Small plants on the limestone rock. It's amazing how they can to live there without any ground... Photo was taken inside ruins of Olsztyn castle on The Kraków-Częstochowa Upland :)
Roślinki na wapiennej skale w ruinach zamku w Olsztynie koło Częstochowy. Zawsze mnie zdumiewa, że one potrafią w takich trudnych warunkach znaleźć miejsce dla siebie... :)
Wisconsin & Southern train L867 emerges from Ableman's Gorge near Rock Springs, Wisconsin on October 21, 2024.
All of my trips get a “code name” so when I’m saving files or making plans, labeling it is easier. This summer’s trip was called “Red Rock Summer”. There’s irony, then, in having my first two photos posted from the trip be in shades of deep blue. Time to fix that with a Cathedral Valley sunrise.
Chimney Rock Park, April 2007
Rachelle and I took a day trip to Chimney Rock Park in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. We wanted to take a short trip to get used to traveling with Emily. She did just fine; sleeping in the car most of the way to the park and in her pack on my chest while her mother and I hiked along the trails. Having her on my chest made hiking up and down the trails interesting, since I couldn't see my feet! That will take a bit of getting used to.
The weather wasn't very cooperative. It was cold and blustery, and cloudy, but the views were incredible, nonetheless.

Spider Rock is easily the most photographed part of Arizona's Canyon de Chelly. It's quite the sight at sunset! I captured this shot as the last light of the day cast a long shadow onto the adjacent canyon wall.

A well known and much photographed location, but I have shot this a few times now and not been happy with the results. My intended image was a monochrome LE image, and I did get an image later in the session, but on arrival I was graced with some beautiful light and some great swell; too good not to capture.
Unfortunatley I had to share the place with other 'tourists' intent on climbing the rock and standing around in the shot, but I guess we have to be tolerant of others. We do not own locations, everyone has as much right to enjoy and photograph these locations as we do…… If nothing else they allow us to practice and hone our photoshop skills.

Sunrise at Face Rock State Scenic Viewpoint. The sun rising above the bluffs behind us illuminating just face rock in a golden hue.
What was said to not be in the lead was. But on the Wheeling you sometimes have to suck it up. There is no such thing as a quick drive over to Carrollton, so when you show up and are gifted with this up front, well, you may as well shoot it. The one off "what the hell is that paint job" leads 701 past the marble orchard towards Gambrinus.
Despite all the computations
You could just dance to a rock 'n' roll station
And it was alright...

Another example of my mother's green thumb! This beautiful flower is in the mallow family, I think, but has the wonderful name of rock rose. The vivid pink color of the blooms is stunning. The flower also has a nice texture.

We found this rock while on vacation in Anacortes, WA. One of the locals told us it was a community event. Lots of rocks were painted and then hidden all over the city to get people outdoors and to promote kindness. Sorry this is getting posted so late. I had a very difficult time posting it as Flickr kept saying it wasn't a valid photo. Not sure why. I had to email to my iPad then upload it. The rock is approximately 2". Happy Macro Monday!!

A few days ago, I posted a story about filling my water tank with water I stole from the Walmart sprinkler system. I've had a lot of people warning me that some of the water used in these sprinkler systems is actually recycled. Not clean, drinkable water. It might contain some kind of Bacteria. Well, it smells fine. It are clean and clear. It do tastes fine. It tastes like water. None different, ANd for yous people whose think that the Bacteria in du water can uffect muy Brains... Duh... I'm is fine. My Brain is functionerling perfectionately . There are nothings rong with the water. I is cleans and smells more better tha n usual. But hope you are in the proer to thinka little about the are to my and it is really just too good. Outstanding in fact, but I'm not really sure about the other. It was very exciting! I reallyes hope you agree. Just great! Fantastical !
Anyways,., Ubout dis foto. U'mm I don't remember whut it is???
NS P36 rolls over the bridge in downtown Rock Hill, SC. For a few months NS Put one of the DC to AC conversion paints on the local. With the current lack of EMDs its the best I could take.
A celebratory quote from a well known TV programme of the past.
Today I attended The Open for the first time. It was quite the experience under generally blue skies watching players from all over the world do battle on this links course. There consistent level of skill, the huge enthusiastic crowds, condition of the course and number of international visitors emphasised the special place The Open has in the heart of golfers worldwide.
Somewhat a distant figure in this view is the local golfer Tommy Fleetwood who ended the day as joint leader at five under par. Maybe he will come good and win his first major on a links course just 18 miles from where he learnt to play golf.
Rock on Tommy.
