Description
Heh, I couldn't resist tipping my hat to one of my favorite singers...
I was waiting for the grill to heat up (Chicken with a Garlic and Peanut marinade, YUMMY!) and found myself gravitating (Sorry, another bad pun) towards my collection of rocks. Otherwise known as: My Playground. Yes, believe it or not, this is how I relax.
As usual, no photoshop tricks, no glue, no strings, just gravity and friction and careful placement.
Thanks for taking a look, and hope you're all having a good weekend!

bonne photo!!
Great fun! There is a flat rock just off the side of the road on my way to work that has about a dozen of these balancing scultures.
Oooooo - garlic and peanut marinade? I'm gonna have to try that one - sounds delicious! You certainly seem to have become the Jedi Master of balancing things! I like the way things are stacking up (sorry, couldn't resist). Really a rock-solid photo (ouch, another one) you have here. If I would have tried this, I probably would have ended up with a broken toe from the fourth rock up falling on my foot. Too cool!
This is great. Another friend told me about your hobby and here I am treated to a perfect example. Well done and MOST unusual:)
you the best at this. there no rocks here to do this type of art
YOUR THE MAN ;-)
This really rocks, Mike.It's amazing that they all stay together!A lof of heavy lifting was obviously put into this sculpture.
HeHe! Love these rock towers!
Fantastic, Michael..I like when you do this type of art! Stunning :)
Some one went around the island and put these balance rocks all over. Really cool.. Nice work. Aloha
Excellent!!!
More of us ought to take up this kind of relaxation.
Amazes me that the largest rock is seldom on the bottom of one of your stacks. =) skill, I tells ya, skill!
Rocks that knock my socks off! Marvelous.
This does take quite a bit of skill. I'm always amazed at these and have yet to try any on my own, but oh well! You have one of the perfect ways to relax. Gravity and friction: there's a lot to be said for that! NASA is thinking of new ways to employ gravity in space exploration, and it's high time they did so, since the soon-to-be-retured Space Shuttle fleet is largely useless in terms of actually going anywhere! But that's a long and senseless ramble. This is a great shot!
thats amazing!!
