Description
Fine art scenic landscape photograph capturing the spectacular geomorphology of southern Utah's Strike Valley. This image was captured from a precarious perch atop the edge of the Waterpocket Fold on a very windy afternoon.
Eons of time have exposed multiple eras of colorful, fossiliferous sediments bearing extinct flora and fauna, both marine and terrestrial. Dark hulks of the Henry Mountains rising behind slate-gray buttes of Mancos shale, hills banded with purple and green bentonite, and salmon-pink petrified dunes play nicely against a deep blue sky laced with thunderheads.
