The roots of this tree span across to the left.

Pictured Rocks was named for the coloured stains on the cliff faces produced by dripping groundwater containing iron and other minerals. The layers of primarily red and brown sandstone consist of Precambrian, Cambrian, and Ordovician bedrock carved into caves, arches, and fortresslike formations by the combined actions of waves and ice. The cliffs rise 50 to 200 feet (15 to 60 metres) above the shoreline. Most of the land is forested with mixed northern hardwoods, fir, spruce, jack pine, and hemlock; stands of white pine were logged to depletion in the early 1900s. Kettle lakes inland are the remains of melted glaciers. Wildlife includes white-tailed deer, black bears, snowshoe hares, grouse, and ducks and geese. This snapshot was taken in the spring of 2011.
I absolutely love this place.

Hello everyone! I saw this on some commercial on the web, did a screen grab, ran it through Elements and voilà! I DID NOT take this picture, but I wish I had. I get a laugh every time I look at this.

I'm still in school and I love it. Trying to get caught up with my Flickr friends and take a picture from time to time. How is every one doing??
