Description
Standing fast on your feet? Here you can look down on this prostrate juniper berry (Juniperus communis ssp. nana) crawling the rocks. These acid rocks provide good grip and do not make you slip when they're wet (in contrast with wet slithery limestone).

whoo-hoo! now climbing up here this steep incline is something i can't wait to do!!!! i just don't know how we're gonna go up without equipment. don't tell me you did??? i love the heavy shadows here that make this place feel so mysterious. shadows look like cave entrances. POV is absolutely thrilling!!! most fascinating aspect of this shot to me is to see that flattened juniper on the upper left. notice the "trunk". from this view it looks the it was once a tree standing tall then someone just bulldozed over it, completely flattening it to the rock!! looks like a flattened Christmas tree! LOL! Fantastic capture, Jan-Carel!
