I came across photos of this unusual rock formation. It's from of tubes(some are even six-sided) and it's really strange. This formation is located in Russia, on Kunashir island. Found here

So What? It's just basalt, a very common type of lava rock. Basalt sometimes cools in hexagonal columns, as it did here. The oceanic crust is made up of this rocky type. It's not unusual at all

I totally understand where this guy is coming from, these are incredibly familiar formations, that's not to say they aren't incredible, it's just weird to me for them to be passed off as some sort of only off the coast of russia anomaly

The hexagonal basalt columns may not be unusual to you. However, your smug attitude deserves a smackin.

I'm a Geologist. The jack-ass who said that this is just boring basalt is correct that it is columnar basalt formations and that it isn't uncommon. What makes that person a real jack-ass is their crummy attitude. It is a bitchin' bunch of rocks. Thanks for putting up the neat pictures

I share your feeling that just because columnar basalt is common doesn't mean that it is boring. There are some beautiful outcrops on Mt. Rainier and just thinking about their formation process makes me smile. Does the fact that we understand rainbows make them any less beautiful??

Great pictures! These are like formations at Fingal's Cave on the Isle of Staffa, off the Scottish mainland. There are similar formations on the Irish Coast called "The Giant's Causeway", big tourist attraction

Similar formations can be found in the Columbia Gorge, Oregon; most of them are located around Latourelle Falls. Neat pics

Hey, great photos. Reminds me of some rock pillars I saw hiking cape scott. All you could see through the fog was a 30 foot rock pillar with a huge tree growing on top. Keep em comin

Just try the following link to answer you questions about this type of display. (without the bs)
The photography is superb, and the subject fascinating. It's like a set of images of a beautiful woman. Yes, there are other women, and many are very interesting, but the combination of beauty and photographic skills can be extraordinary

I don't know about waves, but I do know the water there is very cold and surfing there wouldn't be the best idea :)

i have seen similar vertical jointing in Oregon,& thought it was very unusual at first too..it blew my mind the first time I saw rock showing these patterns in the area of Oregon with the highest waterfall concentration in the U.S. I have lived other places, even in Europe,but never saw any such thing;now that I have seen it many times,& studied how it happens(from cooling of rock)I still think it is really interesting, and aesthetically intriguing.i always like to know other people appreciate these things.i enjoyed looking at your pictures.thanks for sharing them!
