Description
Down the road from Shoshone Falls was a parking lot that gave access to a lake. This was far more interesting than seeing the lake! Water carved this stone, swirling and grinding bit by bit. I thought it looked like a wide-canopied tree. Later I saw a sort of long-nosed critter of dubious pedigree. What do you see?

Amazing what nature can do. The first thing I thought was that it looked like a tree. the rocks surrounding it look like rusted metal that the tree is trying to escape. Excellent capture!
A marvel of natural engineering. I see both, but also some hollering faces.
Yes I can see the critter. The wonders of nature!
Splendid colors and textures for this peculiarity of nature! As always your camera is always there where it is necessary! Bravo Tara!
The tree is evident, and I can see a number of faces in there, one being at the base of the tree trunk where a single line details the brow with a nose and mouth in an abstract manner, just above the tufts of grass. Anyone catch the tortoise or turtle head with it's mouth open on the right?. Nature can be very creative and so can you in capturing this so well.
Superb capture Tara. God bless.
That is one big dog's head. Nice shot Tara.
Nature is the first artist and trumps are efforts each and every time.
Very interesting.
Nice find and very well captured.
I see people shouting out for freedom! I also see hiding places of the fae.
Outstanding capture of mother natures handiwork!! Wonderful colors and textures!!
Oh, very cool! I love the shapes of this!
Excellent capture and extraordinary formation.
Awesome I love things like this believe it or not LOL Great pic and find Hugs Susan
I see your dog with the cow eye looking up at top right. Whilst lower centre, there is a miniature mount Rushmore face :)
This really amazing. Nature is an artist.
Very cool image. If we take away the reference points this could very well be a gigantic rock formation large enough for people to live in. Think Mesa Verde, Colorado.
I definitely see the long nosed character, Tara! This is a beautiful shot – mother nature, the ultimate 3-D artist!
Wow, this is definitely more interesting! I see so much in there!
A fossilised alien-looking tree, would make this so much more interesting, and never found anywhere else - but here, you did well Tara, to immortalise it for us laymen and let's not tell anyone about this find at all - big secret ... ;P BB
The nature brings out the best structures. Fascinating entity with fossil charm!
Great texture and capture
I'm really not sure but its quite amazing what water does isn't it? Great shot.. Rob
I see lots of faces including Oscar the Grouch below and to the left of the tree and a smiling crocodile in the bottom right corner. I see Oblio's pointed cap, a yin-yang symbol without the dots, a mitten, and definitely the tree. What a great sculptor water is. Beautiful and fun shot!
