My favorite tree showed itself in white splendor this morning. Finally a current January photo again.
Sunset through a crooked pine tree on the south rim of the Grand Canyon in Arizona.
The tree is of the pinyon or piñon pine group (Pinus species, Pinaceae, probably P. edulis, or a hybrid of P. monophylla with P. edulis or P. quadrifolia).

For my Tennessee friends, these were your mountains around noon today....I braved the elements, without a coat to ride to the TN state line to capture this before the roads got slick.

Le Colorado provençal à Rustrel est probablement l'un des plus beaux sites touristiques du Luberon en Provence.
Il s'étend sur plus de 30 hectares. Ses sentiers en terre permettent de découvrir des falaises érodées comprenant plus de 20 teintes d'ocre. Le « cirque de Barriès », le « cirque de Bouvène », les bassins de décantation, les cheminées de fée, le « Sahara », les tunnels, le lit de la Dôa (la petite rivière locale) offrent des décors variés aux randonneurs. Le chemin de grande randonnée GR 6 traverse le site.

The most spectacular of ochre sites is nicknamed “the Colorado Provençal”. The unexpected Colorado of Rustrel ranks among Provence’s most beautiful attractions. Situated on one of the largest ochre quarries in the world, the Colorado of Rustrel was, at one time, one of the best known producers of ochre in France. Today, the hues and the strange looking shapes of the outcrops, shaped by centuries of exposure to the elements, are simply breathtaking.

Eine Welt in Ocker..Ein prächtiger, farbenfroher Rundwanderweg führt durch die Ockerbrüche bei Rustrel im regionalen Naturpark Luberon.Der Naturpark Luberon in der südfranzösischen Region Provence hat gleich zwei Ockersteinbrüche zu bieten: die Brüche von Roussillon und die von Rustrel. Erstere sind die berühmtesten, letztere sind allerdings die größeren und, auch die imposantesten.
Die verschiedenen Teile der Ockerbrüche mit immer wieder wechselnden Farben und mit klangvollen Namen wie "Cheminées-des-Fées" oder "Sahara" verzaubern.
Nach Besichtigung dieses prachtcvollen Ortes erscheint die Welt
...farblos! Schon einmal habe ich diesen faszinierenden Ort besucht.
