Pulangbato Falls literally means Red Rock Falls in English. The sulfur content in the water has turned much of the rocks in the stream and directly beneath the waterfall into a reddish-orange color.
While driving along the Kings Canyon we realized it was only a couple hours to sunset. Importantly we had not decided any place where we wanted to get the sunset. For a change it was drizzling all afternoon and I was thinking of getting some nice post-rain clouds for the sunset. We finally decided to drive back to Sequoia and get the sunset at the Moro Rock. It was about an hour away from the Kings Canyon National Park.
As we arrived at the spot after climbing like 500 stairs, we were greeted with this awesome view. This is the west side where all the magic was happening.
The stairs go right to the top, an exasperating climb but completely worth the effort. At times a bit unsafe as the railings are absent, but no biggy! Excellent place to watch stars if you stay late on the top. This was taken from about half climb where there is a small balcony put out to watch the wavy valley.
The windy roads down the valley looked tempting. I instantly wanted to get the light trails of the cars driving back from the NP. I stayed up late and tried many exposures before I was sure about the settings. About 20min after the sunset I started to see the trials in 3-4min exposures but still the top of the photograph was too exposed. Had to wait a bit more for the light on the top to get less intense. The worry was the valley can get too dark! This was my third and final shot with a 6min exposure after the sun was completely down. Eventually, I realized its only a 15min window when the light is right to expose the shot right and get the trails distinct enough to stand out of the scene. The lights in the back is Visalia and Tulare.
Will post a few more shots from a day before.

Rock Ptarmigan was a highlight species on our two journeys up and down the Inuvik to Tuktoyaktuk Highway in Canada’s Northwest Territories. This male was just starting to molt into its breeding plumage, so had mostly the white winter plumage and was keeping close to the few snowbanks still found close to the road. The feathered feet, an adaptation to cold temperatures, are visible in this image.
Just got home from Beaumaris in Anglesey Wales so late with my photo this week. We visited Penmon Lighthouse on a very sunny but cold afternoon, in the lead up to the lighthouse there were very many interesting rock pools so I thought this would be a good idea for a water element. I have cropped the photo down to fit in with the 3" limit.
So it's back to the beach here in Sydney.
This is another image from my sunset trek to Shelly Beach.
Near Manly Beach. On the Northern Beaches of Sydney.
The view here looks across Cabbage Tree Bay to Manly Beach.
You park your car in the carpark up above Shelly Beach - at the end of Bower Street. Watch out for parking rangers, lol.
Then walk throught the sub-tropical rainforest along the Shelly Beach Walking Track, to emerge onto the rocky northern end of the headland.
And to accompany the 'rock star' theme here is, arguably, one of the greatest rock stars, Elton John, with 'Crocodile Rock':

She's his inspiration.
He's her balance,
She's his support.
He's her wild,
She's his calm.
He's her anchor,
She's his wings!'
Have a beautiful weekend folks ;0)
The top of this rock looks like it's going slide off into the water. Somewhere between Monterey and Carmel, California.

Kirkjufell from up above Grundarfjörður. I found a rock with a distictive Kirkjufell like shape, the light was doing its thing again shining down highlighting the land with the foreboding clouds and a fierce wind blowing around me a smile, click! www.glensumnerphotography.com
