Red Rock Canyon is a maze of canyons and peaks, ledges and chimneys, chutes and gullies leading to surprises around every wall.
Aptly named, these wrens love to inhabit rocky areas. This is our palest wren and the back coloration superbly blends in with its rocky surroundings. Seen at Ramona Grasslands. [view @ 100%]
I'm currently working on a model of the Rock Island's Peoria Rocket as it appeared in 1937. The TA is built in pretty much every direction. I'm using panel pieces flipped upside down to cover the motors. This'll need plenty of painted parts, but the end result will look amazing.
Rock ptarmigan meat is a popular part of festive meals in Icelandic cuisine. Hunting of rock ptarmigans was banned in Iceland in 2003 and 2004 due to its declining population. Hunting has been allowed again since 2005, but is restricted to selected days, which are revised yearly and all trade of rock ptarmigan is illegal. (wiki)

Rock Island Railroad 5756 at Blue Island, Illinois on an unknown day in July 1982, Fujichrome by Chuck Zeiler. According to the October 1971 edition of the ORER ( Official Railway Equipment Register ), the Rock Island had 50 cars in the 5750 - 5799 number series, AAR class R206, and ( Note 45 ) "equipped with fork lift truck pallets, platforms or skids, which will be considered as part of the car and are in assigned service." Further, Note 88 states, "Cars in series 5750 to 5799 have 'PS-20' travel cushion underframe, are insulated and equipped with DF-B load divider bulkheads and load side fillers, single 10 ft. plug type sliding door."
I don't really know if the small rock in the surf zone has a name. It's only a few yards long, but the cormorants certainly like congregating there.
It was slightly challenging getting this shot through this rock arch. The tide was coming in and this was the only dry passage between two different parts of the beach. I had to wait some time for people to stop passing through here.
Taken at Wybung Head in the Munmorah Recreation Area, New South Wales, Australia.
The fallen rocks can be seen at the base of the cliffs.
The top of Wybung Head would be at least 250 feet high with some step sides.

This has been even more fun than my original postapoc project from 2011. The structures are more or less complete, although I can't help but think another level of shacks and equipment on top of what is here wouldn't go amiss. The windmill needs to have a proper home, it has just been plonked on so far.
Adding more detail and bits and pieces is next, as well as some more stuff at ground level. A couple more vehicles should follow to round it off.
