I collected this shot as I was rolling by on my Harley while shooting from the hip.

Lol, for the shot I tried to guide this Devil's Coachhorse into position with a little twig, but it chose to run up it instead. It posed quite nicely, but briefly, before throwing itself off the end, landing on my hand, where it opened its mandibles wide. Oooer, down you go!
I was looking for something completely different when I found this sitting on my hard drive. An old 'un from 2007.

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)

Showing a cluster of fruits (known as drupes) on a devil's club plant near Seward, Alaska.
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.
it's halloween and this year seems to be a real party year...there were TONS of folks dressed up this year...
so today i went to the GW (is there a day that i don't?)....in the GOODWILL at VAN NESS & MISSION there was a guy in a GORILLA COSTUME browsing the asiles...The security guard was even amazed. "Both of you have the Halloween spirit. The gorilla, and your SECURITY COSTUME are the best!" He laughed, though kept his eyes on the gorilla. (they must have slippery hands...)
Walking by OPERA PLAZA on VAN NESS , a sexy SUPER GIRL with cape & full costume walked by ADDA who asked, "Wouldn't it be easier to 'leap the buildings in a single bound'?
"Too early. Need my PEET'S COFFEE first! ", she smiled.
Inside PEET's the counter Vampire had the complete blacked out eye contacts which were chillingly scary, as was his perfectly fitted vampire fangs..."Cup of Drac, Red , no scream please! " I asked. He chuckled and bared his Vampire suckers!
Then in came a guy in complete black suit, white shirt & black tie with a black bowler hat. ADDA exclaimed, "Wow! Great Charlie Chaplin costume." He tipped his hat and said with a smile, "Oh. I dress like this everyday!"
Behind him was a woman in a 'fat lady in a pink bikini costume' attracted lots of attention mainly because she was the size of a VW Beetle! She was bombarded with praise and when asked if she was hot in her MACY'S parade ballon-type costume. "No, It has a fan inside which keeps the costume inflated & me cool !"
After the fun time at PEET'S COFFEE, ADDA took the bus where there was a teenager on the 38 Geary bus in a 'box carton' decorated as a 38 GEARY BUS!!!! He took up alot of room, but I think everyone appreciated the joke and made room for him. Further down the asile was a guy in full STAR WARS stormtrooper uniform & helmet ...he was checking his text messages from planet GEORGELUCAS, no doupt.
I got off the bus to mail some letters at the Geary/20th Avenue Post Office only to be greeted at the counter by an employee of the Moulin Rouge. Full on glitterly rhinestoned costume, head-dress, & mask...Absolutely beautiful!
Then it was onward home on the bus along with person in a complete yellow body costume as PIKACHU, a space alien, several cats, and elf. There were several little kids hitting the houses for their treats...pink princess, count dracula, Tinkerbell, & little leopard. In all, just a typical day in San Francisco actually...
Happy halloween everyone

The brightly colored pieces of cloth that you find
hanging in some of the trees along the Tower Trail
and elsewhere in the Monument are referred to as
prayer cloths, prayer bundles, prayer ribbons, prayer
ties, and prayer flags. They are physical, symbolic
representations of prayers and are here by American
Indian people as part of their religious ceremonies.
Please do not touch, take, or disturb these prayer
cloths in any way. It is considered culturally
insensitive to photograph these items and we request
that you do not do so.

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.
