It was too hot to spend much time at Devils Tower, but we got some good shots of it looming majestically through the trees.
April 13: Came across this small budded twig near the Staithe at Bungay. Nothing special you might say...but this has fallen from a black poplar. And what's so special about this tree, you may ask? Well tree lovers speak about it in reverential tones: John Constable, the famous English landscape artist, immortalised it in many of his paintings of the Suffolk countryside. It's a majestic tree, which likes to grow near water and can reach heights of up to 100ft. But because of its quirky pollination habits, it's becoming quite rare.
Its timber was much prized pre-industrial revolution, providing wood for a range of essentials from matches and match boxes to wooden clogs and fruit boxes.
These buds fell from a tree, near the Riverside Centre, which must be 70ft tall, and is covered in ivy. The buds reveal that it's a male poplar with crimson catkins; green female catkins ripen on separate trees. The buds are sometimes known as devil's fingers...and it's said to be unlucky to pick up fallen twigs. Oooh, I'm not superstitious but I feel compelled to return the twig from whence it came. Mustn't tempt fate!
Devil's Den in Gettysburg. Matthew Brady photographed this place during the Civil War as did other photographers. It was said that one photographer repositioned one of the bodies for better composition. It is still a solemn place and the people who were there at the same time as I was were respectfully quite while touring the area. The rocks served as shelter from the battle but also served as a tomb after the battle was over. I often wonder how many of those soldiers, mostly young men and boys were idenified and returned to their families after the war.
Devil's Tower, Wyoming. If you look at the full size image, you can see at least 9 climbers on the ledges or the rock face.
A Thorny Devil from the sandy desert of western Queensland. An iconic and interesting dragon at home in the Australian arid zone.
Started off in a place called Devils Dyke where I stepped in a ton of dog shit, then off to a pub in harpenden where i stunk out the place and round the streets. All in all a good time was had!
The Dark background,the abstract shpe of the smoke below and the witch-like-shape of the smoke opening its wings to fly tempted me to keep the title like that of a horror movie-The Devil's Den.
Looking from the Upper Devil's Slide site (a little further N along the coastline & highway) towards Lower, aka Little Devil's Slide.
Little Devil's Slide has a very interesting history. While coastal erosion over the 60+ years since it was built has certainly had an effect, a man bought the grounds back in the 1960s or 1970s & leveled the terrain surrounding the structure, with the intent of building housing on the site!
The Devils Postpile is an amazing sight. I could attempt to write a description of how this formation was created, but you'd be better off checking out this link.
For a scale, check out the size of the trees. These are huge columns of rock.
Home of the endangered Devil's Hole Pupfish (Cyprinodon diabolis). The pool, deep in a rocky fissure, is surrounded by a chain link fence at Ash Meadows NWR, Nevada. 29 Dec 2006.
