An unnamed balanced rock found along the Shafer Trail in southern Utah. (See size comparison and another view below.) View LARGER and on Black
Balanced Rock is a popular landmark at Arches National Park in Moab, UT. The large boulder perched atop a relatively slender pillar of rock is the size of three school buses. The boulder and pillar are made of two different types of stone, so they are wearing away at different rates. Balanced Rock is 128 feet (39 m) high and the boulder weighs approximately 3,577 tons. It will fall down eventually. A nearby smaller balanced rock, called Chip Off the Old Block, fell off its pedestal decades ago.

The dramatic ruins of a fifteenth century chapel surmount the volcanic upthrust of grainte known as Roche Rock. Many myths and legends cling to this atmospheric site.
Situated around six miles from St. Austell and eight miles from Bodmin, the chapel is dedicated to St. Michael. Roche Rock (pronounced Roach) has long been a significant local religious centre.
A particularly ancient legend relates that St. Conan, one of the first Bishops of Cornwall, took refuge at the site. A further legend attached to the rock states that when the chapel fell into disuse it was occupied by a hermit who was a leper. The legend relates that his daughter Gunnett or Gundred climbed the rock each day to tend to him and brought water for drinking and washing from a neaby well, reputedly Roche's Holy Well.
The rock also features in the legends of Tristan and Isolde. Tristan was the nephew of King Mark of Cornwall, who accidentally shared a love potion with his uncle's intended bride Isolde, resulting in Tristan and Isolde falling hopelessly in love. Thereafter, their lives involved a series of furtive trysts, while they sought to escape the traps laid for them by King Mark. It is thought that Roche Rock may have been the site of the hermit Ogrin's chapel, where the lovers found refuge while trying to escape from Mark.
There is also a story which associates the unscrupulous Jan Tregeagle with the rock, Tregeagle, a notorious magistrate, lived in the seventeenth century and acquired a great deal of wealth through devious means and is said to have stole the estate of an orphan and sold his soul to the Devil. As punishment for his transgressions he was set the task of emptying Dozmary Poll with a limpet shell, Tregeagle, so the story goes, managed to escape from his demon guards and fled, pursued by them, to Roche Rock, where he managed to get his head through the east window, to acquire sanctuary of the church. His body remained stuck outside and was exposed to the full fury of the storm and the demons. After a few days the local priest could bear no more of his dreadful screams and the howling of the demons, so with the aid of two local saints removed Tregeagle to the beach at Padstow

Bishop Rock Lighthouse, Isles of Scilly
Unfortunately this was the closest I could get as the weather was too bad to get a boat out to the lighthouse. I took this from the island of St. Agnes, through a haze of sea-spray. Beyond the lighthouse it's next stop America, this is the real Lands End.
Established in 1858 and automated in 1992, it is 49 metres in height.

Paul Simonon, punk rock band, The Clash, iconic image from 1979. No I don't remember this but I do remember the artist from last year. She did the black and white of Janis Joplin which was my favorite. She's the only one who works in black and white.

My husband and I came across this on a drive. We arrived too late to view the pictographs though! Painted Rock is a smooth horseshoe-shaped marine sandstone rock formation with pictograph rock art about 250 feet across and 45 feet tall near Soda Lake within the Carrizo Plain National Monument

Trying to capture the vibe here. Unfortunately, I didn't take a shot from afar to show the overall shape of this great rock formation. Some general info >> en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanging_Rock,_Victoria
It's a popular area for tourists and locals and an interesting venue for concerts, and hosts two race meetings a year. Then there's the film 'Picnic at Hanging Rock' of course. Leonard Cohen and Bruce Springsteen both performed here.
