A vast sheet of #VolcanicRock in the #Andes has preserved clues to a buried landscape that existed 22 million years ago, according to a new study led by Dr Byron Adams and Dr Frances Cooper (UCL Earth Sciences @es-ucl.bsky.social): www.ucl.ac.uk/news/2026/se...

#Limpets cling to ancient #VolcanicRock along the #OregonCoast at #LowTide. There wasn’t much color in the original shot, and going #monochrome enhanced the #texture . #RockinTuesday #TidesOutTuesday #ClassicMono #Macro #PNW #ECK #GoOutside #Breathe #Notice #KeepGoing
A monochrome shot of a collection of tiny, striped limpets gathered on rough, wave-hewn, dark gray basaltic rock, along with a few scattered barnacles. Not sure what kind of limpets they are, as I still need to run this through iNaturalist. They may not all be the same kind, either, but they look like it. The limpets are like irregular pyramids with their tips all on one side or the other with ridges going from the base to the top, and stripes doing the same thing, going from the base of the shell to the top of each shell.

"Break Against Stone"

#Rockin the coastline since the last ice age.

#RockinTuesday #ClassicMono #EastCoastKin #Photography #LandscapePhotography #Iceland #Basalt #VolcanicRock #OceanPhotography #Fujifilm
A monochrome photograph of a volcanic coastline in Iceland. Jagged basalt formations rise from a black pebble beach, their sharp, dark surfaces glistening with seawater. In the midground, a powerful wave crashes into a smaller outcrop, sending a plume of white spray into the overcast sky. Behind it, a tall, solitary stack looms, anchoring the composition. The water swirls between the rocks, streaked with foam, creating a stark contrast between the solidity of the stone and the motion of the sea.

This image shows the 16th-century sculpture of Xochipilli, the Aztec god of art, games, dance, flowers, and song. The artifact is currently housed in the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City. It was originally discovered on the slopes of the Iztaccihuatl volcano near Tlalmanalco. The figure is carved from andesite, a type of volcanic rock.

Luis Ortíz Monasterio (1906-1990)
Árbol de la vida y la muerte
(Tree of Life and Death)
1961-1962
carved volcanic rock

#luisortizmonasterio #mexico #sculpture #modernism #midcenturymexico #handmade #modernistsculpture #mexicansculpture #treeoflifeanddeath #volcanicrock #circa1961 #cdmx
Luis Ortiz Monasterio was born in Mexico City on August 23, 1906. Sculptor and teacher. He studied at the Escuela Nacional de Bellas Artes (1921–24) under Ignacio Asúnsolo. He visited California between 1924 and 1926, where he encountered contemporary trends. On returning to Mexico in 1931 he was appointed to teach ‘talla directa’, sculpting directly in stone, at the Escuela Nacional de Artes Plásticas, continuing until 1962. His creative ability and originality are best seen in his more personal creations. In the 1930s he produced sensual stone sculptures such as La Victoria, 1935; by 1943 he was incorporating colour into his designs. He produced a number of polychromed terracotta sculptures, including Maternidad. He also executed some important public monuments, including the fountain of Nezahualcoyotl (1956) in Chapultepec, Mexico City; the sculptures (1962) in the Unidad Habitacional Independencia, Mexico City; and a sculpture (1963) in the National Medical Centre, Mexico City, in which he dealt with historical themes. Ortiz Monasterio maintained a constant interest in using diverse materials and in pursuing new forms of expression; he expressed nationalist sentiments through his use of Pre-Columbian sources. In the 1960s he preferred polychromed concrete and bronze in his personal work and adopted an almost abstract geometric approach. He died in Mexico City on February 16, 1990.

I think my illustration of the Chalice of Xolaria from the epic sci-fi/fantasy series: Children of Gaia is finished.

A fantastical, otherworldly scene unfolds beneath a sky alive with color and motion. High above jagged twisting volcanic rock formations, a massive spire of dark, organic-looking stone twists upward, its surface riddled with deep hollows and textures like cooled magma. A narrow staircase spirals around the spire’s dizzying height, leading to the summit, where an immense statue of the Eternal Goddess Xolaria dominates the scene. She towers in gleaming, otherworldly armor, crowned with horns, her form both protective and terrifying, illuminated from behind by radiant light that spills outward like a divine aura. Before her stands a vast ceremonial basin, suggesting ritual purpose or cosmic offering. The night sky behind her is alive with a shimmering aurora that washes the heavens in greens, purples, and blues, like a celestial curtain in motion. Cutting across this aurora is the faint but unmistakable arc of a mysterious space ring, glowing as it stretches from horizon to horizon—an ancient and incomprehensible structure encircling the world. Closer to the viewer, a small flock of Rendaraian bats swoops through the sky. Their leathery wings are spread wide, and their long, prehensile tails curl and twist as they fly toward the foreground, lending a sense of eerie vitality to the surreal landscape. In the lower distance, smaller spires of volcanic rock rise through mist and shadow, framing the monumental climb up treacherous carved rock staircase that spirals around the spire to the chalice of the goddess. The overall impression is vast, reverent, and unsettling: a vision of divine presence, cosmic wonder, and alien grandeur within the Children of Gaia universe.

Mysterious cold periods in the past few millennia were probably triggered by #VolcanicEruptions.

This is what Alice Paine from @unibas.ch discovered together with an international research team. To reach this conclusion, they analysed #IceCores #VolcanicRock and #moraines.

Devils Tower, 2009

#DevilsTower #Wyoming #ClimbingTrip #BlackAndWhitePhotography #Photography
#Landscape #RoadTripUSA #VolcanicRock #AmericanWest #OutdoorLife #NaturePhotography #Mountains
Devils Tower, 2009. That summer was all about climbing. A 7-week road trip across the US, chasing granite and cracks, sleeping in campgrounds or wherever we could find space. Photography was more of a side project back then — I had my first DSLR with me, but most of the time I only took it out after the climbs were done. Or before. I had no real knowledge of technique or editing, but I was starting to pay attention — to light, to composition, to the moments that linger after the adrenaline fades. Climbing Devils Tower was a dream. The approach through the pine forest, the sudden view of this massive volcanic plug rising from the plains — and then the routes, classic and exposed, full of history and texture. We topped out and we were alone on the summit for a moment. This photo came later, during a quiet walk near the base, when the clouds were just right.
