The complex interaction between physical and chemical weathering.

Thank you kindly Suzanne!

She sure is

Thanks so much Armand!

Thanks!

Definitely excited when I found it!

Wanted to do some more exploring during low tide at unfamiliar coastlines and stumbled across some beautiful conglomerate fossils.

Thanks for looking!

Nope, it’s a photograph :)

Exactly, that’s why I enjoy fooling around with perspective when photographing tafoni

Thanks! It was originally right side up.

Thanks so much Armand!

Appreciate that!

An busy section of coastal tafoni shot during a stormy day. I felt that rotating the image had more of a visual impact.

Breath the Alps… captured at the Mt Pelvoux, France

Thank you kindly. I was immediately drawn to this rock and the tide happened to be just at the right height. In other words…mostly luck :)

Congrats Christoph!

Thanks a bunch Christoph! Just a matter of luck for this one

Thanks Armand 🙏

Some light breaking through in Yosemite Valley

What drama! These are beautiful

Thank you kindly Rumyana

Thank you!

The irony is that I typically approach photography as if I’m shooting film. I have to admit though, that I enjoy the digital benefits with scenes like this. Thank you Jonathan

Thanks! Patience is a key factor.
