Pity the Inselberg

A common landform in deserts is the inselberg, a remnant rock standing alone after all around it has eroded away. You pronounce it like a German would, "INN-sel-BAIRG," which means that you can never make it rhyme in a poem (except in German). But that's only a slight detraction from its coolness. See the inselberg with other erosional landforms in my latest picture gallery.
