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.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devils_Tower
Devils Tower (also known as Bear Lodge Butte) is a butte, possibly laccolithic, composed of igneous rock in the Bear Lodge Ranger District of the Black Hills, near Hulett and Sundance in Crook County, northeastern Wyoming, above the Belle Fourche River. It rises 1,267 feet (386 m) above the Belle Fourche River, standing 867 feet (265 m) from summit to base. The summit is 5,112 feet (1,559 m) above sea level.
Devils Tower was the first United States national monument, established on September 24, 1906, by President Theodore Roosevelt. The monument's boundary encloses an area of 1,347 acres (545 ha).
In recent years, about 1% of the monument's 400,000 annual visitors climbed Devils Tower, mostly using traditional climbing techniques.
As rain and snow continue to erode the sedimentary rocks surrounding the Tower's base, more of Devils Tower will be exposed. Nonetheless, the exposed portions of the Tower still experience certain amounts of erosion. Cracks along the columns are subject to water and ice erosion. Portions, or even entire columns, of rock at Devils Tower are continually breaking off and falling. Piles of broken columns, boulders, small rocks, and stones, called scree, lie at the base of the tower, indicating that it was once wider than it is today.
Fur trappers may have visited Devils Tower, but they left no written evidence of having done so. The first documented Caucasian visitors were several members of Captain William F. Raynolds's 1859 expedition to Yellowstone. Sixteen years later, Colonel Richard I. Dodge escorted an Office of Indian Affairs scientific survey party to the massive rock formation and coined the name Devils Tower. Recognizing its unique characteristics, the United States Congress designated the area a U.S. forest reserve in 1892 and in 1906 Devils Tower became the nation's first National monument.
The 1977 movie Close Encounters of the Third Kind used the formation as a plot element and as the location of its climactic scenes.Its release was the cause of a large increase in visitors and climbers to the monument.
Similarly, the 2011 movie Paul used the formation at the film's climax as an homage to Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
The Native American story of the formation of the stars of the Pleiades at Devils Tower is featured in the 2014 science documentary series Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey.
It is featured in a 2019 episode of The UnXplained titled "Unnatural Nature", documenting and speculating about the formation.
Devil's Tower featured in 2019 film Godzilla: King of The Monsters as Abaddon resting.
Devil's Tower, by the name Mato Tipila, is featured as one of 34 discoverable natural wonders in the 2016 Firaxis video game Civilization VI.

Love is a flame, a devils thing
A violent storm about to be born
Just look in these eyes, see all the lies
All the things you see you cannot deny
And this flame that burns inside
If you get too close burn you alive
Just look in these eyes and see if they lie
All these words I speak you cannot deny
Got a light shines on me
Gentle light it will never be
See the flame in my hand
If youre playing with fire
You're playing in hell
Devils plaything in my hands
If you dont want pain
You dont understand
Got a light shines on me
If you wanna touch flames
Come unto me
Got a flame burns inside
If you dont wanna burn
Just walk on by
And the pain you're feeling now
Is nothing compared
To the pleasures I hide
Devils plaything in my hands
If you dont want pain
You dont understand
Got a light shines on me
If you wanna touch flames
Come unto me
Got a flame in my hand
If you dont want a fire
Step out of my light
Walk on by
Just look away
cause if youre on my path
Youre better off dead
Devils plaything in my hands
If you dont want pain
You dont understand
Got a light shines on me
If you wanna touch flames
Then come unto me

We spent a day a Port Arthur and visited Devil's Kitchen and Tasman's Arch on the way back. Great coastline, very very warm weather.
This amazing exhibition tells the story of arguably the Greatest Munitions Factory on Earth, which was constructed on the Anglo-Scottish Border between scenic Dornock in Scotland and bustling Longtown in England. During 1915, Britain was at a massive disadvantage in the early part of the Great War through lack of a decent and consistent supply of quality ammunition.
That is until 30,000 women and men travelled from all over the world to come and work in this one massive factory, purpose built by the government on the northern shore of the Solway Firth specifically to mass manufacture cordite: a smokeless explosive usually made from nitro-glycerine and nitro-cotton that would go on to turn the battle around! Within 2 years this one uber factory was producing 1,100 tons of cordite a week, which was more than all the other munitions plants in Britain put together!

Devils Tower in Wyoming in the Northwestern edge of the Black hills. It is formed of igneous rock, the solidifed lava tube of an extinct volcano. It is considered holy sacred ground by Native Americans of the area. (primarily the Lakota and sioux tribes)

The Tasmanian Devil is endemic to Tasmania [Australia] and the Devil Facial Tumour Disease (DFTD) has had a devasting impact on their population.
16th December 2007. I volunteered on the Corinna/Savage River 'Devil' monitoring trip.
Alex - female weighed 6.2kg, born 2005. Had 4 active teats. Showed no signs of DFTD.
The Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and Environment continues to monitor the population and research DFTD.

It was such a hot day, maybe our last of summer who knows, but there was like a slight mist that sat on the Downs
Coventry's Cathedral is a unique synthesis of old a new, born of wartime suffering and forged in the spirit of postwar optimism, famous for it's history and for being the most radically modern of Anglican cathedrals. Two cathedral's stand side by side, the ruins of the medieval building, destroyed by incendiary bombs in 1940 and the bold new building designed by Basil Spence and opened in 1962.
The exterior is adorned with Jacob Epstein's triumphant bronze figures of Archangel Michael (patron of the cathedral) vanquishing the Devil.
