Saw the sun rising over Flat Iron Mountain at Lost Dutchman State Park this morning and knew I needed a shot. Or 12. Went monochrome because the colors were just not working out.

Remnant of an ancient lake, west of the Great Salt Lake in Utah, USA

For the theme group Fotosöndag on the theme of the week, namely "Flat lay"

This sculpture by Judy Millar is called Call Me Snake.

The sculpture is made of five intersecting flat planes of wood on a steel frame. The panels are clad in printed photographs of brushstrokes created by Millar and magnified by ten. It is Millar's first public artwork and will be on the city centre site for two years.

This has been the warmest spell of February weather I can remember. Warm sunshine and almost flat calm water at Burghead harbour. Global warming for sure...

This is Toronto's own Flatiron Bulding. The Flatiron was constructed in 1897 predating the famous Flatiron Building in NYC.

The Flat Iron Building, in downtown Edmonton. Built in 1913, it's seen two pandemics. It's my favourite corner in Edmonton.

No whining. You just soldier on at the Gibson Block...

The flat hill in the distance is a marvelous formation that can be recognised from miles away. Just to the south of it is located the historic 77 ranch first owned by Peck and Converse. Mike Shonsey of the Johnson County Range War was employed by the 77 ranch. www.wheeler-roots.org/histories/history-shonsey.php

In his book,The long trail from Texas, Ad Spaugh talks of burying a couple children who live with thier mother in a cabin east of Flat Top that took sick and died. They were buried on a pine knoll nearby Flat Top by a crew of sad cowboys.

My Grandmother who knew Ad and sadly recalled visiting with him about the burial. She told me of it before I had ever read the book many years later. Exciting and hard times...

The flats were covered in a layer of water at 1"-2".

Several days of continuous rain led to very high flow rates over Spruce Flats Falls in the Tremont area of Great Smoky Mountains National Park, TN. Even though the water removed a lot of interesting foreground, the warms tones from the mud added another dimension to the image. I've never worked so hard for pictures as I did here, for several reasons. First, my camera started acting very strange the day before at Black Balsam Knob (almost no buttons working, the camera would take a picture when it was turned on, etc.). I think humidity got inside the body during a wet night in the tent. Thankfully, after taking off the lens and removing the battery/memory card, the camera dried out somewhat (still quirky) to a functioning state. To be careful, I held an umbrella over the camera during this particular shoot to keep off the light rain. Holding the umbrella in one hand and manipulating the camera/tripod with the other is hard work!

Spruce Flats Falls isn't marked on a lot of maps of the park for some reason. Maybe it's because the Great Smoky Mountain Institute often uses the falls for photography workshops? I'm not sure. But anyway, here's the directions to the falls: Park in the parking lot next to the Institute in the Tremont area. Follow the signs for Lumberjack Gap Trail up a small gravel road to some more buildings. On the left side the trail continues up, and a side trail marked 'Falls' diverges up and to the right. The trail climbs over a small ridge and down to the falls (about a mile in length, I would say). Hope this helps some of you find the falls, since the park doesn't make it easy.

One of the Copley Mesas, locally called the Copley Flat Tops. This one isn't very flat on top, at least at this end. A little cloud in the sky. Processed in Lightroom, Tamron lens.

Sometimes, I wonder how other creatures see the world.

These Eastern grey squirrels can flat out run straight up and down tall southern pine trees. They are one of the few mammals that can descend a tree head first. They accomplish this feat by turning their back feet around allowing them a better grip.

The salt flats off the Amboy road were covered with water for about a month. It wasn't deep, but was just enough to provide a wonderful mirror-effect.
