As these two were doing at Bryce Canyon National Park.
Every year, Bryce Canyon National Park awes visitors with spectacular geological formations and brilliant colors. The towering hoodoos, narrow fins, and natural bridges seem to deny all reason or explanation, leaving hikers gazing around with jaws agape in wondrous incredulity. This surreal landscape is what brings people from around the world to visit Bryce Canyon National Park.
How are those Hoodoos and fins formed? It starts with rainwater seeping into cracks in the rock. The water freezes during Bryce’s cold nights, expands and breaks apart the rock. The deep, narrow walls called “fins” result from rain and snowmelt running down the slopes from Bryce’s rim. Eventually the fins form holes (called windows), and when the windows grow larger they collapse and create the bizarre hoodoos that we see today.

Some of you have asked what happened to Otis and Fleur... They have been staying indoors a lot and I finally decided it was time for them to go and rake the leaves in the back yard. So here they are with their little rake and hoe, but I think it's going to take them a long time with that tiny bucket :)
This picture of my granddaughter was taken back in 2014. I first processed it shortly after it was taken and have redone it a couple of times as my processing skills have improved. Other artists have used the image to paint an oil painting and a watercolor painting. Since the last time I worked with this image my Photoshop skills have improved significantly, thanks to several online course, and I have also added a few tools to my tool box. In the past year I have been focusing on learning texturing, knowledge which I applied generously to this image.
Thank you all for your views, faves, and comments.

6’8d - six shillings and eightpence - was a third of the old pre decimal British pound. Twelve pennies in a shilling. Twenty shillings in a pound. It was all rather complicated but there were certain tricks to make multiplication and addition easier, which I’ve now forgotten. If we were to go back to that system, and nothing would surprise me now, a lot of people would have difficulty with it - there would have to be an app.
I remember 6’8d once being the price of a “single” vinyl record.
A perfect combination. A collectible Ford "hotrod" in brilliant livery, outside the historic Carrick Inn Hotel. This pub is nearly 200 years old, having been established in 1833.
