Clathrus archeri is a striking species and reached Europe from Australia or New Zealand at the start of World War I (1914). Like the common stinkhorn and the dog stinkhorn, this fungus emerges from a partly buried white ball
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.
Known for their outrageous flavor combinations and flamboyant decor, Devil Doughnuts is a local chain. They are quite popular with the local police.
I blogged about building this one here:

Natural sea arch known locally as Devil's Bridge on the Atlantic side of the northeast coast of Antigua. I used a ND darkening filter with f25 and 1/4 second exposure to blur the water in mid morning light. This was as close as I could get to the edge without splashing water spray on the lens, the waves come crashing all the way from Africa.
Devils Tower (Lakota: Matȟó Thípila ("Bear Lodge") or Ptehé Ǧí ("Brown Buffalo Horn") (Arapaho: Wox Niiinon [5]) is an igneousintrusion or laccolith in the Bear Lodge Mountains (part of the Black Hills) near Hulettand Sundance in Crook County, northeasternWyoming, above the Belle Fourche River. It rises dramatically 1,267 feet (386 m) above the surrounding terrain and the summit is 5,114 feet (1,559 m) above sea level.
Devils Tower was the first declared United States National Monument, established on September 24, 1906, by President Theodore Roosevelt. The Monument's boundary encloses an area of 1,347 acres (545 ha).
“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
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)
The secret side of me
I never let you see
I keep it caged
But I can't control it
So stay away from me
The beast is ugly
I feel the rage
And I just can't hold it
It's scratching on the walls
In the closet, in the halls
It comes awake
And I can't control it
Hiding under the bed
In my body, in my head
Why won't somebody come and save me from this?
Make it end!
Devils Tower is a sacred place for Northern Plains Indian Tribes and the first official United States National Monument. Many may recognize the iconic image appearing in the movie "Close Encounters of the Third Kind".
Pleased to meet you!

JMT DAY 5 - STAR TRAILS OVER DEVILS POSTPILE
Star trails over Devils Postpile
What waited at Reds Meadow for us was smoky skies caused by another fire called Lions Fire. It was as thick as hazy mist that never seems to lift at chilly morning. The smoke was burung inside our lungs.
First order of business at Reds Meadow was resupply. Our resupplies were delivered at the campground by Henry’s family, while his son being picked up and ending his short journey with us on the trail.
Once our camp was set up, we headed over to the resort where we took a shower and got our batteries charged. Night fell, and it was time for astrophotography. I retraced our track back to Devils Postpile, where we had plodded by before reaching the campground.
I dawdled up and down the trails around the monument to find a good spot to frame it with the Milky Way, rising in the southwest. But I soon learned that it was not possible because the galaxy and the monument simply could not be aligned together while the monument’s iconic facade was facing west.
So, I decided to do star trails instead. Very simple composition - posts erected in slight curvy shape was the center of the focus with the piles of crumpled posts in the foreground and stars traveling across the heavenly body.
It's been a busy year for me. Luckily, I have time for vacation.
This was taken at Escalante, UT. I love this place, it's like a adult disneyland. I can imaging myself wondering around this place for months and never get tired of it. The truth is, no matter how long is your vacation, you still have to get back to realities and facing your duties. Even thought I'm back from this place but I never stop thinking about this places.
There's so many things that I want to accomplish this year and I just accomplish one - hit 5 different national parks this year.
thanks for viewing and have a great day. Hope to see you soon on Flickr ^__^

EXPLORED!
In the afternoon of our last day, we walked the rim of Victoria Falls, beginning at Devil's Cataract on one end. This small section of the falls is separated from the rest by Cataract Island, and has a drop of only 180 feet. It is also the weakest point in rock face of the falls, and has the lowest top edge. Eventually, over thousands of years, the water will wear it away and this section will become the main channel of the river as less goes over the rest of the current face.
Devil's Cataract is not the location of the "Devil's Pool," where people swim in a pool on the edge of the falls. The Devil's Pool is closer to the middle, adjacent to Livingstone Island.
The fence in the foreground is the only barrier between the path and the edge of the chasm. I always forget to post a shot for "Fence Friday," but I remembered today. HFF!
Blended from three exposures. See the note on the picture in Comments for the location of today's shot.
How did this Tower Form? Well, it's amazing! I've learned that the process began about 50 million years ago when Magma (molton rock) was injected into layers of sedimentary rock, forming the Tower one and one-half miles below the earth's surface. It has since taken millions of years to erode away the surrounding sedimentary rock to expose the Tower we see today!
I just got home late last night from a recent trip to the Badlands, Devil's Tower, and Mount Rushmore! I'm having a blast going through all my pictures!
Take Devil's Staircase trekking and enjoy the breathtaking views of the Southern Plains. This famous route is a 14km long trail of sharp zig-zag twists that are extremely steep and difficult, but quite thrilling to travel.

A great way to enjoy the magnificent Glen Coe is a hike over the Devils Staircase, a route that follows the old military road that once headed to Fort William. The trail is part of the West Highland Way and is a good walk for the less experienced and families. The Devils Staircase was given the name by the 400 soldiers who battled horrendous conditions to build it in the 17th century.
