This one is from 4th July road trip to South Dakota. It was a cloudy day, but it cleared just before the sunset. Was altogether a different experience watching this huge rock formation in golden colors on gray background. Something I'd never experienced. A must visit palce.

I hit the road today for a daylong photo shoot with my friend Darrell Robinson. Darrell pointed us in the direction of Devil's Falls a short way from the American River outside of Colfax. Darrell is a brave soul. He navigated us down a narrow eroded dirt road called Yankee Jim's Road with a steep drop on the canyon side of the road, across a 100 year old suspension bridge with a safety rating of 3/100, up a steep eroded grade through a canyon recently ravaged by forest fire and a monsoonal storm to this lovely waterfall. Did I tell you that I was driving. Here's a link to a beautiful photo that Darrell took of the upper portion of the this lovely waterfall for perspective. You'll notice the same rocks on the bottom of his photo that show up in my photo above.

There is a temple in Bangkok that has never given me a positive vibe.
Every time I walk by, it always feels empty and dark.
Just outside the temple grounds, I came across this on the wall.
Let me know what you think—perhaps it’s just my imagination.
Love to hear what you see.

Devil's Kitchen is one of the many natural wonders in the german region called "Dahner Felsenland" which means "Country of Rocks". This region is located in the southernmost part of the vast forrests of the "Pfälzer Wald" in Rhineland-Palatinate in Germany.
In this region, there are several beautiful rock formations, made up of sandstone. Many of the local castles are build on these rocks.
After all, I don't know why this rock is called "Devil's Kitchen". It might be for touristical reasons.... ;-)
The name probably came from the Anglo settlers later since the highest mountain in the San Francisco Bay Area was originally named by the Spaniards as Mount Diablo. Why the devil? Well, turns out that the Spanish conquistadors were trying to capture the Volvon natives and the conquistadors were either bewildered or got lost in this mountain. So they called the mountain the devil and the name stuck until this day. Most indigenous people at the time was captured and relocated to the nearby Missions. There are still remnants of Native village sites that can be found in the nearby Morgan Territory.
My previous uploads featured the view from the top deck of a bus at Devil’s Dyke in Sussex, some 711 feet (216m) above sea level. It seems only right to show the rest of the bus, so here it is: Seaford & District’s immaculate former Dublin Volvo Olympian / Alexander, P772 SWC. Having walked across the Downs from the top of Ditchling Beacon (even higher at 813 feet above sea level), a trip back down to Brighton seafront on an open-top Olympian was most welcome :-)
It's not showy, but is a new species for my prairie wildflowers species set. I only saw one of these plants so I was lucky to get this.

Afternoon light warms the face of Devil's Tower, in the Black Hills of northeastern Wyoming, which rises dramatically 1,267 feet above the surrounding terrain over the Belle Fourche River. It's summit is 5,112 feet above sea level. Devil's Tower was the first National Monument, established by Teddy Roosevelt in 1906. The Lakota Indian names for the tower translate as "Bear Lodge," and "Brown Buffalo Horn." "Devil's Tower" is a mistranslation of the original Indian name. It came to national attention in the 1977 movie, "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," when the aliens landed on it at the end of the movie.

Aralia spinosa, commonly known as devil's walking stick. Nasty and invasive. Every part of this plant has spikes. The stalk here has hard and ripping sharp spikes, as do each leaf and flower. Spreads with underground root system and almost impossible to control. Fascinating plant though. Do wish it wasn't in the yard.
The three shot montage is a continuation of the stalk top to bottom. Diameter approx. 1.75" (45cm)

Devil @ Dublin
Brussels Airlines A320 OO-SNA in special red devils livery, operating special flight SN1061 from Brussels to Dublin with the football team aka Belgian Red Devils to play Ireland at the Aviva Stadium on Saturday 27th, full time score 2-2.
The aircraft overnighted at Dublin, returning the squad after the match, departing back to Brussels as SN1062.
Brussels Airlines are no strangers to amazing liveries.
The location is Devil's Speedway off West Side Road in Death Valley California. Just in back of the salt is Devil's Golf Course.
These were not my props.
The thorny devil also features a spiny "false head" on the back of its neck, and the lizard presents this to potential predators by dipping its real head. The "false head" is made of soft tissue.[1] The females are larger than the males. The thorny dragon's scales are ridged, enabling the animal to collect water from any part of its body. That water is then conveyed to its mouth.[2] So to drink water, they touch water, usually with their limbs, and via the capillary principle, water is transported to the mouth through their skin.
Known for their outrageous flavor combinations and flamboyant decor, Devil Doughnuts is a local chain. They are quite popular with the local police.
I blogged about building this one here:

Datura stramonium, known by the common names thorn apple, jimsonweed or devil's snare, is a plant species in the nightshade family and Datura genus. Its likely origin was in Central America, and it has been introduced in many world regions. It is an aggressive invasive weed in temperate climates across the world.
Finnich Glen near Drymen, sometimes known as the Devil's Pulpit, is a place you know you're going to get wet and dirty going into but you know it's going to be good.
“This life is for loving, sharing, learning, smiling, caring, forgiving, laughing, hugging, helping, dancing, wondering, healing, and even more loving. I choose to live life this way. I want to live my life in such a way that when I get out of bed in the morning, the devil says, 'aw shit, he's up!” ~ Steve Maraboli
