plonqAs promised, here are some more pictures from our trip to the Petroforms.
My sunburn hurts a bit more today than it did last night. I can definitely tell that I got too much sun.
This is typical of the scenery around the forms. It is both remote, and pretty in spite of the drought-like conditions here for the past few weeks.
The picture does not do this proper justice. When you see this one in person, it is quite obviously a fish.
The cloth offerings hung on the trees through out the area are a tell-tale sign that you are walking on sacred ground.
This one looks to me like a serpent. If it has some deeper spiritual meaning then it is lost on me. Only its creator knew for sure, and he/she has long since turned to dust.
Why spend good money on professional landscaping when nature does such a marvellous job on its own? The colour and detail did not quite come through on this picture, but many of the moss patches looked to be meticulously sculpted.
Is this a turtle or a directional marker? Something else altogether perhaps?
This is a slightly more modern work of art. The rust trails from the remains of a long-removed metal rail have left a ghostly spectre on the rocks.
