Bob has posted in the photo thread

Welcome Bob. That is an amazing photo. There is a rock formation like that at Fingal Head, on the nsw qld border. I think they called it devils boulders,

Somewhere I have a photo of my deceased brother, fly fishing on the almost inaccessible South fork of the Rogue River......taken through a water-worn hole in a boulder in the river.............but I have no idea where it is now. The climb back out of that gorge was memorable.

Thanks simone4010,

I actually found it on ebay... of all places!

The art work you can see above it, was from the same seller in Melbourne as well. It wasn't easy getting it shipped to Queensland. Infact, the rock came away from the timber so Andrew, my husband needed to repair it. It's a very heavy piece and the seller was looking for a pick up only but I needed delivery, so we were prepared for some possible damage.

Just like to point out - the tusks on the elephant are made out of timber.♥

My pic is a levitated mass(the rock is two stories high), put there by an artist 2 years ago. I was finally able to see it in person last week. The artist spent 40 years looking for the perfect rock. It is located next to the LA museum of art. It is a bit intimidating to walk under.

OMG... I don't walk under ladders so I doubt I'd be taking this bod under that rock!

Laney! A photo from you and what a ripper it is too. Where is that rock and is it a natural formation?

Dixo, I feel the same way about walking under tcm's rock but believe me, you wouldn't feel a thing LOL

j*oono - don't faint from shock!

It is a limestone wall above Bathers' Beach in Freo and the patterns just fascinated me. It is actually the lime mortar which is patterned between the limestone blocks and is the result of a natural process giving that liesegang-band weathering.

It is fascinating. Thanks Laney.

It looks like the Giant's causeway, Bob. It's a bit like the one on this page.
