Since I’ve posted on this scene previously – along with a landscape mode presentation of a similar scene – I’ll keep this one short. This photograph was made in the slightly post-sunset light on an evening when the light was softened by clouds. A smattering of trees grows in the few areas among the cliffs and hoodoos where there is apparently enough of the right kind of soil – most of this terrain is devoid of large plants.
