Rock Purslane blossom. Native to Chile, rock purslane (Calandrinia spectabilis) produces masses of bright purple and pink, poppy-like blooms that attract bees and butterflies from spring until fall. Toxic to dogs.

Skaros Rock is a large rock promontory on Santorini created through volcanic activity.
After walking all the way down to the start of the steps on the rock, I decided to call it a day! There were a lot of steps just getting there that then had to be climbed back up again!!

Peyto Lake, Banff National Park.
It was an overcast and rainy morning so we were able to bypass the main parking lot and head to an upper lot to reduce the amount of time of the hike to get to this spot off a small dirt trail. This rock outcropping is another 15-20min or so from the main viewpoint and the views are stunning from here. I met an Australian photographer at this spot and we swapped portraits of each other from a top of one of the rock ledges. This one is without either of us in it. I like how it shows the run off from the mountain snow through the rock and mud and into the lake. This glacial migration is considered rock flour. This was our second stop on the Icefields Parkway.

I guess you can't tour Western Australia without going to Wave Rock. A lot of people had told us to be prepared to be underwhelmed. I think they were wrong, it was definitely worth the long drive to see it.
A rock pool at Haycock Point. Quite a few steep steps down to this large rock platform and then a sloping rock face, which is okay if not wet and if you have plenty of grip on your shoes. The platform contains some varied geology and is quite an interesting place. Haystack Rock is located beyond it and separated from the platform. Beowa National Park on the Far South Coast of NSW. (Formerly Ben Boyd NP).
☄ Michel Pagliaro at the 2019 Quebec National Day (St-Jean-Baptiste). Pag, as he is called here is the most famous rock musician of Quebec, a real legend. He’s been on the scene for many, many years and believe me, he stills rock the crowd hard ... with the help of excellent musicians of course. So I allowed myself a small photo montage by mixing a portrait of the artist with the Fireworks.
☄ Michel Pagliaro à la Fête Nationale du Québec (St-Jean-Baptiste) 2019. Pag, comme on l'appelle ici, est le plus célèbre musicien rock du Québec, une véritable légende. Il est sur la scène depuis de très nombreuses années et croyez-moi, il continue de faire puissamment vibrer la foule ... avec l’aide d’excellents musiciens bien sûr. Je me suis donc permis un petit montage photo en mixant un portrait de l'artiste avec les Feux de la St-Jean.
☄ Michel Pagliaro en el Día Nacional de Quebec (St-Jean-Baptiste) 2019. Pag, como se le llama aquí, es el músico de rock más famoso de Quebec, una verdadera leyenda. Él ha estado en la escena por muchos, muchos años y créeme, él continúa emocionando poderosamente a la multitud ... con la ayuda de grandes músicos, por supuesto. Así que me permití un pequeño fotomontaje al mezclar un retrato del artista con los fuegos.

Thank you all for your lovely comments.
Something different and not a tree in sight! Taken on a dismal day at Fistral Beach, Cornwall. I was quite taken by the rock forming a formidable boundary to the sea.
This is one of the many little rocks that I bought from a store in Copenhagen. I couldn't resist the colours with my mania for colours. Have a blue and Happy MM!
Isolated from other walls and buttes working to become isolated pillars, Standing Rock is a well known feature of Monument Basin in Canyonlands, often seen and photographed from Grandview Point on Island in the Sky 2000’ / 600 m above. The north-facing slopes still hold snow from a significant storm 3 days prior to when this photo was taken.
Standing Rock was first climbed in 1962 by Layton Kor and colleagues, because as they put it “it won’t always be there.” They described the Organ Rock shale that the pillar is made of as "layers of rye-krisp sandwiched between layers of kitty litter." As you might guess few people have been on the summit of this 300’ / 90 m tower.
I had visited this area a year ago, managing to get a flat tire and lacking the appropriate lug nuts for the spare… that saga is best forgotten ;-). This year’s trip was successful in that I managed to drive the entire White Rim road, though the conditions were tricky at times with snow, ice, and slippery mud on steep slopes. The weather was also dicey at times with high winds, occasional snow, and cold temperatures. But hey, dramatic weather sometimes yields beautiful scenes.
