Featured in “The Wild West Show” – June 2009. Rhyolite, Nevada is a ghost town just outside the boundary of Death Valley National Park. It was a town built on gold and the hopes and dreams that the precious metal inspires. Founded in 1904 and abandoned only 15 years later in 1919, it was a very short-lived community.

Wikipedia: “The Devils Marbles Conservation Reserve contains formations of naturally rounded and oval boulders called Karlu Karlu by the local Aborigines. The area is located near Wauchope, 114km south of Tennant Creek in Australia’s Northern Territory … the boulders are suffering from solarisation. Because the temperature differences between day and night are so great, the rocks expand and shrink a little bit every 24 hours. This causes some rocks to crack, sometimes even splitting them in half.” [Wikipedia entry] / Copyright © 2007 Brian W. Schaller – All rights reserved.

Featured in “National Parks of the World” – June 2009. Featured in “Rocks and Stones” – November 2009. Here in one of the hottest places on earth, large rocks appear to race one another around a dry lake bed leaving long trails behind them and small piles of dried mud in front of them. No one has seen them move but the evidence shows that they do…somehow. The practical theory is that the combination of seasonal heavy rains and very high speed winds can push these rocks, sometimes weighing as much as the average person, across the slippery muddy surface of the usually dry lake. On cold winter nights, sheets of ice probably also contribute to the movement of these “sailing stones.” [Wikipedia entry – Racetrack Playa] [U.S. National Park Service website] / Copyright © 2004 Brian W.

Hungry Alaskan brown bears congregate at the Brooks Falls in Katmai National Park during the salmon season. As salmon by the thousands swim upstream and jump the falls, the bears jockey for the best position to catch the flying fish in order to fatten themselves for the long Alaskan winter. The best of the fishing bears simply skin the fish to eat all the subcutaneous fat, then drop the fish into the river where younger bears and gulls feast on the remains.

Featured in “Hawai’i ~ Aloha Na’au” – June 2009. Imagine… very early morning at the “end of the road” in the northeastern section of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Before sunrise there are several lines of bright orange/red flowing down the side of the Kilauea volcano. After sunrise the lines become very faint but wisps of smoke curl up in the distance, seemingly only a few miles away. Hiking out takes longer than expected, following the old, cooled and very uneven lava flows toward the smoke. Eventually you come upon the scene of an active lava flow passing bushes and a solitary tree by the town that had been wiped out by flows some years before. The heat is intense and is increased substantially by the numerous small fires that break out and then dissipate. The lava advances very slowly until it begins covering even more of the road surface of the abandoned town, along its relentless path to the sea.

Light trails of the standby LED of my computer monitor’s on/off switch in the “On” state (green). The international symbol for an on/off switch (a broken circle with a vertical bar through the break) can be seen twice. A five second exposure at macro focus distance and aperture of f/8 with smooth slow camera movement by hand produced the swirling light trails. / Copyright © 2008 Brian W.

Featured in the Homepage “Wall Art” section – 2008. Light trails of the standby LED of my computer monitor’s on/off switch in the “Off” state (orange). The international symbol for an on/off switch (a broken circle with a vertical bar through the break) can be seen in bright outline. A five second exposure at macro focus distance and aperture of f/8 with smooth slow camera movement by hand produced the swirling light trails. Copyright © 2008 Brian W.

A stand of trees stripped bare by the volcanic blast of 1980. Photo was taken in the summer of 2002. The top half of the image is original except for the monochrome treatment. The bottom half is a mirage, or reflection, of the top half. In reality, all the trees shown here are standing on a hillside with saplings growing between them.

A reflection in the pool of water at the end of Cathedral Gorge in Purnululu National Park, Western Australia. The reflection shows part of the steep orange-colored rock walls leading into the gorge. The ripples were the result of tossing a small stone into the water. [Wikipedia entry] / Copyright © 2007 Brian W. Schaller – All rights reserved.

Featured in “AMERICA’s National Parks and WILDLIFE Habitat” – June 2009. A very narrow slot canyon appropriately named Spooky Gulch twists and turns for several hundred meters through a dry desert landscape. Its walls tower many meters overhead while the opening in front of you seems to get smaller and smaller. Those hikers that are both brave and thin enough to fit through will find that they are able to make it to the opposite side. At its narrowest point, the little canyon is only about 30 centimeters wide! [Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument website] [Spooky Gulch info and photos] / Copyright © 2004 Brian W.

The Fiery Furnace area is only accessible during a ranger-led hike or after obtaining a special permit. This old juniper tree – which appears to be guarding itself against a leaning sandstone wall – was photographed during a self-guided exploration (with permit) of the area after having taken a ranger-led tour on a previous visit.

Featured in “AMERICA’s National Parks and WILDLIFE Habitat” – June 2009. Featured in “Utah Landscapes” – July 2009. A reflection in the pool of water at the base of Neon Canyon’s Golden Cathedral. This angle shows only a small part of the sandstone wall surrounding this large alcove in the Utah desert. The green areas are plant matter growing on the vertical rock wall. Changes to original photo include: moderately increased red and green, greatly reduced blue, slightly increased saturation and reduced brightness. Normally this is a reddish brown sandstone which can appear “golden” but probably not in quite this shade!
