Uploaded: October 20, 2004
I found some rocks and arranged them in a simple pattern. As the day wore on, they came to life.

I wish I had your eye for these bold, graphic images! I love the strong red as the background for the strong lighting casting those nice, dark shadows. The rocks provide wonderful repitition and pattern and are interesting individually with their own unique textures and slight color variations. Well done!!!! #858174Colette M.

Cool! Great shot. Very imaginative. But shouldn't it have been "Rocks on Red" or "Rocks and Red" since the rocks are not red, but the background is. I was expecting some red rocks #905248Dale Ann Cubbage November 12, 2004 0
Wow, Dan, at the end of this gigantic thread, let me say this is a great graphic image! Very strong! Congrats on your POTD, well deserved!da #905265
