The Flint Hills are an area of rolling plains in the eastern part of Kansas. They are only hilly compared to the rest of the state, but it's a beautiful area. This is Teter Rock, which sits on Teter Hill, one of the highest points in the area. The rock was erected as a landmark for pioneer families on their way west. It's visible for miles around.
The Rock of Cashel (Irish: Carraig Phádraig), also known as Cashel of the Kings and St. Patrick's Rock, is a historic site in Ireland's province of Munster, located at Cashel, South Tipperary.
The Rock of Cashel was the traditional seat of the kings of Munster for several hundred years prior to the Norman invasion. Few remnants of the early structures survive; the majority of buildings on the current site date from the 12th and 13th centuries. Cashel is reputed to be the site of the conversion of the King of Munster by St. Patrick in the 5th century. The picturesque complex has a character of its own and is one of the most remarkable collections of Celtic art and medieval architecture to be found anywhere in Europe
This is the view from the Fallen Rock overlook which is the fourth scenic overlook along Rim Rock Drive at Colorado National Monument. I'm confident that you can easily spot the "Fallen Rock which is a striking example of how giant slabs of sandstone break loose from the cliff wall and slide down to rest on the debris slope below-all without falling over. Look closely and you can see the Kayenta Formation caprock on top of Fallen Rock. That tells us that it used to be connected to the mesa top and has slid down more than 100 feet (30 meters). It is likely that Fallen Rock slid thousands of years ago." This is more useful information I found in the Rim Rock Drive Geology pamphlet. I love this view as it shows the large size of the Grand Mesa in the far distance. The Grand Mesa is the largest flat-topped mountain in the entire world.
Located high on the Colorado Plateau near Grand Junction, the Colorado National Monument was established in 1911 and is managed by the National Park Service.
It's the start of a Rock and Drill concert! You know it'll be great because the background has what looks like a hurricane icon. Look to the right of the guitar to find it.
My son plays lead guitar in the school rock band.He is the one doing the scissor kick to pump up his band mates and the audience. I have to admit, I was on an emotional high seeing him rocking out. After the show, it continued as people went out of their way to congratulate him on his performance. Then he went off to the USA directly from the show to see Bruce Springsteen with one his teachers.

Just returned from a wonderful trip to South Africa where I had the absolute pleasure of guiding the photographical game-drives for a group of very special people at Marataba Game Reserve in South Africa.
Those of you that know me a bit longer here on Flickr, know that I simply can't resist a Lilac Breasted Roller. Especially not when it flies against the backdrop of the beautiful Waterberg Mountains..
So there's rock, and a Roller..

An island off the East coast of Scotland and home to the largest Northern gannet colony in the world. 150,000 gannets live on the volcanic plug of rock.
There are not always birds around so I look for other things that grab my attention. This inscription on a large boulder looked like a conversation from days past...This image was photographed in Colombia guided by Neotropic Photo Tours (I found this on my own!!!).
Another one from the landscape workshop in Turkey.
Many years ago the Christians in Cappadocia had to hide from persecution and they carved their houses and chuches in the soft sand stone. Often these places were well hidden inside mountains and difficult to enter.
Many of these houses and churches still exist now and make for good photography subjects.
We're used to seeing buildings built with rocks and bricks, but to see churches hewn out from a mountain is pretty spectacular.
If you're interested in joining me on our next landscape workshop in Turkey, please have a look on my website for more information:

As you approach Sugarloaf Rock you will instantly see why this towering, sea-scultpured rock that emerges from the Indian Ocean is one of the most photographed coastal landforms in the region. Sugarloaf WA
Moro Rock is a prominent granite protrusion on the edge of the Giant Forest visible to everyone driving up the Generals Highway into Sequoia National Park from the south. The hike up Moro Rock is a classic, composed of over 350 steps in a picturesque quarter mile climb. Its status as one of the most popular hikes in Sequoia National Park is well earned. Moro Rock rises 6,725 feet above sea level, but hikers only have to climb the last 300 feet of that elevation to enjoy the vast panoramic views.
This is an east looking view if I remember correctly.
