Oh I know, there is no way I could do that. It was very cool to see.

yes it was. I have really never seen anything like it. I guess the guy has been doing it for years and they are always different. Very cool.

So, they didn't pose for you? Cool either way. Art comes in many forms. Nice capture.

Great shot for you and good job for the man that arranged those rocks!

The guy was amazing! Since I took this picture I looked him up and saw more of his work. It is all different (same idea) and he stacks rocks that he finds. It was very cool to watch.

I'm sure it took a lot of patience for that guy to get those balanced just so.

I have to say, that it is completely and entirely awesome. It's such an interesting idea, and must have been a lot of work. great capture.

Yeah I thought so too. I wish I could take credit for it...I only took the picture, lol. I got there too late and didnt really see him making them. He was just taking his own pics and he was nice enough to let me in. Thanks for the comment too by the way.

Still super awesome. It truly baffles me how it works.
And he didn't do all the work, your composition and lighting are both very good.
