I was looking for something completely different when I found this sitting on my hard drive. An old 'un from 2007.
Devil
This model is such a classic, I had to get around to folding it eventually. Very easy to fold, I must try something harder. Kami wasn't the best choice, but I didn't feel like using something better.
Folded out of an uncut square of 10" kami.
Livingstone Island, Zambia
Devil's Pool is adjacent to the famous Livingstone Island situated on the edge of the Victoria Falls.
During the drier months of the year, May to October, it is possible to walk along the lip of the falls. This can only be done from the Zambian side. After thousands of years of erosion, many rock pools have formed and one of them has formed right on the very edge of the sheer drop.
Over 500 million litres of water a minute cascade over the almost 2km wide falls, causing a deafening and spectacular explosion of spray which can be seen 30 miles away. This is why it is known locally as Mosi-oa-Tunya, or The Smoke that Thunders.
You can find guides who will take you on the Zambian side, at the entrance to the Falls.
The original plan was to hike near Lake Berryessa, CA for some elevated shots of the dam and other great views with another photographer. At the last minute the forecast called for rain causing our plans to deviate to the hills near Colfax to go waterfall hunting. This is probably the third time at this fall and it still amazes me. We hiked nearby to view other grand spots with water flowing. A great area to catch some green landscapes with flowing water for a continued effort in the perfect exposure. (0.3 sec, f/7.1, 14 mm)

According to Wikipedia, devil's club or devil's walking stick (Oplopanax horridus) is a large understory shrub endemic to the arboreal rainforests of the Pacific Northwest, but also disjunct on islands in Lake Superior. It is noted for its large palmate leaves and erect, woody stems covered in noxious and irritating spines [visible here]…The plant has also been used ceremonially by the Tlingit and Haida people of Southeast Alaska. A piece of Devil's club hung over a doorway is said to ward off evil.
Devils Tower (Lakota: Matȟó Thípila ("Bear Lodge") or Ptehé Ǧí ("Brown Buffalo Horn") (Arapaho: Wox Niiinon) is an igneous intrusion or laccolith in the Black Hills near Hulett and Sundance in Crook County, northeastern Wyoming, above the Belle Fourche River. It rises dramatically 1,267 feet (386 m) above the surrounding terrain and the summit is 5,114 feet (1,559 m) above sea level.
Devils Tower was the first declared United States National Monument, established on September 24, 1906, by President Theodore Roosevelt. The Monument's boundary encloses an area of 1,347 acres.
In recent years, about 1% of the Monument's 400,000 annual visitors climb Devils Tower, mostly using traditional climbing techniques.

In the early 1950s my father at left in photo, wearing tee shirt and apron, was an apprentice printer (a printer's devil)..he became a journeyman and then master printer. He worked as a printer for the New York Post from 1956 until he retired in 1986
Printer's Devil
It is a belief among printers that a special devil haunted every print shop, performing mischief such as inverting type, misspelling words or removing entire lines of completed type. The apprentice became a substitute source of blame and came to be called a printer's devil by association.

J'ai été promené le bébé d'une amie hier. Je devais constamment lui dire de se cacher, car il faisait peur aux gens qu'on rencontraient. Les gens ne sont pas habitué de voir un bébé démon, avec des cornes et une très longue langues. N'empêche que c'était drôle de voir la réaction des gens choqués.
I helped a friend of mine yesterday. She has a baby and she needed some time for herself. So i went for a walk, with her baby. I was always saying to the baby, hide yourself, because people that we met on the sidewalk, were shocked to see the baby. They don't see often a devil baby with corns and a long tongue. I was saying to him, to hide but i must admit it was funny to see the reaction of the people we met, aha.

Basically massive red, round boulders all stacked precariously on top of one another - God knows how some of them stay balanced!
If Superman asked an architect to design him a home here in the U.S., it might look something like Devils Postpile. Devils Postpile is a rare sight in the geologic world and ranks as one of the world's finest examples of columnar basalt. The Postpile was formed less than 100,000 years ago when a cooling lava flow cracked into multi-sided columns.

Nice vintage postcard of the strange mountain that's featured in one of my favorite films, Steven Spielberg's classic CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND (1977), which has just been released on Blu-Ray and DVD.

Starter dishes at the Fish! restaurant in Borough Market, London: Devilled whitebait to the left and Calamari, with rocket and lemon mayonnaise, to the right.
Devilled whitebait is crisp, freshly fried whitebait - typically herring - which is perfect as a starter. You eat the whitebait whole, with head and all, only squeezing some lemon on it. Yes, it was delicious.
