Some folks mentioned they thought they saw writing scratched into some of the canyon walls in my recent series from Mathessin State Park. [Someone else thought they saw a face, but he sometimes also hears voices.] Yes, lots of scratchings. Most seem to be fairly old, maybe even from before they reversed the direction of the river. Moss covered. Scratching on top of scratchings. This shot is actually from last year at nearby Starved Rock. One of these days maybe I'll re-scan the negatives and try some heavy-duty contrast enhancement.
