Description
Fine art scenic landscape photograph capturing a slice of southern Utah’s spectacular geology. From a vantage atop the edge of the Waterpocket Fold in Capitol Reef National Park, Strike Valley bisects multiple eras of exposed, fossiliferous sediments bearing a rich array of extinct flora and fauna, both marine and terrestrial. The dark hulks of the Henry Mountains provide contrast to crenellated battlements of blue Mancos shale, banded hills of purple bentonite and salmon-pink petrified dunes. Far below, Sandy Creek winds through the desert badlands, providing just enough water to sustain yellow cottonwoods. Fine art prints available for sale. ©Kathleen Bishop 2014.
