    With a sea of rock everywhere Rany, it can’t be easy to compose a shot in an area like this – you’ve done a wonderful frame here – love the depth :)

    Thanks to Everyone for commenting.

    Yes, Mel, there is a lot of variety in this little park, and I only covered two parts of it in about a 5 mile area. I will do more next time.

    Actually, Louise, I think i was standing on a flat, sandy hiking trail. These rock formations are the tops of an ancient mountain range that jut up out of the desert sand like islands. Most of the surrounding area is flat sand or gentle hills. I will look through my archives for some of the interesting rock shapes.

    Thanks again, Everyone, Rany

    Rany, you’ve a knack for creating the perfect 1950s postcard feel! Excellent composition, and just the right amount of saturation. Is this in the Indian Cove area? I go back to JTNP all of the time; it really is a terrificly photogenic locale. Excellent work! Cheers! Chris
