One more from my Lapland adventures.

So I realised danger also lurks above you in the form of falling rocks

(spotted on a foggy day, West of Saltoluokta in Swedish Lapland)

I did not check if any car was underneath .. just could not lift that damn thing ...

 

[matt-l]

just a thought, how did the road crew move it?

definit blasting for that

 

[Overread]

TNT probably
Definatly would be a pain to get around in a car!

They never did move it, it just fell down from a mountain to the right and stayed there ever since.

They just built a new road to get around this problem zone.

Sweet!!!! Another great picture Alex!

 

[Antarctican]

Yoiks! That is one big rock! (And a lovely pic of it too!)

 

[Alex_B]

Thanks

It is a Northern Rock, they often fall.

Oh my god, what a bad pun ...

 

[Crazydad]

That is really cool!

I love the way you framed it so you can't see the mountain. My first thought was "where did that fall from?" had a picture in my mind of a huge rock just falling out of the sky.

Oh my. It's a beauty of a rock though and you captured it nicely.

The colors remind me that I will be camping in the mountains in a months time and hopefully the fall foliage will not dissappoint this year.

Only for the shortest of time, Arch. Actually, I doubt that whoever is underneath felt much at all. ale:
