Stepping off the beaten path, I found this composition of Balanced Rock in Arches National Park.

 

NPS-

Balanced Rock, one of the most iconic features in the park, stands a staggering 128 feet tall. While this formation may appear to be an epic balancing act, it’s actually not balanced at all. The slick rock boulder of Entrada Sandstone sits attached to its eroding pedestal of Dewey Bridge mudstone. The exposure of these two rock strata layers are ideal for the formation of arches and balanced rocks.

 

Balanced Rock defies gravity but this won’t always be the case. Eventually, the 3,600 ton (over 4 million kg) boulder will come tumbling down as the erosional process continues to shape the landscape. In the winter of 1975-76, Balanced Rock’s smaller sibling “Chip-Off-the-Old-Block” collapsed, proving that there is no better time than the present to see this awe-inspiring giant.

The two juveniles amused themselves for quite some time, balancing on the flagpole and playing with the pulleys.

When the Sunshine Coast of BC receives a great deal of rain, the river that runs through Cliff Gilker Park, churns with activity. I wanted to catch that momentum, and illustrate the fast moving water.

 

This spot has an overhanging branch with a fragile outcropping teetering below. I figured that a stationary figure might further enhance the action of the water, in this long exposure.

WAMX SD40M-2 4189 sits where it came to rest after Grand Elk train 303 hit a wash out under the 28th street bridge in Wyoming. Unlike 4125, it did not roll completely onto its side.

The color of the flower was almost too vibrant to a nice shot. So, I sprayed it with water so the drops could be the "star" of the show.

Amazing the things you find in the woods. This teeter totter has been placed on a secluded and somewhat little used trail to cater for the growing mountain bikers that use the woods these days.

Well done "big H" !

Welcome to NEW HASHIMA (端島), an urban landscape born from the ashes of the once-thriving Hashima Island mining colony. In a world teetering on the edge of cybernetic revolution and rampant overpopulation, this neon-lit megalopolis emerges as a gritty testament to society’s desperate pursuit of innovative development.

Harbouring few views is the one you see, your loungeroom furniture threadbare like the lawn you

look out at, your tilting naval-ship wallpaper as disorientating as the pale ceiling-ed sky, those masts

and chimney stacks background behind the wire

baskets that hold your things, the knickknacks and souvenirs, the incidentals so that you wonder if your weeping eye can unstick its barnacle gaze, smelted against a crystal-love that has surely disturbed the rain. You listen for the shrill call of plovers, sigh as you

fight against long seconds, your children teetering

in you like a shiver, their incandescent selves glowing like a hologram. And pillow-hardened, tooth-ground,

you don’t speak of wanting—when once you would

have mentioned so much now there’s nothing you

know, except that uncertainty parades, pure and unmitigated, swirling at your feet.

Olive, a soft-coated wheaten terrier, sits on the teeter totter. She's a very cooperative pup when it comes to photo shoots, but I pay the price: the second she knows I'm done clicking Olive goes into full-on attack-the-photographer mode. Yelling, "SQUIRREL!" or "Here Kitty, Kitty" will usually put a stop to her attempts to tenderize any and all parts of my body.
