Here is the closeup view of the layered Kanchipuram silk sari. This is a type of silk sari made in Kanchipuram. Tamilnadu. These silk saris are bridal or special ocassion wear for the women of South India.
Vermilion Cliffs National Monument is composed of resistant red sandstone beds, formed from deposited silt and desert dunes and cemented by infiltrated carbonates. The rocks are intensely colored by red iron oxide and other minerals, particularly bluish manganese.
This creates incredibly beautiful structures and hues. The most famous formation is The Wave in Coyote Buttes North. However, there are countless lesser-known spots with enough hoodos, arches, slot canyons, and brain rock formations to keep a photographer busy for a lifetime.
Paired with extremely dark skies, the area is a landscape astrophotography paradise, and since my first visit, in 2016, I have been waiting for my chance to return. In MayI plannec to spend one week in the area. Unfortunately, the weather didn't cooperate, but at least I got one partially clear night.
This image, showing amazing layers of reddish rocks in front of some white brainrock formations beneath a perfect Milky Way, is one of my favorite compositions from that night.

Yesterday, we snowshoed to a third waterfall in our area. We are lucky to have three of them within a half hour drive from our home. There is a trail that goes from below up to the falls and then on top of the falls. Although I can easily carry a camera on my back when hiking now, I still am not ready to bring along a tripod. So I steadied my camera on my camera bag while I sat in the snow. I used the timer so I wouldn’t shake the camera as much as I went for this slow shutter speed. It worked out not too bad! I was fascinated by the layers of ice forming under that torrent of water still coming over the cliff. The pillows of snow around the falls is much higher than I have ever seen at the falls. I would not trust stepping onto it with the sound of running water underneath. The waterfall usually has a more impressive height. We are outside so much this winter. The layers of clothing we have accumulated over the years have us prepared for most conditions. I believe today may be our first day we don’t need to shovel or blow snow.

Santiago's luck is paradoxical. The valley in which is placed does not allow pollution to leave the area. However, that same valley, gives the chance to constantly have amazing views to the Andes Mountains.
