didn’t really try to make the arch so symmetrical…. original intent was asymmetry. then it all just kinda snapped into place…

Amazing work.
Remarkable
Gorgeous. The blended exposures is genius. You’re a very talented photographer as well as “rock wizard” (my term for your gift).
awesome! Respect! Love <3
Fantastic and expertly created photograph too.
Pure class =)
❤️
2 creatures one creation
LOve it, Michael! — you caught it and the magic of the location, lighting… you have a great EYE for creating the Divine and capturing it on film ! Onward and Upward !
Next time you host we must get together! This is spectacular Bob and Michael!
Beautiful rocks
You inspire me every post man
Nothing as amazing as yours, but since I first seen your work it’s gotten much much better. It’s my meditation thank you for inspiring all of us! (~);}
holy moly!
I think you topped yourself here. Brilliant.
Thank you.
Stunning! Do you do these large arches completely solo? Or do you have some help holding things in place? I’ve completed much smaller arches alone, but can’t imagine accomplishing something like this with no help.
Lotta! Visa pappa.
It is absolutely amazing!!!!! I see a creature coming out of the water, the big rock on the left looks like the face!!
Do you sell your pictures?
how long did it last?
wow Michael… !!!
You rule
Paul Flaherty
a different perspective . . . <3
Awesome & pretty!
You’re right about the different perspective you posted ; shows the creation as more incredible !
Where were you??
precise location is classified… but somewhere in the vicinity of mammoth lakes. . . :)
;-).
Are you still in Mammoth area?
How long will it last?
Kathy Clarke back in CO now
Sheri Smith Moreau i dismantled the following morning
Oh. You don’t leave them to the elements? Gifts to the earth?! :)
Sheri Smith Moreau some people get cranky, plus destroying them can be very satisfying, and also done in creative ways… which was the case for this one… recorded a reverse creation sequence that turned out kinda cool :)
Solo? Or not? Please? Or is that also classified?
Solo
Awesome! I’d LOVE to watch you do one of these… one day …. someplace incredible! But then, from MY perspective, EVERYplace has that potential.
This image moves me beyond words. What a gift & contribution of magnitude you are. Thank you ☆♡☆♡☆♡☆♡

Oh that is wicked! I love it.
My favorite part of this balance is how the bridge contours the reflection of the mountians in the background. Funny how things like that just seem to happen with balances. Almost as if nature had it planned way before the rocks were stacked. Bravo!
precisely!
Wow. Just…. Wow.
Amazingly Astounding!!!
Beautiful !!
How DO you create that…it’s incredibly awesome!
resembles a giant rock roller
Asian influence.
ha yes! the form reminds me of a style of rooftops i saw around Taiwan!
Amazing creature!
Izzy Lesniak

could be a dragon or a kind of water creature .It is spectacular anyway
Would like to see a video to try to understand how you manage to do something like that!? Truly amazing!
Sockeye Salmon…?….very cool
How the hell do you do this? So beautiful.
Wowwwww
Well done!!
Alanna Bonita Hill
Magnifique! Bravo l’artiste! :)
Pretty amazing Micheal. Beautiful.
love the curves of both the mountains and the rocks…nice touch!
Michael, I don’t know how you do this; I don’t know how you see this in your mind, but in my mind it is beautiful beyond words. Too often us humans see things as others want us to see it and not how it could be. You are a beautiful artist.
Remarkable.
lovely flow ,,,, & are you growing fins ….?
brilliant!
Looks like a dragon. Very beautiful.
That’s fantastic!
AWESOME!
I don’t understand how you do this but please keep doing it
impossible :-o
How many rocks did it take to build your bridge?
Amazing. I can’t imagine how you managed those stones that are vertical. Amazing.
Gorgeous
Amazing…..
Very cool! I see a face at both ends ^_^ what an unusually captivating creation <3 wonderful life you created~
I absolutely love your ‘labour of love’ :)

La contiguïté obligatoire de l’image avec le référent à l’instant de l’enregistrement photographique établie un lien entre la représentation et le réel représenté. Ce lien évoque la dialectique de la présence et de l’absence dont la trace photographique est celle qui dure en conservant l’oeuvre absente.
Who helped you?
Amazing!
Damn!
<3
Really incredible!
This is insane man!! :D
MaKenzie Huddleston
