Devils Wall.
This is the „Teufelsmauer“, a geologic oddity that can be found near the Harz mountains and near to my stay last weekend. I visited the place before, it's a strange landmark. Weather was great, bot so much the time I got there, but at least some landscape pictures.
John Krakauer wrote about this mountain in his book EIGER DREAMS I think, and always inspired me to get closer to it!

At Nelson Ledges State Park there is a cave near to the main waterfall called "Devils Icebox." It's a beautiful little spot, and it makes for a nice cool down on the hotter summer days..they don't call it the icebox for no reason! It attracts two types of people: Photographers, and stoners. So if your lucky enough to catch it empty of smoke, you can draw up some pretty great shots inside!
For the record, this was taken with a Nikon D80. Not sure why it was posted as a Powershot!

I love my devil bunny.
Several years ago I spotted him at the market on Portobello Road - it was love at first sight. But everyone else thought he was nasty & horrible and the big meanies finally persuaded me not to get him. I didn't forget, however, and reminded the others on a regular basis just how rotten they were to have denied me my devil bunny.
Exactly one year later, we were back at Portobello Road: same crowd, same hangovers etc etc. And there he was! My devil bunny had waited for me! It was obviously meant to be - so I scooped him up & brought him home & he's been giving Scott the eye ever since.
I love my devil bunny.
[German, mid-late 19th century, traditional Black Forest hunting lodge coathook. The feet are ibex horns. His outfit is what was worn/carried on hunting expeditions at the time.]
Devils Tower was the first declared United States National Monument, established on September 24, 1906, by President Theodore Roosevelt. The name Devil's Tower originated in 1875 during an expedition led by Col. Richard Irving Dodge when his interpreter misinterpreted the name to mean Bad God's Tower. This was later shortened to the Devil's Tower. It rises dramatically 1,267 feet (386 m) above the surrounding terrain and the summit is 5,112 feet (1,558 m) above sea level.

Ahh the best moment of school Purim Party! The Devil gets to meet a devoted Metalhead!!!!
Esther is that metalhead, and the best part of her costume, is that this is what she wore outside of school. Not this dressed up, but still.
Still, the Devil was so happy, She gave Esther a big hug! Esther turned down the offers of gold, evil minion protectors, and the power to set people on fire. She's always been a good person, so she didn't want any of that.
They discussed Old Metallica vs. The New Metallica of the day.
Truly a great moment in human-devil relations.

"Hickory Horned Devil
Citheronia regalis (Fabricius)
This caterpillar is the larva of the Royal Walnut Moth, also known as the Regal Moth. The larva is not one for a timid person to suddenly discover. It has a scary, frightful appearance resembling a small dragon with up to five pairs of long, curving hornlike structures over the back of its thorax with the rest of the body covered with shorter spikes. The body color ranges from deep blue-green to tan with orange spikes tipped with black. Shorter spikes are black. Though very ferocious appearing, it is quite harmless to handle. They are enormous in size, being five to six inches long and nearly 3/4-inch in diameter. They feed for a period of 37 to 42 days on the leaves of hickory, walnut, butternut, pecan, ash, lilac, persimmon, sycamore, sumac and sweet gum. Larvae mature in late summer, wandering around searching for a place to burrow underground to pupate. Overwintering occurs in the pupal stage.
The moth has a wingspan of five to six inches and is seen in midsummer. It has a long body covered with orange yellow hair. The forewings are gray with orange veins and yellow spots. The hindwings are primarily orange with scattered yellow patches. "
