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 :-)
What a facinating place this is, The Devils Marbles, near Tennant Creek in Northern Territory. Natural erosion over millions of years in this unique part of the world, caused the marble like granite boulders.
These two propably the 2 most popular photographed boulders, standing about 4 metres high. Shot taken 5 minutes after the sunset, looking North.
One thing I quite enjoyed while in the Northern Territory, is the sunset colours on the red rocks and red sands. The reds were so intense! During the full daylight, the red was slightly washed out, definately worth waiting around at these places and waiting for the sunset or sunrise :)

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.

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.
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.
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.... ;-)

“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

From Plateau Point, a spur off the Bright Angel Trail in Grand Canyon, you can see the switchbacks of the Devil's Corkscrew winding down below the Great Unconformity on the way to the Colorado River. At the bottom, you can cross over the river on one of two suspension bridges, and camp at Phantom Ranch. View is roughly southward.
Tour the whole Grand Canyon in my Rafting the Colorado album.
Devil's Pool is a small (about 10x10ft) area of relatively calm water just at the edge of the Victoria Falls. I didn't know anything about it before going to Zambia. And when I knew about it, I had to have the experience.
It was one of the most awe inspiring experience ever! Imagine, only few ft away is 110 meter drop. Imagine all the roars and thunders of the falls. Imagine swimming there. Imagine the pull towards the edge.
(I had to sign a paper stating that I was totally aware of the danger to life and they were not responsible for anything)
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.
