Rick, thank you for sharing this unique “rock” image—very interesting that at one time there were two holes.

Great variety of beautiful rock images, Alan. Latourell Falls and the Oregon coast sea stack are my favorites—but the Beacon Rock is an impressive image as well. Thank you for sharing all of these.

Larry, beautiful examples you’ve shared—love the Red Rock Lake image, my favorite! The Red Rock Park and the Garden of the Gods are nice images as well. The Morro Rock in Morro Bay creates a stunning backdrop for the many sailboats—nice composition. Thanks again Larry for sharing all of these!I have hundreds of rock pix and here are a few of my favorites
