STONES (and they're not ROLLING)
original spanish (Translated with www.DeepL.com)
That's a lot of stones, and I'm only going to talk about them, so if you're not interested in the subject, just ignore it.
I think they are the ugly duckling of ED and I don't understand why, they should have a profession equal to the one that exists for Exo-Biology, now I'm going to show you why I say so.
I´ve done many trips, and I have been capturing those stone images little by little during my voyages. Some of them I've probably already mentioned before, but I wanted to collect them all in one place. Many of them seem incredible to me. All of them have a story behind them that brings back memories just by looking at the capture of the moment..., I´ll leave that for another time.
I start the series with a unique little "pyramid" type stone that caught my attention.
I continue with a small series with a more normal series, of those that you dodge to the race and continue, but that have their little place in this series. Stones that I would define as "regular".
A type that I like a lot, and that I have even named it, the "pilgrim" or "sun worshippers" type, depending on your location, it is this one:
They are stones 4 to 8 metres high, vertical, slightly inclined and usually appear together in small groups,
or even forming real forests of them, quite a spectacle.
Another very recurrent type, which reminds me of a "cow's biowaste" (sorry), is the following one:
They look like a kind of "plaster" containing small stones embedded in them. They have a lot of detail, and appear in sandy type terrains, changing their texture according to the terrain.
Among all of them, my favourite is the following one. A laminated stone, which you can see that its creator has dedicated a special affection to it. Being such a "peculiar" stone, it is very easy to recognise it in the different planets. But that doesn't mean it loses its charm.
In the same category, although I have had less opportunity to see it, is this "pedestal" from which you can admire the surrounding terrain.
it is usually very tall, with a flattened top, it always allows for impressive captures.
The following is uncategorized because I've only encountered it once, but it has earned the nickname "little Titanic" for obvious reasons.
Jumping categories we can go to the "Colossi", cubic stones that reach the size of small mountains. The largest I have been able to find is the following, a monstrous monolith on a high-temperature planet where its shadow was welcome:
Real giants that don't leave you indifferent when you come across them.
Some planets show these same stones, but the texture applied to them requires a special mention, as "chance" has turned them into true works of art. Of all of them, there are two in particular that I'm going to highlight.
The rocks of the frozen lakes
Rock on a "wet" bark
I don't know if they are intentional, but I find these two amazing.
With "strange" dark textures, out of the ordinary, I have found few, very nice to see especially because of how difficult it is to come across them.
A bit of "random" stones, which I find just nice,
we have seen a bit of everything that can be found, although they always appear from different angles that make them seem "unique".
I want to close this rock tour, which I hope you liked, with a real rarity (caused by a bug, which makes it even more special as it is unique).
As you can see, not only plants can be found in the new forge, if you look for them you will find them, you just have to observe a little bit.
