The classic location in Eritrea. 442.59 works round the hillside at the Devil's Gate, with the valley stretching out for miles and miles to the left.

Satan's first day at work. First impressions are a bitch. The girls ask each other, "Who's the douche bag with the pitchfork actin' like he thinks he's all hot and whatnot?"

According to legend, the Devil's Bridge (the lower bridge) was built by the devil for the inhabitants of the valley... not without problems.
Above, the new bridge on the road that leads through the Schöllenen Gorge towards Andermatt and the Gotthard Pass.

Devils Tower National Monument June 09 - 1999
Devils Tower taken from the southwest side in the late afternoon sunlight.
When I lived in Seattle and would visit home in the 90's, or would visit Seattle from my hometown, many times I would stop at Devils Tower and do the loop hike around Devils Tower. On this trip I was on my way to visit Seattle, WA.
Scanned from a 35mm negative using a Pentax PZ-10 camera, Pentax FA 28-80mm f/3,5-4.7 lens.
Finally after about two years I got my Nikon snanner to start working again. More coming.

I really don't understand how such a beautiful spot came to be named "Devil's Punchbowl". There does not seem to be anything particularly evil, malicious or even all that dangerous about this location. If anything it is a picturesque gem of a swimming hole. I had never done the "hike" (more of a walk) out to this spot before but as with any return trip I try to mix in at least one new destination. And while the temperature of the water dissuaded following up any notions of jumping in, the color of said water was enough to persuade us to sit here and linger awhile.

The devils were funny in how sometimes they looked like a big rat like this one. Other times like looked like a bear, or a pig or a dog. But their sounds are clearly devils sounds. Sadly they only live 6-7 years.
Located in eastern Wyoming, Devils Tower stands visibly upright within the rolling hill landscape. It was the central backdrop for the movie "Close Encounters of the Third Kind".
Les Devils Marbles se présentent sous la forme d'énormes rochers de granit arrondis, éparpillés à travers une vaste vallée peu profonde, à 100 kilomètres au sud de Tennant Creek dans le Territoire du Nord.

Can there be anything special about a 1,267 feet 386 m high Rock in the landscape?
Some more information from wikipedia on Devils Tower National Monument :
Devils Tower (Lakota: Mato Tipila, which means “Bear Lodge”) is a monolithic igneous intrusion or volcanic neck located in the Black Hills near Hulett and Sundance in Crook County, northeastern Wyoming, above the Belle Fourche River. It rises dramatically 1,267 feet (386 m) above the surrounding terrain and the summit is 5,112 feet (1,558 m) above sea level.
Devils Tower was the first declared United States National Monument, established on September 24, 1906, by President Theodore Roosevelt. The Monument's boundary encloses an area of 1,347 acres (5.45 km2).
Tribes including the Arapaho, Crow, Cheyenne, Kiowa, Lakota, and Shoshone had cultural and geographical ties to the monolith before European and early American immigrants reached Wyoming. Their names for the monolith include: Aloft on a Rock (Kiowa), Bear's House (Cheyenne, Crow), Bear's Lair (Cheyenne, Crow), Bear's Lodge (Cheyenne, Lakota), Bear's Lodge Butte (Lakota), Bear's Tipi (Arapaho, Cheyenne), Tree Rock (Kiowa), and Grizzly Bear Lodge (Lakota).
The name Devil's Tower originated in 1875 during an expedition led by Col. Richard Irving Dodge when his interpreter misinterpreted the name to mean Bad God's Tower. This was later shortened to the Devil's Tower.
Passing vehicles illuminated arrowweed as we shot the Milky Way. Death Valley is such an inhospitable place that early explorers named many features after the devil. These approximately 6-foot-tall clumps of arrowweed were perhaps mistaken in the shimmering heat for corn shocks left to dry after harvest and thus the area was named the Devil's Cornfield. The incessant wind blows the sand away from the root of the arrowweed, leaving the plant on a pedestal of roots and dirt. The native Americans used the stems of the plant for arrows result in the name of arrowweed.
The Devil's Thumb is the rock tower on the Continental Divide, at 12,150 feet. It is a scenic climbing destinations, with views of both the eastern and western slopes, and a view of Devil's Thumb Lake, 1,000 feet below the summit of the tower.

I have driven past this tree on the way to Princetown from Yelverton countless times. Its down in a dip and on the edge of a marsh. I have always thought theres a photo there and this is my effort taken on a dull and flat day.

This is the 'Mountain Devil' protea. aka: 'Lambertia formosa'
Lambertia formosa, commonly known as 'Mountain Devil', is a shrub of the family Proteaceae, endemic to New South Wales, Australia. It was first described in 1798 by English botanist James Edward Smith.
This one was located along a forest trail in the Ku-ring-gai Wildflower Garden, along Mona Vale Road, at St Ives Chase, in northern Sydney.
For information about 'Lambertia formosa' see the Australian Native Plants Society:

One of the earliest descriptions of Devils Kitchen, which involved a collapse event there, was retold by long-term resident Albert E. Thompson (1968), "My parents were living in Sedona in the early 1880s and heard the crash when the spot caved in. Mother said the dust from the cave-in filled the air all day and the sun looked like it was shining through heavy smoke. Her brother, Jim James, was the first one to see the new hole in the ground".
In late 1989, a second historic collapse event occurred at Devils Kitchen, enlarging the opening by as much as 1/3rd. The 1989 event was largely limited to the north wall, where a gigantic block, detached along three bounding walls from its caprock, rotated outward into the opening without dropping to a lower elevation. Edges of the newly broken rocks are highly angular and the surface soil has not yet begun to slough off.
Collapse of the southernmost wall of the sinkhole pre-dated historic collapse events and probably represents an early, formative event in the history of Devils Kitchen. In contrast to the fresh, angular appearance of historically broken blocks, blocks of the south wall display rounded edges and the surfaces carry a patina of manganese oxide that suggests open exposure over several hundred years.
The Devils Kitchen sinkhole is the most active of the seven sinkholes in Sedona. It has an opening 150 feet by 90 feet, with the floor situated 35 to 70 feet below the rim. Lindberg estimates that caverns in the Redwall Limestone, could have volumes on the order of 1.3 million cubic feet (a cave roughly 100 feet high and 130 feet in diameter).
