Description

Another photo from Friday's rock-circle. I just couldn't resist this picture of such a small stone holding up something so much larger. As always, no tricks or glue, simply gravity and a bit of patience. This is part of what we're starting to think of as the "rockstack who could" because these typically only stay standing for a few hours or perhaps a few days. This one has been standing for almost 2 and a half weeks, now. Thanks for looking and commenting. Maybe this time I won't lose power thanks to somebody driving while talking on a cellphone so they can go off the road and take out a utility pole.. (nobody got hurt, but power was out for about 5 hours) Happy Sunday!

Amazing. This must have been a lot of work to set up. Going back to the essence of art, reshaping the environment by the first humans. Excellent piece.

Along with your excellent photo and intro text, I must add that this photograph is also nice in that we truely see the rocks mass and textures and the way you have fit them into "pockets" in each other, and thus getting the long lasting stand times! Impressive natural assembly sculpting and image capture too!!!
