rock fence
rare & unique photo from my mobile phone
(no photo effect or edit)
my cell sometimes produces very special, unique and rare photographs ... it does it on its own ... maybe by some dysfunction of it. Decolorizes the reception in a unique way almost black and white and gives some different colors to the ones it removes. The final picture is unique and rare. With no editing and no effects you can see these photos ... there is a limited photo watermark on my photos and my name because I'm interested in exhibiting the templates.

In an attempt to bring my camera on more local hikes, I'm going to try to be less critical of the subject matter sometimes. Here's a picture of a rock. Being surrounded by boreal forest, this was pretty much the most eye-catching thing I passed.
Tsavo National Park, Kenya. Mudanda Rock is a stretch of pre-historic rock formation that is estimated to be 570 million to 4.45 billion years old. It is about 1.5 km long and looks monolithic. Steps have been carved into the sides of this rock for tourists to climb up to the top, which is about 200 feet high.
Amboseli, Kenya.

The petroglyphs are unusual, too bright and in too many colors. The reason: Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color came to film an episode (Chico, the Misunderstood Coyote, 1961) and thought they weren't bright enough (the rock art, not the people, though that could be successfully debated given what they did) and painted over them to make them crisper.
Hooray for Hollywood!
But still... rock art and an arch? We don't see that every day.

...the mine shafts at Winsford
Getting to the mine workings is a lot easier now than it was in the 19th century. Shafts 1 and 2 were used for almost 130 years until they were sealed in the 1970s. Originally miners were lowered into these shafts by bucket!
Over the years shafts 1 and 2 were replaced by three more shafts.
No 3 Shaft - 3.05m in diameter and 150m deep, was installed in 1941 and was used as a production shaft until the 1970s. Today it has a self-service lift and is used for personnel access.
No 4 Shaft - 4.88m in diameter and 189m deep, is the down cast shaft. This means it is used to draw air into the mine. It is about a mile from No. 3 shaft and was installed in 1963 with a two-tier lift consisting of a cargo compartment and a personnel carrier. The cargo compartment is 7 metres high, 2.4 metres wide and 4 metres deep and brings all the materials and engineering equipment underground. It can carry 15 tonnes. The bigger mechanical items are dismantled to fit into the lift and, once reassembled underground, never leave the mine.
No 5 Shaft - 4.88m in diameter and 164.5m deep, was the last shaft to be installed in 1973. It is used to bring the finished rock salt to the surface, which it does in a series of 9 tonne skips. It takes just over a minute to get one skip of rock salt from the mine to the surface.
Sunrise along the former Rock Island near Putnam finds an old codeline support still hanging on. Morning fog and cold temperatures combined to create a fleeting scene to capture.
At Los Vaqueros Reservoir, I noticed this Rock Wren perched on top of a wooden fence post, near the parking lot by the marina. Northern California.

This "Rock Creek" is a tributary of the Clark Fork of the Columbia. The headwaters are near Philipsburg, Montana, and the confluence with the Clark Fork is at Rock Creek, Montana, about 20 miles east of Missoula, Montana.
Rock Creek is a much loved Blue Ribbon fly-fishing hot spot populated with rainbow, cutthroat, brown, bull trout, and white fish.

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)

"‘Therefore, everyone who listens to these words of mine and acts on them will be like a sensible man who built his house on rock. Rain came down, floods rose, gales blew and hurled themselves against that house, and it did not fall: it was founded on rock. But everyone who listens to these words of mine and does not act on them will be like a stupid man who built his house on sand. Rain came down, floods rose, gales blew and struck that house, and it fell; and what a fall it had!’"
– Matthew 7:24-28, which is part of today's Gospel at Mass.
My sermon for today can be read here.
In this photo, a Dominican friar is standing on a rocky outcrop on Lindisfarne as a storm whips up around him.
My rock raiders themed Ubermann.
Equipment: right arm: Big a** Pickaxe. left arm: Dual Buzz Saws. backpack: Bricklazer. Rocket Propelled Chainsaw (you had to be there).
In the distant future, sports like Caveracing, Cyborg Racing, and Mech Racing were not the only extreme sports to rise from futuristic boredom. Here and there across the Earth, people compete in tournaments and single combat in hardsuits deemed: "Ubermann" after the German company that first produced consumer hardsuits. According to the general rule of thumb, they can only have four equipment mounts: one on each arm, and two on the backpack. They also require a large black wrench mounted on them in order to function (as an homage to the caveracers). All Ubermann Hardsuits must be built off of a uniform frame ( flickr.com/photos/30114783@N06/2837089095/ ). Apart from that, they can have any armor, weapons, arms or legs, anything. If you build an Ubermann Hardsuit, please copy these regulations into the description. Thanks!

Parts from Mixel sets 41545 and 41546. I see myself experimenting even more with that dome-face design in the future.
These rock houses are carved into the sandstone ridge of Kinver Edge, near Stourbridge, Staffordshire.
Families lived in these houses up to the 1960s, some of them have now been restored by the National Trust.

The rock feature in the middle ground is not Bell Rock, but this image was made shooting from the parking area for Bell Rock, near Sedona, Arizona, shortly after a thunderstorm passed over.
The Rock of Dunamaise - Co. Laois - Ireland
This is my first attempt at using artificial ilumination (a high power flash light) to light the landscape, although not in the usual harsh way the ruins were lit by a flashlight. This image is the result of 7 30s exposures merged together in potatoshop, they were then desaturated and minor colour corrections applied to some areas. The final canvas effect was applied and sharpening was done using 3 step sharpening.
I quite liked the end result and in the end I was quite happy with this first try, I really need to try this again but next time I need to bring someone with me as it is really tough to control exposure and light in a ruin this size alone.
Hope you enjoy it, have a great week!
