The Picture of Dorian Gray
tic tac toe. highly transient. luckily got a few long exposures after nearly 2 hours of creation.
in other news:
another person seems to have become victim to the raging creek. levels are quite dangerous at the moment.. underpasses flooded, swift current. very few available rock spots.
i was right next to 6th street bridge yesterday and was suddenly joined by sirens and water rescue crews. fire department. bystanders… a couple police too! no problem this time tho! also some funny locals joking with me about “moving the rocks” followed by “beautiful work!” :))
i really love this base rock. and the curve in the top.. difficult to balance on this subtle point.. hanging at the limit of friction. pretty much requires some level of tic tac toe or continuous counterbalance to line up for this particular balance point. working with extreme angles and precision is both pleasantly challenging, and quite nice to look at post-zero.

No. no no…..that’s gotta be photo shopped….that’s impossible

I love your art. I look at them and it just makes me feel so at peace. Beautiful.
Pulled a little girl out and did cpr there last year.
Those concrete spillways need to go away!
So is this considered physics ?
Don’t anyone sneeze…
Yet again setting the bar !
Love this. Fabulous!
a great book/
smooth
Nice! I like the bottom rock, it’s different.
Beautiful
Amazing!!!
You are so talented!
So beautiful!
this is done with mirrors, right ?
I watched the Boulder dive team race by today….. That river is no game.
Absolutely Gorgeous!!! ^_^ (y)
Breathtaking…
Amazing balance. We were going to tube down clear creek in Golden on Friday, and they are not allowing tubers on the creek until the water levels drop some. I guess it’s for the best. It’ll still be there to tube down in a few weeks. Careful in those waters.
thanks! ya nothing to play around with… but i also like the problem solving involved. where to balance next.. is my daily sudoku :))
I’m going to Castlewood Canyon tomorrow. It’s a pretty amazing place. This will be my third time there, and the waters have never been high. It’s no Great Wall but it’s pretty beautiful. You have balanced rocks in some amazing places… You must be a champ of this daily sudoku.
I almost drowned last year because I went tubing in clear creek with the water too high. It was a scary lesson learned.
I will surely save the tubing for August. Glad you didn’t drown. We were driving by Clear Creek today and about 5 miles west of Golden, there was a group of fire trucks, ambulances, and police pulled over by the river with lights flashing. Hope someone didn’t get swept away today. It is not a lesson you want to learn the hard way.
Gorgeous! Be careful out there ;)
I think I love you…how can you be still for that amount of time!!!!
Gorgeous! The trecherous looking swiftness of the water captured in the time lapse and that ominous shadow in the background against your calming stack, I’d say makes for the “perfect balance. ”
..sad to hear about the victim though. Be safe out there peoples!
What’s name of the glue and where can you buyit
It’s called gravity and it’s free!
Just beautiful!!
:)
Mesmerizing, calming, and exhilarating, all at the same time.
WoW
would die to see this firsthand, to experience what seems impossible to me…wish you needed an assistant! hehe
I use only two words “Impossible Mission”
Brilliant!
Your work is amazing!
Thanks I needed this today
I enjoy seeing your work along the Boulder Creek. Keep it up.

How did you ever get that big rock on top to balance at that angle on the smaller one under it? You’re amazing!!!
you are truly amazing
This is such an amazing gift!
‘hold on’ please :)

This is beautiful art.. Michael Grab is fantastic!
Неймовірно гарно. Композиція знаходиться на межі реальності й фантастики.
Also Wilde- “it is through art, and through art only, that we can recognize our perfection.”
:D
And my daughter!
Awesome!
Nothing compared to yours but you have inspired me!
Gorgeous!
