30/365 The Devil
The last of three I made for Diorama band contest based on their video The Scale. The track was featured on their latest album titled Even The Devil Doesn't Care.
And it's quite obvious why I picked out the red horned character, hah, isn't it?
And.. it's color chalks, guys. Never do this.

Not a Great Shot but still worth an upload.
These aggressive, carniverous predators are commonly found across the UK and Europe in a variety of habitats. The Devil’s Coach Horse can sometimes be mistaken for an earwig but when threatened its scorpion-like posture will give the game away! The Devil’s Coach Horse belongs to the Rove Beetle family, called the Staphylinidae which are sometimes referred to as the ‘Staphs’ for short. There are approximately 1000 species of rove beetle (given this name as they are constantly on the move) found in the UK which amounts to roughly a quarter of all British beetles.
The Devil’s Coach Horse is the largest of the rove beetles and can reach a length of around 28mm. Typical to this family, the Devil’s Coach Horse is a long-bodied, uniformly black beetle with an extended exposed powerful abdomen with shortened wing cases (elytra). Although able to fly its wings are rarely used.
The beetle is common in the UK and is found throughout Europe. It also inhabits parts of Australasia and the Americas but it is not native to these areas having been introduced.
The Devil’s Coach Horse occupies a wide range of habitats requiring damp conditions and is common in woods, hedgerows, meadows, parks and gardens, being seen between April and October. It is also known to make its way indoors now and then, particularly in older properties.
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
I had seen these devil masks for sale at the large covered market in Agua Caliente, but wasn't sure what they represented--they reminded me of the masks worn by Lucha Libre in Mexico. I wanted to buy one just because they were so bright and unusual, but didn't have time.
One the return trip from Machu Picchu on Peru Rail, the porter donned a colorful outfit and one of these masks and cavorted through the car, teasing the men and daring the pretty girls to dance. Cell phones recorded the festive interchange. Someone on a Trip Advisor review I read griped about the dance and the show of hand-made alpaca fashions that followed the trickster's antics, but I thought it was awesome!
Be Safe and secure. Don't let a devil spoil your day.

Why are they called "deviled"?
Apparently (translation: according to History.com), "the first known printed mention of ‘devil’ as a culinary term appeared in Great Britain in 1786, in reference to dishes including hot ingredients or those that were highly seasoned and broiled or fried. By 1800, deviling became a verb to describe the process of making food spicy. But in some parts of the world, the popular egg hors d’oeuvres are referred to as “mimosa eggs,” “stuffed eggs,” “dressed eggs” or “salad eggs”—especially when served at church functions—in order to avoid an association with Satan."
So anyway... these "stuffed/deviled" eggs have:
• Dijon mustard,
• mayonnaise (Duke's brand),
• garlic & onion powder,
• sambal oelek chili paste,
• one finely chopped red jalapeño pepper,
• freshly ground black pepper,
• salt,
• basil,
• paprika,
and are garnished with a caper.
Devil's Lake, Wisconsin
Devil's Lake was originally a gorge of the Wisconsin River prior to the last ice age. At what is now the southern end of the lake, the river turned from a southerly direction to an easterly direction. During the ice age, a lobe of the glacier passed to the east of the Baraboo Hills and came up the river valley. It deposited materials and then melted, leaving a terminal moraine blocking the river, forming an earthen dam. Another moraine was deposited at the north end of the lake. The river eventually found a new course to the east of the Baraboo Hills, where the glacier had been, leaving a portion of the river gorge between the moraines filled with water. This body of water is Devil's Lake. - info from Wikipedia, the free encylopedia
I saw a photo of this bridge posted on John4KC's Flickr stream and thought it might be a good time to post these.
This is a two-span through truss bridge that crosses the Big Piney River at Devil's Elbow on U.S. Route 66 (currently Teardrop Road) in Pulaski County, Missouri. The bridge is still open to traffic, but a little TLC wouldn't hurt. It was built in 1923 by Riley & Bailey, Contractors, however, it was made obsolete by a new U.S. Route 66 bridge in 1942.
Traveling east to west, the direction we were headed, the traveler crosses four concrete deck girder spans with a curved alignment, then two riveted 8-panel Parker through trusses, and finally one riveted Warren pony truss.
The total length of the bridge is 588.8 feet, with the largest span being 161.0 feet. The deck is 19.4 feet wide and the vertical clearance is 14.0 feet (although it's marked 13 feet 8 inches).
The bridge appears on the Devil's Elbow USGS topographic map. The bridge's approximate location is 37°50'51"N, 92°3'44"W (37.8475, -92.0621)—that's actually where I was standing when I took this photo.
The bridge's inventory number is MONBI 18976 (Missouri bridge number on the National Bridge Inventory).
During the inspection of September 2007, the deck condition rating was Poor (4 out of 9). The superstructure condition rating was Poor (4 out of 9). The substructure condition rating was Fair (5 out of 9). It's Sufficiency Rating was 30.9 out of 100. The overall condition of the bridge was appraised as Structurally Deficient.
In 2007, an average of 100 vehicles crossed daily.

Here is one more photo that I decided to edit after searching through my files. It is a shot from the Devils Garden in the Grand Staircase, Utah.
I took it about 10-15 minutes after sunset in hopes of capturing some type of glow on the rocks as well as the sky, I hope you enjoy.

You would have thought that this was his idea, if the look on his face is any indication.

Photographed at Devils Garden in Arches National Park in Utah, USA. This park has a large number of weathered rock formations and many stone arches. In a spectacular and beautiful desert setting.
We got there before sunrise and it was a cold October day presenting a pretty dark and moody place. The hexagonal columns are quite a sight.
St. Croix landmark tumbles

It stood by the river for thousands of years, shaped by wind, water, heat and cold, and was admired by countless visitors easing past in canoes, boats and inner tubes. It became part of a town's identity and a bond across generations.
But the Devil's Chair, an ancient natural rock formation on the Minnesota side of the St. Croix River near Taylors Falls, is largely gone -- a heap of broken stone scattered about what was the chair's base.
Officials at Minnesota Interstate State Park, which included the famous landmark among its attractions, said Monday that they believe vandals caused much of the chair's high backrest to fall.
"There were scuff marks and pry marks that look like people tried to push more of it over," said Larry Buchholz, park manager. "It was helped to fall."
A rock climber reported the landmark's destruction on Saturday, he said. The
climber had been in the area the previous weekend and saw the Devil's Chair intact, so the damage had to have been done since then.
It is "difficult and challenging but not impossible" to climb to the chair site, Buchholz said.
The Chisago County Sheriff's Office and state conservation officers are
investigating, and notices asking for information have been posted in the area.
Park officials plan to inspect the remaining rock to assess its stability.
"It was our primary scenic, geological and cultural formation, and now it's gone," Buchholz said. "You can't replace it. Once it's gone, it's gone forever."
Both the park and the town of Taylors Falls used the unusual rock formation as a logo.
"It's been a point of local pride since before the park was established in 1895," Buchholz said.
The park also features unusual formations collectively known as the Devil's Parlor -- three or four "potholes" caused by swirling water and sand from melting glaciers boring through solid rock. Two of those holes side by side are known as the Devil's Footprint. They were so named long ago, Buchholz said, "because if you couldn't explain something in the natural world you blamed it on the devil."
Mayor Mike Buchite, a Taylors Falls resident since 1989, said that he has admired the formation since he first saw it in 1971 on a post-prom field trip with other members of the Elk River High School graduating class. He said he hopes an investigation finds that the collapse occurred naturally.
"Mother Nature put it there, and you stand there and look at it in awe," he said. "If Mother Nature were to take it away, you'd still look at it in awe and wonder. But if vandalism was involved, that makes you feel violated."
The city may consider offering a reward for information if vandalism was involved, he said.
Buchite said he visited the site Monday and saw that part of the formation
remains. "It's the back rest area that's gone," he said. "It looks more like a stool now. Maybe we'll rename it the Devil's Stool."
Amy Frischmon, 35, operates Taylors Falls Scenic Boat Tours, which carries
thousands of area people and tourists past the Devil's Chair and other stone
formations each year. "The Devil's Chair is best seen from the river, in the Dalles area of the St. Croix," she said. "It was a pinnacle of rock that looked like a high-backed chair. Millions of visitors must have seen it over the years." Losing it "is quite a tragedy for our little community," she said.
Her great-grandfather started the boat tours company in 1906, "and I grew up climbing in those rocks," she said. "My older kids all got to know the Devil's Chair. Now all I can think about is my 3-year-old will never know it. That makes me sick to my stomach."
That vandalism may have brought the formation down "makes it that much more
horrible," Frischmon said.

That's Philip [trailname=Fip] going over The Nose at Devil's Courthouse in western North Carolina, during one of our summertime expeditions in the Great Smoky Mountains. There were over thirty of us on this one. It was only a week-long but it included backpacking the Art Loeb Trail, rapelling at Devil's Courthouse and canoeing the French Broad River. There were three faces at The Courthouse: the 600-foot Tourist; the 800-foot Wall; and the 1000-foot Nose. We did all three faces. My favorite was the Nose. After going over the edge, there was about 150 feet of free-falling before touching rock again.
Pee Wee the Chihuahua is definitely a devil. If you stand still long enough, he will molest your leg.
This cross has an old legend around it. From www.guiarepsol.com/en/tourism/destinations/themed/popular...:
According to local residents, a brash young man, known for his party animal spirit, met a beautiful girl. His plight to win her affections in order to prove his heartthrob status finally won her over. Their date took place on a cold, stormy night. Lightning struck nearby, lighting up what should have been the girl's beautiful legs; however, what the man actually saw were claws. He fled in terror and reached the Convent of the Barefoot Carmelites, where he hung on tightly to the cross, asking for divine help to prevent him from being taken by the devil. To this day, his handprint can be seen on the cross.
