Banded Rock293 viewsI don't know how much marble was in Marble Canyon, but there was a lot of colorfully banded rock in the canyon walls. The Big Squeeze293 viewsAt times the high and steep canyon walls narrowed down to passages just a few feet wide. Farrabee Jeep287 viewsJoAnn drove, and Kelly and I were passengers on the way to Marble Canyon. Marble Canyon Flora286 viewsA bit of scrubby vegetation clung to a precarious existence in the dry bed of the canyon. Splotches286 viewsAlternating with the bands were these white splotches, as if someone had splattered white paint on the canyon walls. Disorientation284 viewsHard to tell which way is up in this setting. Upended Slabs281 viewsThe geological processes which formed the mountains in and around Death Valley caused many layers of rock to be dislodged and uptilted to crazy angles. Guardian of the Gate280 viewsJoAnn directs traffic in the narrow entrance to the next stretch of Marble Canyon. Tormented Rocks280 viewsHere the white striations are vertical rather than horizontal, and there is a large round "plug" in the rock in the center of the picture. Crazy, eh? Bad Day at Black Rock280 viewsHere you can see more of those circular or oval patches, or "plugs", in the rock. A puzzle for me. Light is the Left Hand of Darkness273 viewsI found the interplay between sunlight and shadow fascinating. 27 files on 3 page(s) 1 2 3 Debug Info  Debug Output: show / hide Select All USER: ------------------ Array ( [ID] => 185042b65001dea9bbc37437ab8d3283 [am] => 1 ) ========================== USER DATA: ------------------ Array ( [user_id] => 0 [user_name] => Guest [groups] => Array ( [0] => 3 ) [group_quota] => 0 [can_rate_pictures] => 1 [can_send_ecards] => 0 [can_post_comments] => 0 [can_upload_pictures] => 0 [can_create_albums] => 0 [pub_upl_need_approval] => 1 [priv_upl_need_approval] => 1 [access_level] => 3 [disk_max] => 0 [disk_min] => 0 [has_admin_access] => 0 [group_name] => Guests [can_create_public_albums] => 0 [can_see_all_albums] => 0 [group_id] => 3 [allowed_albums] => Array ( ) ) ========================== Queries: ------------------ Array ( [0] => SELECT name, value FROM cm_config [include/init.inc.php:177] (0.54 ms) [1] => SELECT * FROM cm_plugins ORDER BY priority [include/plugin_api.inc.php:48] (0.31 ms) [2] => SELECT session_id FROM `i5493328_cm1`.cm_sessions WHERE session_id = '1a2fbd909cc4e5d1e39c6766a582b515' [bridge/udb_base.inc.php:59] (1.12 ms) [3] => INSERT INTO `i5493328_cm1`.cm_sessions (session_id, time) VALUES ('1a2fbd909cc4e5d1e39c6766a582b515', 1760300933) [bridge/udb_base.inc.php:59] (0.44 ms) [4] => SELECT MAX(group_quota) AS disk_max, MIN(group_quota) AS disk_min, MAX(can_rate_pictures) AS can_rate_pictures, MAX(can_send_ecards) AS can_send_ecards, MAX(can_post_comments) AS can_post_comments, MAX(can_upload_pictures) AS can_upload_pictures, MAX(can_create_albums) AS can_create_albums, MAX(has_admin_access) AS has_admin_access, MAX(access_level) AS access_level, MIN(pub_upl_need_approval) AS pub_upl_need_approval, MIN( priv_upl_need_approval) AS priv_upl_need_approval FROM cm_usergroups WHERE group_id in (3) [bridge/udb_base.inc.php:350] (0.28 ms) [5] => SELECT group_name FROM cm_usergroups WHERE group_id= 3 [bridge/udb_base.inc.php:362] (0.3 ms) [6] => SELECT COUNT(*) FROM cm_categorymap WHERE group_id in (3) [bridge/udb_base.inc.php:375] (0.27 ms) [7] => SELECT aid FROM cm_albums WHERE moderator_group IN (3) [include/init.inc.php:271] (0.24 ms) [8] => SELECT lang_id FROM cm_languages WHERE enabled='YES' [include/init.inc.php:334] (0.25 ms) [9] => DELETE FROM cm_banned WHERE expiry < '2025-10-12 20:28:53' [include/init.inc.php:448] (0.87 ms) [10] => SELECT null FROM cm_banned WHERE ('216.73.216.211' LIKE ip_addr OR '' LIKE ip_addr ) AND brute_force=0 LIMIT 1 [include/init.inc.php:464] (0.75 ms) [11] => SELECT aid FROM cm_albums WHERE (1 AND visibility != 0 AND visibility != 10000 AND visibility NOT IN (3)) [include/functions.inc.php:1110] (0.22 ms) [12] => SELECT category, title, aid, keyword, description, alb_password_hint FROM cm_albums WHERE aid = 39 [thumbnails.php:136] (0.49 ms) [13] => SELECT p.cid, p.name FROM cm_categories AS c, cm_categories AS p WHERE c.lft BETWEEN p.lft AND p.rgt AND c.cid = 16 ORDER BY p.lft [include/functions.inc.php:2940] (0.23 ms) [14] => SELECT COUNT(*) FROM cm_pictures AS r INNER JOIN cm_albums AS a ON a.aid = r.aid WHERE (r.aid = 39) AND r.aid NOT IN (12, 51) AND approved = 'YES' AND hits > 0 [include/functions.inc.php:1717] (1.19 ms) [15] => SELECT r.pid, r.aid, filepath, filename, url_prefix, pwidth, pheight, filesize, ctime, r.title, r.keywords, r.votes, pic_rating, hits, caption, r.owner_id, user1, user2, user3, user4 FROM cm_pictures AS r INNER JOIN cm_albums AS a ON a.aid = r.aid WHERE (r.aid = 39) AND r.aid NOT IN (12, 51) AND approved = 'YES' AND hits > 0 ORDER BY hits DESC, pid ASC LIMIT 12 ,12 [include/functions.inc.php:1734] (1.74 ms) [16] => SELECT extension, mime, content, player FROM cm_filetypes [include/functions.inc.php:5952] (0.32 ms) ) ========================== GET : ------------------ Array ( [album] => topn [cat] => -39 [page] => 2 ) ========================== POST : ------------------ Array ( ) ========================== COOKIE : ------------------ Array ( [cpg16x_data] => YToyOntzOjI6IklEIjtzOjMyOiIxODUwNDJiNjUwMDFkZWE5YmJjMzc0MzdhYjhkMzI4MyI7czoyOiJhbSI7aToxO30= ) ==========================
