The mysterious nature.
As a little boy I observe the rocks and my age changes of dimension

Really has that " Alien" look to it, Sam. The B&W is perfect for this. V

Fascinating patterns. It looks great in b&w Sam. Cool to see it in context as well. "V"

Great depth and tonal range, Sam. The B & W treatment emphasized the abstract forms. V

An artist couldn't have made it as interesting.

A three dimensional abstract with a nice design. I like it! V

attractive pattern, like a mini cave system carved out by erosion..it seems a variation on the 'sandstone lace' seen in coastal sandstone..

These a facinating rock formations, Sam. The lower one looks like a petrified whale rising out of a petrified ocean. Outstanding! \/
