This piece was done for the First National Contemporary Mosaic Art Exhibition. It couldn't go into the competition part because I was organizing the event but it was done anyway for the occasion as a 'spec' piece. The theme was 'What makes a Kiwi Tick?" The event went very well.
Smalti, marble, floor tile, was used to create a tunnel in the mine with appropriate levels for foreground people in varying depths and darkness further in the background.

Carried here by the glacial ice during the latest ice age. Not as big as the more famous rock Vargklyftan, at Kalvsvik, but very similar.
One of my first views of the granite dome from inside Enchanted Rock State Park grounds.
Enchanted Rock State Natural Area was my second stop (I had briefly stopped at Balcones National Canyonlands earlier in the day) of a 5-day trip to the central Texas Hill Country in October, 2012. It is a 1,643 acre park with a distinctive 500-foot-high dome of pink granite, the second largest such formation in North America.
Designated a National Natural Landmark, Enchanted Rock is an impressive geological feature with an estimated age of one billion years, making it among the oldest exposed rock in North America.
Enchanted Rock is located 18 miles north of Fredericksburg on Ranch Road 965, about halfway between Llano and Fredericksburg in the Hill Country.
I didn't know before-hand that I was going there. I was driving south from Llano towards Fredericksburg on the hilly farm road and noticed a sign advising of the park. I turned west on on Ranch Rd. 965 for the 9-mile drive from that point to the park without knowing anything about it whatsoever.
About a mile before the entrance to the park I kept seeing views of the top of the pink granite dome. At that time I had no idea what it was and at first thought it was an area that had possibly been stripped of trees. I arrived at the park entrance just before the office closed about 4:30 pm. The evening shadows were already beginning to form so I did not have a lot of daylight left.
Once the classic Rock Island station where many Famous Rock Island trains and the SP-RI Golden State once stopped is a classic dinning place for special events. I rode a few Rocket trains here in the 70's with a working agent at the station.I just wish i taken a photo inside back in the 70's
Found this little guy hiding in a crevice at low tide. I assume he is a rock crab, but I don't know.
A freindly raven came and pose (probably looking for food rather than fame).
A cuervo vino muy cerquita, probablemente buscando cominda, no fama.
An image from last summer's calendar shoot. The day was almost over and the model decided to climb up the rock wall and I shot from a ledge on the other side. Every image turned out great, but this is definitely my favorite!
Looking east from behind Beloit Memorial High School, across the river at ABC Supply HQ, lagoon fountains, and the pavillion. I took the earlier boat photos sitting on the bank in front of the fountains, just about in the center in this panorama.
Obviously, this will look MUCH better at larger sizes.

Here's what this intersection looked like in 1925.
Just a nice volcanic rock.
Shooting info: I took a strobe, covered the head with electrical tape to prevent light leakage, and then poked a small hole in it, over which I placed the obsidian.

The trail head to Spouting Rock is at the top of the Hanging Lake trail, just before entering the view of the lake.
