey clouds make it dark and dull. Large rocks rise up from the sloping bank, with green grass growing higher up away from the water. In the distance, a tall square cliff is glowing pale grey in the limited sunlight, and a tall column of smoke rises from the top of it towards the overcast sky.

A new month is here, so we're leaving the snow behind for more seasonally appropriate (here at least...) rain.

Heavy skies over the #dakotariver certainly don't stop the bandits.

A photograph taken from within a video game. A wide path cuts through a forest of tall pine trees, leading straight away into the distance. Glimpses of blue sky and fluffy white clouds vare visible above, and white snow lies on the ground below. Bright sunlight is making everything gleam where it strikes, and casting dark pools of shadow elsewhere.

The difference a little snow makes... Just a trail through #talltrees in #westelizabeth, but looking like the path in a wintery fairy tale under a clean coating of snow.

A photograph taken from within a video game. It's day time, and a wide landscape stretches out in front. Close to us, sharp blades of bright green grass reach up through a thin white blanket of snow. Further away small rocks lie at odd angles, and slowly the ground rises until it reaches the base of a tall bluff that rises suddenly from the snowy grouns. The ait is clear and overhead a blue skiy is only partially covered in fluffy white and grey clouds.

Another one from the snow season... #heartland plains looking crisp and clear under bright skies and a light dusting of snow!

A photograph taken from within a video game. It's broad daylight, made even brighter by a dusting of snow and a light fog in the air. In the background an old railway station building emerges from the mist. In the foreground, a pile of old wooden sleepers is surrounded by pieces of wood, crates and other detritus - even a canvas shelter held up on four poles. A railway track passes straight through the middle from left to right, with an old locomotive stopped at the station, looming quietly though falling snow.

The snow may be gone, but we got some good snaps while it was here.

I wonder when the last time a train stopped at #bacchusstation was... The old locos do look good too.

A photograph teken from within a video game. It's day time, but the light is grey and dull, and the dark shapes of trees are disaprearing into a white fog. A dirt track curves away in front, with small scrubby plants pushing up out of a dusting of snow on either side. Riding away along the track is a horse with a white tail and socks, carrying a rider in blue with a black hat. They have panniers laden with odd pieces of equipment hanging from the saddle.

I saw this rider and wondered...are they heading home after a #christmas spent with friends, or perhaps one spent alone in the wilds. Or perhaps they are just on their way to the next job...

A photograph taken from within a video game. It's night time, and in a clearing amongst some trees is an open air camp. Chairs and cut tree trunks are gathered around a camp fire to the left, with wooden barrels, tables and chests in clusters around them. Tucked up against a large tree in the centre of the picture is a small fir tree, decorated with ribbons, candles and small ornaments, casting a pool of light n the snowy ground around it.

Can't quite believe it's #christmas next week..! Our camp is decorated again for the season and looking particularly cosy with the candle-lit tree ๐ŸŽ„

A photograph taken from within a video game. It's in broad daylight in a small glade surrounded my bare-trunked trees that rise to the sky all round. A ramshackle wooden cabin in tucked in to one side, with crates and barrels scattered around the clearing. In the background, flat, swampy water stratches away to a dark mass of treeson the far bank. it looks tropical, but everything is covered in a thin layer of white snow that highlights the edges.

The snow is pretty everywhere, but I still think it's the most unexpected down in #lemoyne. It's usually so warm in the #bayounwa that it feels the most delicate, like it could disappear at any moment...

Thanks so much! So normally there are no seasons, only weather. But at some point in December (it feels really early this year) the snow is turned on, and everywhere goes wintery - at least a little. They also switch out the music in saloons and street musicians for festive Western tunes! It's fun ๐Ÿ˜Š

A photograph taken from within a video game. Taken in broad daylight, two paths converge from left and right, and wind out ahead between rolling slopes of green grass towards two tall cliffs of rock that are disappearing into a white haze. Right in front of the camera, a rough wooden signpost directs travellers along each path, and everything in the scene has a layer of white snow beginning to settle over it.

The snow is back! I've been enjoying the dusting down in #newaustin, where it falls but doesn't settle. As you head east it really starts to stick, especially as you get to #theheartlands ...

A photograph taken from within a video game. A circle of old wooden wagons and canvas tents are pitched in scrubby grass under a wide sky that's covered with patches of dark cloud. The bottom of the clouds are threateningly grey, but a few white puffs are peeking through. In the distance behind camp, red rocks and yellow bluffs rise out of spiny green shrubs, and the colours are shining bright in sun that makes them glow.

Back in my favourite part of the map, all the way down in #gaptoothridge for this one. I think it's the wide open spaces and endless sky overhead that keep drawing me back to #newaustin...

A photograph taken from within a video game. It is night time, and shadows hide the details of the grass in front of a rought fence of vertical planks that runsat an agnle in front of us. But on the other side of the fence, light spills from the windows and doors of a mismatched row of ramshackle houses, and lamps hanging over the doors add more patches of brightness in the dark.

A photograph taken from within a video game. A line of wooden buildings from the old american west run alongside a muddy road. The sky is grey and heavy with cloud, and long streaks of rain are falling across everything. Several people are waiting under the various roofs and porches, leaning on walls and railings as they look out at the rain.

So much rain dumped on us by #stormclaudia this weekend, I couldn't stay quite as calm as the townsfolk of #valentine as they waited for their storm to pass...

A photograph taken from within a video game. It is nightime but lumpen grey rocks can still be seen in the moonlight that gently bathes them. Springing up out of thick green grass in front of them, red poppies and white daisies show up brightly against the dark background.

A photograph taken from within a video game. Two lines of laundry are strung between poles, with some trousers and shirts hung up to dry and a washing tub and soap left on a crate. The area is rural, with green pine trees overlapping their branches behind, and bright green grass below. Perched on each pole and almost glowing against the greenery is a small bird, a yellow one on the left, and red on the right.

A photograph taken from within a video game. A woodland clearing is surrounded by stark black tree trunks, with just the remnants of branches sticking out of them. Tucked into the trees is an old horse-drawn wagon (although there is no horse in sight) that has a fabric awning stratched out from the side and held by two poles. The fabric is sagging, and everything in covered in a light layer of snow.

A photograph taken within a video game. A large low cabin made of horizontal logs sits in front of a forest of tall pines. The roof is covered in grass, as is the groud in front, so the building almost blends into the background. Near the camera, a red and tan husky dog lies on the ground, his white nose pointing away to the right where a path leads towards the building door.

The wallpaper behind is covered in a circular pattern of flowers that look like starbursts, and long dark shadows are being cast over the wall by a brass bedstead to the side. The sheets on the bed are pulled back in a messy pile that hangs off the side.

A photograph taken from within a video game. Tall trees with white bark rise straight up on each side of a muddy brown track, that curves away to disappear behind grass and greenery between their bases. Some of the trees nearest to us are leaning at drunken angles. Behind the green tree tops, a tall cliff of creamy-white rock rises up into a clear blue sky, where two birds, almost dots, are soaring on open wings.

The walls are made up of horizontal wooden slats, painted yellow, and the windows are framed by white shutters. The sky behind is covered by fluffy clouds that are glowing warm orange, but the house and ground in front of it are shaded in a cool blue.

A photograph taken from within a video game. A wide, smooth body of grey water streatches out under a sky that is heavy with grey clouds, broken by long streaks of rain. Two low islands sit on the near horizon. One on the left is covered by a huddle of trees, while the one in the centre is covered in bright green grass that glows against the dark background. Caught in the gap between the two is the dark silhouette of a cargo boat, and reaching down from the clouds to land directly on it, is the end of a brightly coloured rainbow.

Suddenly it feels like #Autumn, with rain lashing down today. But sunny spells mean we also get the occasional rainbow...and sometimes, apparently, what you find at the end of them is a boat!

A photograph taken from with a video game. An open landscape of low rolling slopes in ahead, covered in dry yellow grass. Close to the camera, the grass is green, and a dirt track runs away from the camera from left to right, before it splits to turn right out of frame, or left to wind away through the hills. A rider on a red-coated horse has just appeared to the left, heading towards the split in the track.

A photograph taken from within a video game. The right side of the frame is filled by a stack of log that make up the wall of a cabin, but we can see past it into a recess where a wooden table and chairs are set up next to a window in the wall of the next building. It is night time, and the windows glows with light, and the table and log wall are lit with a warm glow from a lantern we can't see behind us.

The last day of August... Autumn approaches and soon the nights will start drawing in. Our evening tables will be lit by lamps instead of sunlight, like this cosy corner in #FortWallace!
