I organized an awesome group hike with some friends and their wives and kids to the Devils Bathtub. This is the pool right before the tub. Was amazing Turquoise color.
Formed by the cold, rushing waters of Coal Creek, Bathtub Rocks has long been an area where folks go to soak and escape the heat of an Oklahoma summer day. Here you will find some of the most pristine waters in Oklahoma before it meanders down to join the scenic Illinois River.
Next weeks are going to be very stressful. On 27 January is my interim examination and I have to learn a lot of stuff until then and I didn't even started yet. So I'll have to treat myself to relax a bit. It's curious, I only take bathes one or two times a year and mostly for taking pictures, lol. I prefer to take showers but I like the possibility to take a bath whenever I want...

Devil's Bathtub, Hocking Hills State Park, Hocking County, Ohio
Taken on December 4th, 2015
Finally after nearly a year, I was able to get the picture I wanted of this spot in Hocking Hills. Before this, I'd walked by Devil's Bathtub and seen that there was a big log in the pool. I've tried to get a good picture with that log, but it never really worked out the way I wanted it to. But just a couple of weeks ago, I went to the same spot, and saw that it was gone. But I didn't have my camera at that moment. The waterfall was also not strong enough for what I wanted, so I decided to wait for a day when some rain would come along, and make it stronger.
Now just a couple of days ago the rain came. I had everything I needed. I had my tripod, my camera, and my circular polarizer. I got in my car, and headed out to the park, and went to that spot in the gorge. It was just perfect. The water flowed on a curved path down into the pool below, creating a smooth motion for the camera to capture.
In the old pioneer days when people saw this particular feature of the gorge, they thought that the pool stretched all the way to Hades. They also thought it looked like a bathtub given its shape. That's where it got the name Devil's Bathtub. In reality, the pool is only several feet deep, and it carves almost straight down into the rock because the middle layer is more compact than the top or bottom. It's one of the most unique features of the park, and I've never seen anything like it anywhere else.

This is the bathtub of Marie Peyrat (1840-1923) in the castle of Gaasbeek. She was married to the very rich Italian count Giammartino Arconati-Visconti but the couple remained child-less. Giammartino died already after three years in their marriage and Marie inherited his large family fortune, restored the castle and bought a remarkable art collection. Marie Peyrat was an eccentric lady with advanced ideas about the separation of church and state, the importance of scientific research and a liberal state of mind. At old age she gave her castle to Belgium (the castle is now under the care of Flanders). Gaasbeek castle, situated in a beautiful public park, is currently under renovation and is still a centre of culture, artistic projects and exhibitions as an on-going project of Marie Peyrat. This photo was made during an exceptional opening of her largely unmodified private apartments within the castle, with glass work from her art collection.
