The Title is actually the name, not to be confused with the one in V.A. I believe it is. this is whats at the end of yesterdays post..."Reflective Approach" it was a rather muddy-ed up post but one I felt should go up first,in front of this one. The one here is the only reason...or "Main" reason I went to Hocking Hills. took me 3 yrs to get the timing planned. all from just a video i seen on YouTube of it....and it rained all but 1 of 5 days we were there lol. It still didnt stop me! to most it might not look like much, to me? if you have any idea of what i have been through in the last 3 yrs? huge mile stone...and dreams dont die, only you let them!

Im sure our good friend Nik knows how and why this is formed this way and its quite unique, the scope of it will be revealed in the days to come. why they call it the devils tub? havent a clue! it could easily be mine :) i have more pic to share in the days to come, as i get them done. The editing on these are not easy but no means in a gorge. using a technique of my own and a mixture of Trey Raticliff(very well known for his HDR)

Ironic I got it ready just in time for Halloween to post with a name like that.

Enjoy! i sure did.

Interestingly, there's a "Devils Bathtub" in Spearfish Creek, Spearfish Canyon, Black Hills, South Dakota (I'm guessing there are others around the country as well, a popular kind of name for a geologic feature--in order for me to photograph it, though, I would need to slip on some waders and walk about a mile upstream to reach it). I say geologic because it's the geology here that probably allowed this to form. Some rock is hard, some is relatively soft, and when a steady stream of water rushes over sediment of any kind, erosion will do fanny things and create wild forms in the land. My best guess is that's what has happened here. The Caedes site allows only one level of enlargement, so I suggest people do what I plan to do; pull a copy and open it in Photoshop so I can really get my eye around that hole nature created. Another gorgeous capture, Chris. You keep this up and there's going to be as many of your shots in my desktop wallpapers folder as Sandi's... and mine.

Hmmmmm... okay, I did look closer in Photoshop and I'm sure this stream has been running here since the last ice age, about 12,000 years ago, just like over here in ND, and that's plenty time to create this deep a hole, even in hard rock. Very cool. Now on my "must visit" list.

its said to be of lime stone and sand stone in the area, both very weak for erosion. its the angle that water flows in at that makes this twist i believe forming a bit of an eddy that just spins around in a circle and out the other side. i'll be posting one of good clarity to see down the stream in the other direction, into what seems like a cave on the back side...the only way to tell is get wet..like you said, i think the DRN might have an issue with me heading in the direction when you see tomorrows post with the hole in the back side, i believe its just more of the circle. i found some cool little ones in a stream miles from here in the park. it look like they were drilled im sure the same type of thing before flooding over just left a cool hole to see beneath the waters surface.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

You're really taking your processing to a news level. I totally love it and am somewhat envious.

Outstanding capture and angle showing us the depth of the gorge - really like the bridge and curving path - even with your post work the ground does really look damp. Right into my favs
