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.
Seseh Beach, Canggu, Bali
One of the famous beach in Canggu that still undeveloped Pantai Seseh (Seseh Beach ) is rugged and windswept, with dark volcanic sand.
The beach itself is nothing to shout about and locals with gather before sunset to gaze at the waves and the setting sun.
I spent 30minutes walking around the beach looking for some nice spot untill i found this vivid green rock..i was lucky ..there was no body around this spot :D
Have a nice weekend everyone~!

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.
Old rock barn. Think it was abandoned.

It seems like ages since we’ve had a clear enough night for some astro photography, but even though the moon is still quite full there was a window of opportunity before it rose at 12:30 so I visited a beach I’ve been wanting to get to for ages. Shag Rock is situated half-way between Downderry and Portwrinkle and makes for a great subject. You can also see Jupiter shining brightly near the galactic core.
Chicago's Randolph Street Festival 2015 kept two stages rocking to entertain all of us in the crowd today. The band 'Bright Light Social Hour' was the star of them all for me.

I think it's a Rock Wren, but I can't be sure. I remember where I took the photo - rock wren territory - in the oak grass at about 700 feet. The reason this has been in storage so long is that as I photographed the tree stump, this little brown bird came in to see what I was up to, and then took off again. Good enough to keep, but not good enough to post. Still, all I am almost positive about is that it's a female, and the trunk is a century old and very dead oak tree.
This was the week before we left for Yellowstone and the Tetons, and I was practicing with my new SX50. It and I performed beautifully in both parks. Instead of a LBB, the first day in Yellowstone, I got six lifers! Too easy, really. Five Mountain Bluebirds in the first hour, and even an Osprey which perched with the sun in MY eyes. And then cross-bills, woodpeckers, grouse... And few people. The park "opened" the day after we left :-)

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.
An early morning on Bamburgh Beach with the sun catching the rocks. The rocks provide a nice line back to the illuminated Bamburgh Castle. I took this shot after spending a lovely hour watching the sun rise above the Farne Islands and capturing some blue hour and sunrise images. You can just make out some enthusiastic photographers on the upper right horizon on the Dunes, taking sunrise shots of the Castle. This was really one of those spur of the moment shots on leaving the beach, I’m glad I stopped and looked at the line of rocks, it wasn’t one I had planned.
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.

Thanks for all your views and faves!
This scenic little waterfall is located on a path downstream from Mills Shoals Falls. Its a short and easy hike. Just watch out with low hanging tree limbs. Boink!!
I like this photo since I was able to hopefully catch some sky in the little pool in the foreground. Some trees were actually dropping their leaves adding some needed color to the photo.
In Kevin Adams new book he states, "As long as you stay away from the river and any wet rocks, it's just as safe there as on the sloping rock at the base." I should have heeded his warning. Just after this photo was taken I stepped out in front of my tripod and down I went. Deceptively slippery rocks for sure. But no real harm done.

A little tablescrap model I did. This was an experiment with using Power Miner rock monster pieces as microscale rockwork. The clear parts are supposed to be a waterfall but its kind of hard to tell.
A mix of 5 BN locos are lifting a coal train south towards Palmer Lake. 2 manned helpers are on the back.

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.

An unexpected treat while Charles and I were waiting for the full moon to rise in Sedona. Cathedral Rock makes an awesome shadow across the valley floor during sunset.
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.

Managed to get a lot of work done today and still found time to go for a two hour walk this evening and take advantage of the beautiful weather we had today.
It's nice being able to go outside without a jacket and to be out for long periods of time. I do miss this nice weather when winter is around, so I have my fingers crossed that spring is actually here to stay!
Hope everyone has had a good day.
