    Nice! thumb.gif

    I wonder what caused the playa to erode in one spot like that. headscratch.gif

    Awesome image! Great conversion to B&W! clap.gif

    And +1 to KDog's wonderings on why Mother Nature picked that spot in particular!

    Thanks Joel, Chris.

    The only cause I can think of is some type of scouring by large amounts of water over an imperfection of some type. I know a geologist that lives a few miles from there (who told me I'd find some cool stuff at this location), that I'll be seeing next month. I be sure to ask and give the shot a good bump when I find out.

    Thanks everyone!

    -the jackalope... :) reminds me that last month I found a place called the 'subterranean rabbit room.' I mean, what on earth are subterranian rabbits, and why do they build rooms? Sounded like a playboy bunny lounge for the ~wildlife~

    er...

    Nicely seen. I especially love the cracks in the clay.
    All the best,
