sandstone texture

At Keg Knoll I am always up at dawn, ready for the magic that plays out as earth's rotation brings the sun into view. In the first several minutes, the light has a reddish hue, for sunlight is traveling through 40 times as much air as it does at noon, filtering the shorter wavelengths of visible light. Here, as the sun was rising, its wan red light picked out the intricate texture of sandstone.
