Devils Tower is located in the northeast corner of Wyoming approximately 70 miles northeast of Gillette off Interstate 90.
This was one of the few places that I have taken a photo from the highway leading to it, instead of going into the park itself. Could not see how I,d get a better photo than this. Did I make a mistake by not going into the park or was it better to shoot a photo and move on ?
Liked this version of the why......... by the Native Americans.
Another version tells that two Sioux boys wandered far from their village when Mato the bear, a huge creature that had claws the size of teepee poles, spotted them, and wanted to eat them for breakfast. He was almost upon them when the boys prayed to Wakan Tanka the Creator to help them. They rose up on a huge rock, while Mato tried to get up from every side, leaving huge scratch marks as he did. Finally, he sauntered off, disappointed and discouraged. The bear came to rest east of the Black Hills at what is now Bear Butte. Wanblee, the eagle, helped the boys off the rock and back to their village. A painting depicting this legend by artist Herbert A. Collins hangs over the fireplace in the visitor's center at Devils Tower.

The Tasmanian Devil is endemic to Tasmania (Australia) and the Devil Facial Tumour Disease (DFTD) has had a devasting impact on their population.

I've finally processed the rest of the Devil's Lake monochrome images I photographed back in April. I've uploaded several here, and the rest are in this set.
Formed by the glaciers 15,000 years ago, when they filled in both ends of a great river valley, Devil's Lake has always occupied a unique place in the Baraboo hills, its still waters surrounded by brooding 500-foot quartzite bluffs. The Indians called it Spirit Lake, and that seems a more accurate description than the modern name. Devil's Lake is one of Wisconsin's busiest state parks, and it tends to get overrun in the midsummer tourist season. But catch it in the off-season, and its brooding presence comes through. It does seem to be presided over by spirits. Black and white seems the best way to capture its haunted mystery photographically on days like this.

Crystallized salts compose the jagged formations of this forbidding landscape.
Deposited by ancient salt lakes and shaped by winds and rain, the crystals are forever changing.
Listen carefully.On a warm day you may hear a metallic cracking sound as the salt pinnacles expand and contract.

Day 7 : Spent my afternoon looking for Zebra Slot Canyon. Went left instead of straight, so I took the very wrong way, and walked for about 2h30. Didn't found it obviously, and decided to go back the day after, with some more information about the real trail. I finished the day photographing the sunset at Devils Garden, a cool rock formation not far from Zebra Slot Canyon.

This photograph was taken on a 12 mile trek in devils garden in Arches national park, Utah. I really liked the aspect that we could see far away snow cap on the mountains in the sweltering heat with thin the arches national park. The showcase of extremes in temperature at different locations and contrast of colors was interesting to capture

This is at the same time a long and short report , about the traditional sacred and profane feast with pagan roots, called "u Ballu di Diavuli" (The Dance of the Devils) that I made this year on the afternoon of Easter in the Sicilian village of Prizzi (in the province of Palermo); this feast, which has medieval origins, is the representation of the eternal struggle of Evil (two Devils and Death) against the Good (Christ and the Virgin Mary). Devils wears a wool suit in red (the color of the fire of hell ...), also wearing a flashy iron mask with a big mouth adorned with big teeth and a lolling tongue, the mask is surmounted by two horns while the back is covered with a fleece of a goat that covers shoulders and back (a Devil has a black fleece, the other Devil a white fleece), and Devils shake pieces of iron chains which are agitated bumping against the masks; the Death wears a wool suit of yellow ocher, wearing a leather mask always yellow, which looks like a skull, from his mouth come out long teeth, it holds in its hands an "instrument of death" very similar to a medieval crossbow. The feast begins on Easter morning, Death along with the two devils (which have become even four, to involve as many passers-by) roam the streets of the town of Prizzi, engaging with the passers jokes and cajoling, passers are invited to dance with them at the sound of the well-paced band music. Often the two devils "capture the spirit" of a passer, which to be able to see his liberated soul .... must issue a small donation symbolic .... Nevertheless, the name of the Sicilian feast "the Dance of the Devils" originates from a very special time of the event, when the two statues of the Risen Christ and the Virgin Mary are in front each other of them to meet (U 'Ncontru): it is here, between the two statues, the two Devils and the Death staged a bustle of dancing, jumping, coaxing ... with the aim of preventing this meeting, but they will be slain by the swords of the Angels (Angels to guard the Risen Christ), so the Mother and her Son can meet, in a blaze of joy of the devotees, with the Good that has defeated the well forces of Evil ...

To draw attention to the plight of the Tasmanian devil I am going to be making a work a day throughout October inspired by Tasmanian Devils.
Tasmanian Devils population has declined by 90% in large areas of Tasmania due to Devil facial tumor disease. In November I will be taking part in the Garmin Point to Pinnacle; a 21.4km long and just over 1,270 meters in elevation run up Tasmania's Mount Wellington to raise money for The Devil Island Project (www.savethetasmaniandevil.org.au/) If you would like to sponsor me you can at this link> garmin-point-pinnacle.everydayhero.com/au/Liz
