"OLD GLORY" and Friends .............
I captured "OLD GLORY" and some Friends several months ago and I thought this would be the perfect day to cast it's glory with a couple friends near by.
This post is for all the people that have fought for the (Freedom) of the United Sates of America and preserving the beauty of our wonderful country
Next to "OLD GLORY" stands The Mammoth Lakes area flag on the (left) and on the (right) is The State of California flag.
These three different flags represent three different very beautiful places in America.
The photo (below) is Vegas Bob on the top of Mammoth Mountain and try to imagine if the open beauty you see behind him was built up because another country had taken over and developed it with a city or industrial plant.
Let's try not to forget how "Lucky" we are to live in a country like the USA!

Beautiful Rainbow Falls ........
When I was a teenager we use to hike through the mountains of Oregon and northern California and I have always been amazed by waterfalls.
The water falling over the rocks to create a white, blue, green color and the noise of the water can be so relaxing and hypnotic. And sometimes if you hike down by the bottom of a waterfall there is a mist, rainbow and the odor of fresh water.
I have photographed 100s of waterfalls through my life and most of my photographs are all gone, lost, misplaced, etc.
My goal next year will be to photograph more waterfalls like the one in the photo (above).
This photograph was taken in Mammoth Lakes California and it is quite a site to see, later in the afternoons the sun will shine through the mist of this waterfall creating a beautiful Rainbow.
We hiked down to early in the morning so we missed the rainbow at this waterfall called "Rainbow Falls"

Please read and take a look at this post about some very old strange rocks in Mammoth Lakes area.
Can anyone please tell me what this person is sitting on and where these rocks might be located?
I would like to congratulate James Malanowski for guessing the right answer to my question about he strange rocks and here is another photograph (above).
The photograph of the six sided rocks are at the top of this cliff.
The name of the strange rocks are Devil's Postpile in Mammoth Lakes California

Devil's Postpile ... Someplace I actually have been. Granted it's been awhile, though. |

These rocks are some of the strangest rock formations I have ever seen and when I came across them I had to really take a close look at them. These rock formations are millions of years old and it looks like this person in the photographs is either meditating or trying to capture the energy from them.
The first photograph is towards the bottom of the rocks and the photo below is the very tops of the rocks. What are these strange rocks?
And where do you think there located?
I will reveal the answer later Wed. evening 10-28-2009
If you look real close at the photograph above most of the rock patches have 5 sides to them and this is all natural, the lines were not cut into the rocks.
