Description

I was going to choose "Horror" in the Genre category because I am deathly afraid of heights but went with good old Landscape. While I was studying the detail of Devils Tower through my zoom lens I was shocked to see people climbing it! Here are a few images to show you how massive the rock structure really is. If you would like to compare these photos to the full size image see my previous upload:

I have been in San Diego for a wedding and have not been online for a while (definite withdrawal symptoms here..) I wanted to upload before I left and offer a "Tally-ho and Toodles", as Harry would say, but just couldn't find the time. I hope to get caught up on the galleries soon! Blessings~ Jodie

What an awe-inspiring view; I don't understand the need to climb rocks, but I thank them for giving us a sense of scale! Amazing rocky structure, look at those vertical lines!

Goodness gracious, I never knew the tower was striated like that! It looks of artificial construction with those 2 by 2s all stacked up like that. Love the textures in this one. No wonder the ETs picked this place to make contact with the humans. And, I see you have acrophobia, just like me.

that is amazing.. I love hiking but sorry never got the point of hanging off the side of a mountain, I would rather be where you were viewing it from the bottom. I Hope you got some shots from San Diego its one of my favorite places..
