Rocks and Trees

[Andune]

Ok, a new thread.
For your pics with rocks and trees. I am shure, Rich have a lot of them to show!
But at first on of my pics. This place is called the Teufelskanzel (Devils Pulpit). It is one of my favorit locations, unfortunaly a days ride from my home. But only a half hour by train!



And now post your pics!

Ok, I have another one.
This hill is called the oak hill, because of the oak forest at his top.
It is not far from the devils pulpit. But here by the light of the setting sun.

[Frank_Richards]

I have also liked pictures of solo trees with a bit of character, cedars and cypress trees in particular. This is a California oak in Sunol - SF East Bay Area

Andune, your invitations to post could get addictive!

Rocks are easy…

Black Butte is a lone basaltic remnant surrounded by red sedimentary rock.

Trees are harder. Many of my favorite spots are too high or too dry to have much in the way of trees…..

Does this count?

[Richard Ryer]

This early morning picture was preceded by a heavy evening rain. Mist and fog was boiling up every where as the temperature warmed. It was a good picture day.



Just an observation. We have many excellent contributions to these threads. And these threads have huge numbers of visitors. I know the visitors also have great pictures because there are so many of them out there. Is there a way to start off a thread with a bullet proof way to let others make their first post with a thumbnail? I bet many would like to post, but don't know how to put in the thumbnail and link and don't know to ask. I know it took me several days to figure it out before Owen showed me. Good job Bandit!

Cheers,

Rich

A Rocky Mountain, a tree on the cliff and some blue sky..

Check out in the original size of the image how the roots of the tree on the rock has grown down..

Wow, what a crazy tree! Amazing!

[NAGY Albert]

My trees and rocks in different forms:

This picture has a bit of "forest after volcanic ash rain" feeling.
Trees on a rock, and the water 1000 m below.
Looks like a megalith.

These trees died 170 years ago...
This log is probably not so old.
Rocks in the ocean.

I like this picture of some of the coastal rocks and trees up on the Oregon coast.



Cool the way the rock erodes.

Australia... a lot of rocks but only a few trees

[magic surf bus]

Mainly rocks: these formations are from the Sentier de Douarniers on the Cote de Granit Rose in Bretagne (Brittany), and they all have names - can you guess what they are? Click the image for the answer.

The area is a photographer's playground

..and here's some rocks with trees at World's End Gorge near Llangollen, Wales:

All from Greece, except the Blue Window from Malta. And a petrified tree, that is at the same time rock and tree!

If you want to see how to put a thumbnail in quote this or go here



I'm going to pretend tombstones count as rocks =p

[Dave Leaton]

kgram should win a prize for that one.

Here's a 900 year old tree at Dryburgh Abbey in southern Scotland.

[Richard Ryer]

I like both of these trees because the remind me of the Bonzai trees that gardeners in Japan shape with years of pruning and devotion. The first picture is on the shore of Emerald Lake and the sun had just come up. The second is just north of Mills Lake where the granite is still fairly naked after the last glacier retreated. It looks to be a tough old tree surviving harsh winter after harsh winter.

Hope you enjoy.

Cheers,

Rich

Thanks for advice - anyone can help on how to arrange thumpnails one next to another ?

[Richard Ryer]

To keep all the thumbs on one line, just put a "space" in between the line of code, not "enter". The more spaces, the bigger the distance between the thumbs on one line. Hope that helps.

Cheers,

Rich

Rich, you have also an amazing collection of rocks and rocky mountains!

For Eve, rocks are easy because she thinks more like a geologist.



For me, trees are easier because I think more like a forester. This is just about my only rock picture -

Then again, at the moment I don't exactly live in the land of rocks. Our rocks gather moss and plant life pretty quick -

And ends up not looking like rock any more!
