Thursday Postcard Hunt - Geologic Details
Thursday Postcard Hunt has us hunting for Geologic Details this week.
Detail of Pahoehoe lava at Craters of the Moon National Monument, Idaho.
People walking inside an earthquake fault in Mammoth Lakes, CA.
Next week? It's Faces, with the Detail theme.
wow...both are stunning images, the first one is extraordinary!
ReplyDeleteIt made a good "geologic detail" I think! When I was a girl my mother always wanted to visit the Craters of the Moon, and while we did go on a family vacation, I have no memories of it! I have some small lava tubes in my herb garden. I'm not sure where my brother got them, but he used to go arrowhead hunting out in the desert somewhere, so maybe there.
DeleteI've heard of Craters of the Moon, but this was not what I expected. They look almost like gnarled and fused tree trunks.
ReplyDeleteThat first one is creepy. That fault is very deep. (I saw something somewhere where the guy was explaining where a fault was. He was standing in a parking lot. The fault was through the parking lot.)
ReplyDeleteThe lava has an extraterrestrial look, I can see how it got its name. Hope its not going to come alive:)
ReplyDeleteIt does look like some alien worm creature in an old Star Trek! It would be huge, and they'd be walking on it.
DeleteLava formations are fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThey are. In Lassen there is Subway Cave, a huge lava tube you can walk through. It curves, and you NEED a flashlight!
