Gemstone writ large

[Ben Egbert]

This slab of rock is like a giant gemstone to me. Near the entrance to Capitol Reef scenic area drive.

I thought it looked familiar when I opened up this thread. I have driven by this rock face many times but I don't think I ever stopped to shoot it. I like the mood the clouds add to the scene.

The variety of textures, colors, and shapes is fabulous. Very well seen! There's a small bright area at the bottom edge that draws my eye out a little bit.

Thanks Alan, I have shot this formation most time I visit.

Thanks, I could easily fix that.

I love all of those bluffs in the Capitol Reef area. This one is no exception, great job Ben.

 

[Jameel Hyder]

Nice one Ben. I have captured images in that area a couple of times as well.

Beautiful image, Ben. This is so beautiful I have many images of it. It is called Castle Rock. It is not easy to get a really nice image like this.
