I could not identify the logo on this car. Maybe a car expert can let me know. Textured and Layered - artistic, Impressionistic. Thanx to Jim Frazier for letting us know that it's a Buick.

My 5 letters word is block.

I love shooting building blocks.

I had so many options for this but this is where I landed.

A beaut of a butte, east of Lake Powell, on the far side of Antelope Island, which lies low in the foreground, shadowed just before sunset. Note the layering on the butte and the cliffs behind, indicating sandstones and shales laid down by sedimentary processes—completely different from the massive intrusive granite blocks in Monument Valley, which are remnants of volcanic activity.

The map location may not be accurate.

I pushed the sliders a bit and settled on this framed image.

Has this ever happened to you? I was all set to catch a nice view of the "City of Derailment" passenger train, pulling into Salt Lake City on the double track main. Unbeknownst to me, a ZLBDV intermodal was also on the approach, about about 10 cars ahead of the passenger train, blocking the view.
