Photo Essay - Mangaraho Rock
















There is nothing remarkable here
only this incredible barrenness.

Men and trees have left their habitats
to a crude and lowly breed like brush,
but the sight of dark grey rocks like sages
spells home to me.

- Passages from The Ancient Rocks of Cherra

  2. Hello Ice. Well you and I both have a weakness for rocks. so I kept my promise to myself that I was going out to that big rock and photograph it. I like that poem. The rest of it isn't bad either but I liked the last two verses. Cosmic to the last.Went to Tokatoka too but I'll have to do some climbing...mutter. got more photos but I chose those ones for this post.
