After sunrise. Driving around Monument Valley we found this sight at the back side. Beautiful and quite place.
This is from my hike last weekend in Western Massachusetts, near the border with NY. The view from the top is really fantastic.
Panoramic best viewed in large.
Apparently this amazing rock formation is not a human-made monument – it’s a monument of Mother Nature. Vermillion Cliffs (Arisona, U.S.A.) at Navajo Bridge.
We had a beautiful sunrise this morning and what is even more amazing is I was up in time to capture it! This was taken on the Colorado National Monument.
