The Land of Standing Rocks

Posted by on Jul 14, 2008 in Desert, Landscapes | 18 comments

Rock sentinels watch the land in the Windows / Garden of Eden section of Arches National Park. The setting sun catches minerals in the rocks, making them glow red. Note: Any resemblance to male anatomy, either real or imagined, is entirely coincidental. These are just rocks, people. Just. Rocks.
