This is a harbour for small boats in Friedrichshafen, Lake Constance. Due to water level or temperature changes, the ice was moving and making cracking noises. You could really feel the force of the ice as the ground was shaking at little.
Picketpost Mountain on the horizon to the south of this old corral.
I do not know the history of this corral only that its marked on several maps as "ruin".
This statue is part of a memorial, that has been built in the 1930s to commemorate the 5000 fallen men of the 130th infantry regiment.

On the road to Shiprock from Gallup there are several rock formation that make for a slow drive as you have to stop every five or ten minutes to snap some shots. Powerlines and signage pollute a lot of possible shots but you still can not drive straight thru anymore then you could thru Monument Valley.
We were on our way from Phoenix to Mesa Verde in Colorado.
After looking through the images taken this day, this rock is twenty minutes travel time north of the rock formation known as Shiprock.
I can not remember if that puts this north of the town of Shiprock or not.
If anyone has an idea as to whether this is north or south of the town or even better if you know the name for this formation let me know.
Turns out I was all wrong. Wrong wrong wrong.
This rock is not only twenty minutes of Shiprock but two hours and twenty minutes north which places this in Colorado and not New Mexico. Sorry for misrepresenting this image but after seeing this image from flickr user Nihihiro & Shihiro I looked at some maps and my exif data closer and realized I hadnt read the hour stamp after the last image of Shiprock correctly and assumed both images were taken within the same hour. Looking a topographical map of the area backs this up as there are no such features to be seen until north of Shiprock near the border of Colorado.
My apologies for anyone who might have gone in search of this rock due to my memory lapse.
Also apologies to my wife, she is the one who shot it, but I was the one who bungled the details.
Just traveled back thru that area, the rock is called Chimney Butte.
These mushrooms were growing out of a dead tree stem. I liked how they were growing so tight to the decaying wood, trying to shelter themselves from the elements.
As I tore the last vestiges of photonic creations from across the Gap of Ages, I could see where the mending in the Fabric of the Multiverse was making itself known. The Multiverse was healing quickly. Too quickly, in fact, for me to gather much more information about our parallel Ages.
Alas, I can only hope that, with time and luck, yet another sharing between ages will be possible. Until then, perhaps we can glimpse the possibilities from these, the very few, photonic creations I was able to collect.

The clouds were painting everything they could eclipse a dark black against the sunlit background on our drive to Utah through Monument Valley.
As I watched Rachel Brice and her Indigo Bellydance Company I was struck by the primal timeless tribal - ness of their performance. To express that feeling in image I knew what I wanted.
I am seeking to explore the outer edges of the visual experience. To convey something we know culturally.
As I worked through the images from the Indigo dances I sought to dig deeper and deeper into the image, and to end up with work that shows these great dancers rising up from the earth and into being.
After shooting a short video for LensWork Magazine I stayed in the Brooklyn Roundhouse to work a few more images.
It is a VERY thrilling thing to be published by what I feel to be the very finest photographic arts magazine. My portfolio of over 30 images "In the Railyard" will be shared with LensWork Extended subscribers in their #78 Sept-Oct 2008 issue
