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.
Although I don't post here photos that weren't captured by me, I thought this is too beautiful not to share with all of you. Especially taking into consideration that I'll probably not have a chance to get to this place in the nearest future, because it needs some rock-climbing skills, which I don't posses. These photos were taken by my brother and his friends.
The place called Devil's Bridge in the South of Armenia is a natural rock formation and the deepest part of the Vorotan gorge. There are salt formations inside the caves, which shape quite interesting and sometimes scary figures with colors varying from orange to brown and from green to blue. The streams flowing in-between the rocks fall into Vorotan river. Up the rocks there are hot springs, so one can occasionally see people swimming there.
This is Armenia! :)
Thanks for your visit and have a great day!

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.
My take on the Devil's Golfcourse. An often over-photographied piece of Death Valley landscape. This image is actually done almost entirely in-camera, including the red sky (with a filter).

The kea is a highly intelligent alpine parrot who lives on the South island of New Zealand.
Besides intelligent, the bird is extremely curious. A somewhat nasty habit is it is biting all rubber from cars or trying to get whatever other interesting (like my lens hood :-)
I enjoyed photographing this beautiful bird though, in its habitat and free as a bird!
Taken hand held near Milford Sound.
Title and lyrics are from 'Christine's song' by The Flying Burrito Brothers.
I love winter in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. It means plenty of opportunity to practice my long exposure time skills. This is Devil's Creek Falls and is accessible only by a dirt road with 1000 foot drops into the American River Canyon and a 107-year old suspension bridge with a 3/100 safety rating. The things we do for photographs.

This is a famous place in Colombia known as the "devil's nose". It is in the middle of the road right after a curve, so it is always kinda hard to stop in there to take a picture, this time though there was a bit of traffic and the car was going slow enough to be able to shot a picture.
Yesterday Kaycee and I played tourist again in the off season;-) Very rarely does Kaycee have a weekend off so, it was nice to get away and do something fun.
Very cheeky mr. Devil but I make my own decisions here! Taken on my holiday. Holzmarkt, Berlin.

The moral theology of the devil starts out with the principle: “Pleasure is sin.” The he goes on to work it the other way: “All sin is pleasure.”
After that he points out that pleasure is practically unavoidable and that we have a natural tendency to do things that please us, from which he reasons that all our natural tendencies are evil and that our nature is evil in itself. And he leads us to the conclusion that no one can possibly avoid sin, since pleasure is inescapable.
After that, to make sure that no one will try to escape or avoid sin, he adds that what is unavoidable connot be a sin. Then the whole concept of sin is thrown out the window as irrelevant, and people decide that there is nothing left except to live for pleasure, and in that way pleasures that are naturally good become evil by de-ordination and lives are thrown away in unhappiness and sin.

The name ‘Devil’s Hole’ is a dramatic one but was only invented in the 19th century.
Formerly it was called ‘Le Creux de Vis’ or Spiral Cave on the island of Jersey.
One possible derivation for its modern name is connected with the shipwreck of a French boat in 1851.
Its figurehead was thrust by the tide straight into the hole and a local sculptor transformed the torso into a wooden devil, complete with horns.
Today this devil’s metal replica stands in a pool on the way down to the crater, lending a peculiarly supernatural atmosphere to the winding path down to the Devil’s Hole itself.
Opened in 1852, the Devil's Island system received convicts from the Prison of St-Laurent-du-Maroni. All had been deported from all parts of the Second French Empire, and was infamous for its harsh treatment of detainees, with a death rate of 75% at their worst, until it was closed down in 1953.
I think this is a devil scorpionfish rather than a stonefish.
Most of the time devil scorpionfish ( like stonefish) lie immobile and are so well camoflaged they are not easily noticed. They are ambush predators which lunge at passing fish and gulp them down.
If threatened they will erect a row of venomous spines along their back. (It seems the venom of the devil scorpionfish may be less painful and dangerous than that of the stonefish but I have no wish to test that out).
