The Devil Inside
INXS
Here come the world
With the look in its eye
Future uncertain but certainly slight
Look at the faces
Listen to the bells
It's hard to believe we need a place called hell
The devil inside
The devil inside
Every single one of us the devil inside
The devil inside
The devil inside
Every single one of us the devil inside
Final image from our Bombo trip yesterday morning. This one just screamed B&W. Hope you like "The Devil Inside". Cheers Mike
A very dry Devil’s Hole in Formby. A natural occurrence, this bowl within the sand dunes is normally a bit like a fresh water marsh, and is a breeding ground for Natterjack Toads. Not this year.

Lübeck - Moments
The legend of the devil and St. Mary's Church in Lübeck, Germany, tells of a clever deception.
In the 13th century, workers building the church told the curious devil they were constructing a wine bar. Pleased with this idea, the devil offered to help. Upon discovering the truth, the enraged devil attempted to destroy the church with a boulder. A quick-thinking worker promised to build a tavern nearby, appeasing the devil.
The "Devil's Stone" still rests near the church, supposedly bearing the devil's claw marks. In 1999, a bronze statue of a cheerful devil was placed on the stone. The Ratskeller tavern, built across from the church, fulfills the promise made to the devil. This charming tale showcases the wit of Lübeck's people and adds a whimsical touch to the church's history.
You look like an angel
Walk like an angel
Talk like an angel
But I got wise
You're the devil in disguise
Oh, yes, you are
The devil in disguise
You fooled me with your kisses
You cheated and you schemed
Heaven knows how you lied to me
You're not the way you seemed
You look like an angel
Walk like an angel
Talk like an angel
But I got wise
You're the devil in disguise
Oh, yes, you are
The devil in disguise

On my last evening of my trip through Zion and Bryce, we decided to head over to Escalante area and drop into this location for a possible sunrise shoot. Having shot sunset at Zion, we didn't arrive here until late at night, but when I looked outside I saw some good conditions for some star photography.
As my friend Jared was getting his photography gear together, I walked over and started looking at some of the trail signs around the area. Things along the lines of: "DANGER: Slot canyons can be very tight and you can get trapped in them", and other death warning signs. Then I look down and I see a logbook for people to sign in their times and locations. Being that it's dark outside, I can't see much of anything, so I start thinking to myself, what kind of place is this? I haven't seen signs like this when I have hiked into dangerous mountains and canyons with thousands of feet drops.
Fortunately it turned out that it was more of a precaution, because there was really nothing even remotely dangerous about the area. We set out in the dark and after a bit of wondering around, managed to find these beautiful rock formations. I could see the slight hint of the Milky Way just over the horizon, so I wanted to try and capture it if I could. Once we had our cameras setup, we used some CTO gels with our headlights to do some light painting. That part however took some time to fine tune the intensity and a nice even spread. I am pretty new to adding light painting to my night photography, so I would love some feedback.

Victoria Falls is a waterfall on the Zambezi River, located on the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe. It is one of the world's largest waterfalls, with a width of 5,604 ft. The region around it is inhabited by several species of plants and animals. Archaeology and oral history describe a long record of African knowledge of the site. Although known to some European geographers before the 19th century, Scottish missionary David Livingstone identified the falls in 1855, naming them Victoria Falls after Queen Victoria. Devil's Cataract, on the Zimbabwe side of Victoria Falls, is the lowest of the five Falls, with a drop of 60m.
Nearly lost a bagful of camera accessories here as a hugely strong squall blew it into the stream just behind where I took this shot.
Taken at the edge of Llyn Idwal looking towards Devil's Kitchen in Snowdonia, North Wales at dusk..... such a beautiful place. Funny old thing but Paul Forgham never flinched as I went for a swim to catch my bag......... getting the shot before we lost the light being his priority - Priceless........ Cheers mate, I can still hear you laughing now!
Best seen large, thanks for your time folks.
This was the best looking Chevrolet Camaro I've ever seen. I really like this car. The kind owner of this car had also a Dodge Nitro R/T. The editing cost me two hours. So I hope you will like it!
Some shots on Autogespot. The first and third picture are mine.
Please make some usefull comments and / or fave my photo if you like.

According to Oppenheiser, the new 300-horsepower 3.6-liter V6-equipped Camaro will run from zero to 60 mph in 6.1 seconds regardless of transmission choice. The V6 coupe will cover the quarter-mile in 14.5 seconds with an auto and 14.7 seconds with a manual, both at 97 mph. The brakes don't sound quite as impressive, though, as Oppenheiser said the base Camaro stops from 60 to zero mph in 132 feet.
Not surprisingly, the V8-equipped Camaro SS delivers better numbers across the board. Chevy's Camaro SS outfitted with the 422-hp 6.2-liter LS3 V8 six-speed manual hits 60 mph in 4.9 seconds and runs a 13.4-second quarter-mile at 108 mph according to Oppenheiser. Strangely enough, Oppenheiser also claims that the automatic-equipped SS Camaro, which is rated at 400 hp, runs from zero to 60 mph in just 4.6 seconds and through the quarter-mile in 13.3 seconds.
Seen at Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary, Brighton, Tasmania. Most of the larger Tasmanian wildlife is nocturnal so they often end up on the wrong side of interactions with motor vehicles. If you call the Bonorong hotline they will pick up the injured animal, operate on it if necessary, nurse it back to health, and reintroduce it to the wild. At the time I visited they had about a dozen devils and probably 50 or 60 kangaroos. The kangaroos will come eat out of your hand, but the devil's are enclosed. While not actually very dangerous, they have very powerful jaws and can easily bite off a finger or two if they get the chance. Devils are not predatory for the most part but rely mainly on scavenging.
A dust devil outside Tucson, Arizona.
A dust devil is a strong, well-formed, and relatively long-lived whirlwind, ranging from small (half a meter wide and a few meters tall) to large (more than 10 meters wide and more than 1000 meters tall). The primary vertical motion is upward. Dust devils are usually harmless, but can on rare occasions grow large enough to pose a threat to both people and property.
They are comparable to tornadoes in that both are a weather phenomenon of a vertically oriented rotating column of wind. Most tornadoes are associated with a larger parent circulation, the mesocyclone on the back of a supercell thunderstorm. Dust devils form as a swirling updraft under sunny conditions during fair weather, rarely coming close to the intensity of a tornado.
Dust devils form when hot air near the surface rises quickly through a small pocket of cooler, low-pressure air above it. If conditions are just right, the air may begin to rotate. As the air rapidly rises, the column of hot air is stretched vertically, thereby moving mass closer to the axis of rotation, which causes intensification of the spinning effect by conservation of angular momentum. The secondary flow in the dust devil causes other hot air to speed horizontally inward to the bottom of the newly forming vortex. As more hot air rushes in toward the developing vortex to replace the air that is rising, the spinning effect becomes further intensified and self-sustaining. A dust devil, fully formed, is a funnel-like chimney through which hot air moves, both upwards and in a circle. As the hot air rises, it cools, loses its buoyancy and eventually ceases to rise. As it rises, it displaces air which descends outside the core of the vortex. This cool air returning acts as a balance against the spinning hot-air outer wall and keeps the system stable.
We have just retuned from a week in the stunning Cairngorms, the weather wasn't great but we made the most of it none the less.
Here is one of the species of fungi we thought we may be a little late for. With some advice from a friend we managed to find a few specimens of this Devils Tooth, fortunately this one was still in good shape!
We then bumped into a very nice chap who turned out to be a local recorder of toothed fungi. He proceeded to show us dozens more specimens and half a dozen more species of toothed fungi. Unfortunately they had all gone their best but he invited us back up in the coming years and promised to show us around. He has also sent us an excellent guide he co-wrote to toothed fungi of the Cairngorms.
Devils Postpile; a dark cliff of columnar basalt, the formation was created by a lava flow at some time less than 100,000 years ago.
Because of its great thickness, much of the mass of pooled lava cooled slowly and evenly, which is why the columns are so long and so symmetrical. Columnar jointing occurs when certain types of lava contract while cooling.
Shown is an entry point to the Devils Springs in Ginnie Springs. This small spring run incorporates several individually named spring vents, which makes it one of the more popular locations at Ginnie Springs. Ginnie Springs, located on the Sante Fe River near High Springs, FL., is a premier springing location owing to its numerous swimmable springs and camping opportunities directly on the water.

Have you ever seen anything like this?
It's called Devils Postpile National Monument - located near Mammoth Mountain in California. These unique and natural columns were formed roughly 100,000 years ago: thanks to volcanoes and lava flows.
Also interesting is that the Postpile was once a part of Yosemite National Park - but the discovery of gold in 1905 near Mammoth Lakes prompted a boundary change that left the formation on adjacent public land.

Let's Travel the World!
I've spent the past decade exploring our world; and documenting the journey in photos and stories. For all the latest updates, follow along on:
This capture of Devil's Thumb is located North of Delta, Colorado. Devil's Thumb Golf Course is named after this rock formation.
The Devil’s bridge is an old ottoman bridge in Bulgaria which connected Thrace with Aegean Sea. It was built by a Bulgarian builder named Dimitar between 1515 and 1518 in order of sultan Selim I. The Bulgarian name of this bridge is “Дяволски мост” (Diavolski most – Devil’s bridge) and the Turkish name is Şeytan Köprüsü. Now this bridge isn’t close to any main roads and it is only a memory for old great times.
The Devil’s Bridge is located near the town of Ardino and the village of Dyadovtsi in the Rhodope mountains, southeastern Bulgaria. See the precise location.
The legend of the Devil’s bridge
Now let’s go back to the XVI century and our builder Dimitar. Until then all bridges built on that place had been destroyed by the rough Arda River and most of the people believed that this place had been cursed. But despite the curse Dimitar decided to try to make another bridge.
Thereupon the Devil appeared to our hero and offered him to reveal the secret for building the bridge. But the Devil had some requirements (the things with small letters in the contract): to inwall the shadow of his wife (that means that the wife will die soon after building the bridge, it is common story in Bulgarian legends), to build it in 40 days, and some other easy tasks like these. Anyway the most interesting requirement for us was that the Devil wanted his own image to be integrated in the bridge. But it was very complicated. He wanted to be both visible and invisible, both touchable and non-existing. If the builder could not do it, the Devil would take his soul as well. About the wife – she was a victim in any case, her soul was already taken.
But Dimitar was able to surprise even the Devil. He was ready in 40 days, the Satan had its requirements fulfilled and left with only one soul – the wife’s one. But his face was staying forever above Arda River thanks to Dimitar the builder. Thx to www.andrey-andreev.com/en/the-devils-bridge/
The confluence of Porcupine Creek and Devil Canyon with the Bighorn River and Bighorn Canyon at the Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area, a National Park Service unit that straddles the Montana-Wyoming State line between the Pryor and Bighorn Mountain ranges. The Devil Canyon Overlook, which is only accessible from the south entrance near Lovell, WY (there is no through-road from the north to south end of the National Recreation Area) offers a number of views of the Bighorn River 1000 to 1500 feet below as it flows north through the third largest canyon in the United States.

Devils Fork Creek flows thru hollowed out sandstone. I wish I had taken more time photographing this area, but even though we were there very early its still an effort to get a shot before others arrive
Devils Tower, also known as Mato Tipila, which means “Bear Lodge” in Lakota, is a volcanic neck that rises 1,267 feet from the Black Hills in northeastern Wyoming. It was the very first national monument in the United States, bestowed that designation by Teddy Roosevelt on September 24th, 1906. In recent years around one percent of the 400,000 annual visitors actually climbs the tower. We’ll get to how you do that in a later article.
Long before the tower was being recognized by the American government, Native tribes had geographical and cultural connections to it. They called it everything from ‘Aloft on a Rock’ (Kiowa) to ‘Grizzly Bear Lodge’ (Lakota). It wasn’t given its demonic name until Col. Richard Irving Dodge led an expedition through Wyoming in 1875. His interpreter botched the translation, calling it ‘Bad God’s Tower’, which was eventually shortened to Devils Tower.
There are two great legends regarding the tower and the unusual looking columns that bear a striking resemblance to claw marks. It’s no surprise that both the stories, from the Lakota Sioux and the Kiowa, involve a similar narrative. In the Lakota Sioux legend, six girls were out picking flowers when they were attacked and chased by bears. The Great Spirit felt bad for them, and raised the ground beneath their feet. The bears gave chase and attempted to climb the newly formed tower, but they couldn’t get to the top. The bears fell off, clawing the sides of the monolith.
The Kiowa legend follows a similar storyline but includes astrology as well. Seven little Kiowa girls were out playing, spotted by several giant bears, and were chased. The girls prayed to the Great Spirit, and sure enough the ground rose beneath them towards the Heavens. The bears tried to climb the rock but only managed to leave their deep claw marks on the sides. The girls reached the sky and were turned into the constellation Pleiades.
Devils have been successfully bred in South Australia and are being returned to the wild on off-shore islands in Tasmania, in an attempt to ensure that the terrible facial tumour is kept at bay.
