God's Artwork
Arches National Park, Utah
"Nature is the art of God.” - Sir Thomas Browne
When I first saw Delicate Arch in person, I was struck by two thoughts immediately: it’s a lot larger than the impression given in pictures; and that its formation goes against our normal mental image of how “erosion should work”. This free-standing sandstone arch should have eroded along with all the rest of the terrain around it from millions of years of wind and water processes.
But there it is, resisting snow and freezing temperatures, searing heat, wind and rain year after year. God’s artwork.
