I was going to opt out of this weeks Sunday Stills, because I couldn't fit a road trip in to shoot some of the beautiful rock formations in our area. I love rocks, always have. They can have such unique textures, colors, shapes, and embedded (or lived) stories. I couldn't pass up the opportunity to shoot a sample of some of the many rocks in our gardens, and remember the beauty in the little simple things that easily become ordinary in our rushed lives.

My favorite rock.
Years ago my husband found it for me (disposable, from a construction site).
He carried it around in his work truck for weeks...
It is sizable and has a unique shape, a lot of texture, and varied color. |

Very nice shots, ands that is so cool about your hubby bringing you that rock
Who needs a road trip when you can find this in your own back yard? Well done!
Beautiful pictures. I am glad you didn't pass up the challenge. The green against the rocks is very nice.
the path is my favorite!
A great collection of rocks, I too love the rock path. I would love to see your garden, and your green thumb.
Many refreshing shots!
