River Sculpture

Nice photograph,real rich golden tones,beatuful scintillations in water. What a cool thing to do,balance rocks in streams,then walk a way and let nature take over.

I love this, both the picture and the act...

Nice photo! There are some mighty elaborate rock sculptures that spring up miraculously somehow along the Big Sur coast of California. Some of them taller than me (I'm 6 feet tall) and composed of some hundreds of stones starting with boulders on the bottom courses and smaller as it goes up. Some of those boulders would take two or more hefty men, I am certain. I used to go every weekend up and down Big Sur coast and stumbled across them from time to time and wondered how they showed up since they were in the most unusual places. Then one time I came upon some hippies who were somewhat obviously stoned, fully engaged in the process of composing a stone sculpture, and it occured to me.. ahhhhhhh, stoner hippies arranging stones because they were stoned and had nothing better to do!

you really made that Weston diploma parchment sing! beautiful image ....

Beautiful tones. The process really fits the image. Great work.

Thanks for all the nice comments. Hopefully some more prints in the next few days. Some of these sculptures are magnificent and involve some very heavy stones.
