New Plymouth's Paritutu Rock is the remains of an ancient volcanic crater and it has an almost vertical challenging climbing track on one side leading to 360 degree views from the top.
hard to believe that this shot is pretty level.
when the stateline and occasionly the peanut come by you have to stand as far back from the tracks as possible, because sometime they spill their load from the hoppers.
i chased the state line from the amtrak station to the south side.

It looks like a badly laid brick wall, but its actually rock strata protruding from the beach at Crackington Haven in north Cornwall.
For the Macro Monday's theme of 'Rock'.
This is a rock or pebble that I found at Overton Mere , the Gower Peninsula on my very first WelshFlickrCymru Photo Meet in 2010. I brought it home as a trophy , but also because it intrigued me having studied Geog/ Geology in my student days.
South Gower is predominantly made up of Carboniferous Limestone complexly folded, in which synclines of Millstone Grit shales form embayments and depressions which are visible in this. Original shot in comments.
I hope it's acceptable to have included this old fossil's hand for the group.
This rock reminded me of a Ship wrecked on the sand.
Thought I'd play about with HDR a little to continue on that good old learning curve. Couldn't get this scene to work from single image (too dark maybe) so decided to blow it out for fun
Got to get away from rocks and beaches!!!
California's Red Rock Canyon State Park features scenic desert cliffs, buttes and spectacular rock formations.
The park is located where the southernmost tip of the Sierra Nevada converges with the El Paso Mountains.
Each tributary canyon is unique, with vivid colors, and there always has been lots of camping spaces when we've been there.
Entered in the TMI contest: Travel Tales.
I've been to New Mexico a couple of times and I'm always amazed at the great variety and beauty of natural formations seen throughout.

T4 dropped their manifest at the siding north of town and brought their cut of military vehicles into town as a unit train. Here it crosses over the Rock River, with WAMX 4187 leading 4176 and GMTX 2322
4187 and 4176 are supposed to be shipped off to Agawa Canyon in Canada, so it was worth my time spending my day chasing them
One more from the Rock Pool at Malibu Creek State Park.
After going here last week, I rewatched Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, over Thanksgiving Weekend, and amazingly, it still holds up after all these years.
The cliffs that surround the Rock Pool are where Butch and Sundance made their spectacular leap to evade capture by "those guys," including the one in the white hat, Joe Lefors, and the famous Indian tracker, Lord Baltimore, who wind up following them all the way down to Bolivia.
Reached Explore No. 83 on Thursday, December 3, 2015.
Thanks for all your views and faves!
Taken at Merewether Beach, New South Wales, Australia.
The outer part of the rock platform is accessible at low tide and there are some interesting rock patterns and pools to see.
As always, thanks for any comments, views or favorites, they are much appreciated!

I'm no expert, but this looks like a quartz with bands of iron oxide.
HMM! Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments -- I appreciate them all.

Located on the shore of Lake Erie in downtown Cleveland, Ohio, the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame attracts more than 500,000 visitors annually. With its glass pyramid design by architect I. M. Pei, the Hall opened its doors in September, 2005. The red, “Long Live Rock” block-letter sign is six feet high and 78 feet long, and was added to the Hall’s main plaza in late 2016.
It was a dreary, rainy day when my wife and I visited the Hall last month, so I’ve amped up the edges and colors a bit with this image. :-) The structure in the background at left is First Energy Stadium, home of the Cleveland Browns professional football team.
This is another species that benefits from washed-up seaweed or wrack and is often found feeding there, despite its name. It is, however, found mainly along rocky coastlines and it breeds in rock crevices and debris along the shoreline
This is from the rock stacking festival. So, they were doing more than stacking rock. ..lol..Who knew I would find a bench at the rock stacking festival..;) I know you're laughing..;) Anyway, I had a great time. Got a little sunburned. I put some lotion on but I may have waited too long to put it on.
