This challenge is open to users of all skill levels, and is for all those photos you have of rocks. Qualified photos can be of anything from the smallest pebble, to the largest boulder - and anything in between... but we do ask that you refrain from submitting pictures of mountains since those had stopped being rocks a long time ago ;-p
