This is one of the tens of waterfalls in and around Hamilton. Didnt know until recently that Hamilton Ontario is called the City of Waterfalls
Is this an MRI scan of the brain's blood-vessels? No, just a twin picture of a dead tree. Converted this picture into a PS brush, making it mirror by accident by pushing 'flip horizontal'. Automatically a Rorschach test developed. This time as a structure instead of stains.
In the middle, from top to bottom, if you take a careful look, all kinds of Develish faces appear. And in the black hole above the 'eyes', there is a centerpiece resembling the Holy Virgin. From a distance the whole picture becomes a face. The Devil is not only in the details...
Not for people with a tendency to metaphysics!
Best seen on black.
Somewhat appropriately in this case, in Polish, Ferris wheel is called diabelski młyn - Devil's windmill.
Who is a stalker?
The Soviet science fiction writers Boris and Arkady Strugatsky wrote a novella entitled "Roadside Picnic", and it was first published in 1972. [37] In the book, they used the terms stalker (which they got from Kipiling's "Stalky & Co.", and themselves pronounced stullker). The novella, written more than a decade before the Chernobyl disaster, depicts... a deadly Exclusion Zone, that some people, stalkers, venture to. In the novella, the Zone symbolically exposes the true self and nature of the people that dare go in - some turn out to be selfish cowards, others heroes.
Stood amidst the post-disaster damage, spray-painted walls that witnessed theft and deliberate destruction, my guide and I wondered if the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone wasn't similar in this respect - as no laws apply there, you have to apply your own. Who do you become in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone?

Dubbed a "Mini Bryce Canyon", this Devil's Kitchen is a redrock scar in the rolling green landscape.
(5 shots stitched and it shows up better from space than it does on the ground, view the map in "hybrid" mode)

June 27th, 2013 - 44 Quiet Nights, Day 29 - American Fork Canyon to the Nebo Loop Road.
delaram, afghanistan
This is almost a daily sight during the summer months in what the locals call the "wind of 120 days".
As I was heading out to visit some areas we stopped at Devils Tower to grab a few shots. It had been raining a good amount so we kept moving but it was a cool sight to see.
It seems to have become tradition for Brussels Airlines to decorate an Airbus to celebrate their football team. Including a pair wearing identical liveries about ten years ago, there have now been four aircraft so painted.
This one, OO-SNO, reflects the modern era by also promoting the women's side who are nicknamed the Red Flames, the men's team having the moniker the Red Devils.
The aircraft was launched in this livery on 15th November 2022.

Thanks to those that commented on the picture that was here, but has now been deleted. Something about it wasn't right, and it was bothering me, so it has been relegated. It may get promoted again if I can work out what was wrong.
Here is one I am happy with. It's not brilliant, but it is all that it is ever going to be.
As with all these neolithic folly's, function is unknown. I reckon it probably had something to do with nookie, but I am no expert. They are however right next to the A1, so they might be stone age road signs of some sort.
There are three of these that I could see, but access is difficult so you only get one.
Here is what Julian Cope has to say about them (for he knows about these things):
"Their name, as the Devil's Arrows, seems to have originated from the following story, which we had related to us by an hoary headed individual living in Boroughbridge, when soliciting information as to their history:
"There lived a very pious old man {a Druid should we imagine} who was reckoned an excellent cultivator of the soil. However, during each season at the time his crops had come to maturity they were woefully pillaged by his surrounding neighbours; so that at this, he being provokingly grieved*, the Devil appeared, telling the old man if he would only recant and throw away his holiness he should never more be disturbed in his mind, or have whatever he grew stolen or demolished.
The old man, like Eve in the garden, yielded to temptation, and at once obeyed the impulse of Satan for the benefit of worldly gain. So when the old man's crops were again being pillaged, the Devil threw from the infernal regions some ponderous arrows, which so frightened the plunderers by shaking the earth that never more was he harrassed in that way. Hence the name of the 'Devil's Arrows."

Devil Christmas bauble.
I got it today from Mister Mushroom. I just love it!!!!
Such a jolly bauble! :-)
It was for a second...I saw the shadow on the road and pressed the shutter release button!
Original frame, no crop :)
I added some fill light (ok not some...near %100), some contrast (near %100) and some recover (near %100) :))) but, as it was an uncompressed RAW file of 15 mb...it handled all of my extreme processes successfully...and here is the result :)
Shadow of The Devil ;)

Moloch Horridus, or thorny devil. Also called mountain devil although they live in sandy desert areas. Their sole diet is ants.
It's always such a damp place the Devil's Glen in Ashford, County WIcklow or maybe it only seems that way because I tend to go there when it's raining too heavily to go elsewhere in Wicklow. But its narrow valley and tree cover does help keep the heavy rain off although it can leave the air chilly. The abundance of water makes it very green and it's one of only a few deciduous woods in Wicklow - lots of hazelnuts in late summer. The path on the left brings you to an impassable waterfall, a fall of about 40ft, which is impressive to see.
Just a half-mile west of Loveland, Colorado, this aptly named formation juts out of the ground and extends some miles to the north from US Hwy 34. The East side is a park, with trails that wind about for miles. The less often seen West side, which these photos are of, has been given over to residential development, though there are few houses right up next to the formation. For years, I always marveled at this natural structure, but never stopped to investigate, in a hurry to get to the beckoning mountains only a few miles from here. The last few times I've been through here, however, I've always stopped and hiked at least up to the "Keyhole" (the largest of many openings in the "wall"--one of which can be seen here). The forces that produced this formation also produced the "Garden of the Gods," Roxborough Park, and numerous other sandstone formation that parallel the Front Range of the Rockies.
