Un'altra immagine dal mio archivio dell'Arch Rock, Joshua National Park, California.
Questo spettacolare ponte di granito sembra unire il cielo e la terra da dimensioni parallele...
Buona giornata

Some beautiful light last August on Crow Stones Edge.
Roche Rock near Bodmin in Cornwall is an amazing place. I have seen photos of it so was delighted when the OH said do you want to stop and take photos while we were travelling to Cornwall. The chapel was built on top of the 20 m granite rock formation in the 15th century. It has certainly stood the test of time. There is a metal ladder leading up to the chapel but it has been closed off. I certainly didn't fancy trying to navigate it! I have given the shot a very gothic edit to bring out the mystery of the place! HMT!
Location:Lagoon Prokopou/West Peloponnese/Greece.

En la fotografía se puede ver el volcán Inacaliri (5.545 msnm).
El cerro Inacaliri, también conocido como cerro Cajón o del Cajón, se ubica en la frontera entre Bolivia y Chile, al sureste de los más conocidos San Pedro y San Pablo. Al lado chileno se encuentra el retén de carabineros del mismo nombre, desde donde es fácil ascender esta cumbre. Para llegar a él hay que dirigirse a Ollagüe, desde Calama, y luego internarse hacia los mencionados San Pedro y San Pablo; hacia el sureste se encuentra el Inacaliri, en el borde fronterizo.
El Inacaliri posee cuatro puntas rocosas que forman una corona alrededor de su cumbre, rodeando una extensa laguna que se ubica en medio.

People like you and I, though mortal of course like everyone else, do not grow old no matter how long we live...[We] never cease to stand like curious children before the great mystery into which we were born.

Brimham Rocks, once known as Brimham Crags, is a 183.9-hectare (454-acre) biological Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and Geological Conservation Review (GCR) site, 8 miles (13 km) north-west of Harrogate, North Yorkshire, England, on Brimham Moor in the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The site, notified as SSSI in 1958, is an outcrop of Millstone Grit, with small areas of birch woodland and a large area of wet and dry heath.
The site is known for its water- and weather-eroded rocks, which were formed over 325 million years ago and have assumed fantastic shapes. In the 18th and 19th centuries, antiquarians such as Hayman Rooke wondered whether they could have been at least partly carved by druids, an idea that ran concurrently with the popularity of James Macpherson's Fragments of Ancient Poetry of 1760, and a developing interest in New-Druidism. For up to two hundred years, some stones have carried fanciful names, such as Druid's Idol, Druid's Altar and Druid's Writing Desk. (Wikipedia) Nidderdale, Yorkshire Dales, United Kingdom.

Due to the high backlight I had to use strong processing.
The Fairy Rock rises tower-like from the slope of the Fairy Mountain descending to the east-northeast: less from the direction of the Fairy Mountain, but very steep from the direction of the valley. Its material is a dolomite stone formed in the late Triassic age, which dusts in places.

It was like a warm glow had taken over the whole beach.

One of the most famous rock formations in Karkonosze. Seen on the trail from Śnieżka to Karpacz :)
Southern Stone (in Poland "Słonacznik") is located in the Western Sudetes, the band Giant, in the Giant Mountains National Park, west of the Cauldron of the Great Pond, on the northern slope Smogorni. It is a form of rock, consisting of several highly fractured granite island mountains, north of the pillar, viewed from the east side carved in the rock resembles a human figure. Rock is not impressive, situated at an altitude of 1423 m above sea level rises to a height of 12 m towers over the Upper Karpacz and the surrounding area, is the most characteristic and best-exposed rocks of the Giant Mountains, which can be seen from almost all the Jelenia Góra Basin. Fancy shapes rocks is the result of a complex and long process of erosion, during which they were deleted items less resistant to weathering and remain resilient. Southern Stone is one of the most interesting and most visited Giant rocks. Southern Stone takes its name from the fact that for the residents Podgórzyn, Przesieka and Borowice sun on a rock pointed south.

Jedna z bardziej znanych skałek w Karkonoszach, na szlaku ze Śnieżki do Karpacza :)
Słonecznik znajduje się w Sudetach Zachodnich, w paśmie Karkonoszy, na terenie Karkonoskiego Parku Narodowego, na zachód od Kotła Wielkiego Stawu, na północnym zboczu Smogorni. Jest to forma skalna, składająca się z kilku silnie spękanych granitowych ostańców, z których północny filar, oglądany od wschodniej strony przypomina wykutą w skale postać ludzką. Skała nie ma imponujących rozmiarów, położona na wysokości 1423 m n.p.m. wznosi się na wysokość 12 m. Góruje nad Karpaczem Górnym i okolicami, jest najbardziej charakterystyczną i najlepiej widoczną skałą w Karkonoszach, którą widać prawie z całej Kotliny Jeleniogórskiej. Fantazyjne kształty skały to efekt złożonego i długotrwałego procesu erozyjnego, podczas którego zostały usunięte elementy mniej odporne na działanie warunków atmosferycznych, a pozostały odporniejsze. Słonecznik zalicza się do najciekawszych i najchętniej odwiedzanych skałek karkonoskich. Słonecznik wziął swoją nazwę stąd, że dla mieszkańców Podgórzyna, Przesieki i Borowic słońce nad skałą wskazywało południe – nazwa niemiecka Mittagstein, czyli Kamień południa.
On the sunny shores of Cefalù, an old grumpy rock named Grumblestone resides, and he is notorious for his cantankerous nature. Tourists would flock to hear his salty complaints about the noisy seagulls, the splashing waves, and even the daring beachgoers.
So, if you ever find yourself in Cefalù, don't forget to pay a visit to the grumpiest rock on the seashore. Just be prepared for a scathing remark or two – after all, Grumblestone's grumpiness is as much a part of Cefalù's charm as its breathtaking views and delicious cannoli!

I took another trip to Perch Rock Lighthouse, New Brighton after work. It had been wet and cloudy all day but there was enough break in the cloud to give some colour.
We spent a glorious day alone on Housel Beach, so as it was too sunny , I played with delicate balances. I could only just lift up this rock, and I think that's why it stood up to so many breaking waves. I waited till it looked like there was no rock beneath it. The title is a favourite Frank Zappa track.
The Split Rock Lighthouse peeks out of the fall foliage along the shore of Lake Superior.
The lighthouse was built after a 1905 storm that damaged 29 boats. It was first lit in 1910.
The brass framed light is made up of 252 prisms and has a range of 22 miles.
Lake Superior is the worlds largest freshwater lake holding 3,000,000,000,000,000 gallons of water! That's 3 quadrillion!!! That's enough to flood North and South America with one foot of water!!!
