The currently few opportunities to take new pictures lead me to the picture archive again and again.
Here is another photo from the time when I wanted to photograph every stone in the southwest of the USA (southwest virus, contagious, but not dangerous ;-))
Die aktuell wenigen Möglichkeiten, neue Bilder zu machen führen mich immer wieder in das Bildarchiv.
Hier ein weiteres Foto aus der Zeit, als ich im Südwesten der USA jeden Stein fotografieren wollte (Südwest-Virus, ansteckend, aber nicht gefährlich;-))

Somewhere in the Vermilion Cliffs, southern Utah, trespassing prohibited lest they be destroyed.
Irgendwo in den Vermilion Cliffs, Süd-Utah, betreten verboten, damit sie nicht zerstört werden.
Millions of years of wind, water and sand have created these rock formations. Indirect light in the late morning conjure up a picture of the colorful sandstone with many color gradations.
Location: Top Rock Plateau, Coyote Buttes North, Vermilion Cliffs National Monument.

Sandstone picture in the finest color gradations, seen in the Siq, the over 70 meters deep canyon of 1.5 kilometers in length and at the same time access to the rock city of Petra / Jordan. It's easy to miss this motif because you are constantly waiting to see "The Treasury" at the end of the Siq. Only indirect light gets there, a tripod is recommended for a photo.
Sandstein-Bild in feinsten Farbabstufungen, gesehen im Siq, der über 70 Meter tiefen Felsschlucht von 1,5 Kilometer Länge und gleichzeitig Zugang zur Felsenstadt Petra/Jordanien. Dieses Motiv kann man leicht übersehen, weil man ständig darauf wartet, am Ende des Siq das Schatzhaus zu sehen. Dorthin gelangt nur indirektes Licht, Stativ ist für ein Foto zu empfehlen.

The search for the moving stones on the Racetrack Playa / Death Valley was not as easy as expected. There are extensive areas in the eastern part on which stones probably never moved.

by erosion exposed layers of sandstone under an overhanging rock, Petra/Wadi Musa/Jordan. The "sandstone art" is about 1 meter wide and three-dimensional, not flat. I discovered it in the near of the "High place of Sacrifice".

The landscape near the parking lot 3 on White Domes Road is undoubtedly one of the most colorful spots of the Valley of Fire. Hardly had we reached the Crazy Hill (in the picture half left), drew a heavy thunderstorm from the west. A few pictures at strange twilight at noon and then as soon as possible back to the rental car.
From there we could experience relaxed, what a thunderstorm in the South-West of the USA means ...

The "Zebra Slot Canyon" is one of the worthwhile destinations in the "Hole in the Rock Road" area near Escalante, part of the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument, best in later morning with indirect light.
At the beginning of November 2016 I was again in this canyon, but it was full of brackish, cold water, so I could not reach the photographically interesting area as in the picture.
Der "Zebra Slot Canyon" ist eines der lohnenswerten Ziele im Bereich der Hole in the Rock Road nahe Escalante, Teil des Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument.
Anfang November 2016 war ich erneut in diesem Canyon, der aber voll brackigem, kalten Wasser stand, so dass ich den fotografisch interessanten Bereich wie auf dem Bild nicht erreichen konnte.

A completely untouched rock formation made of eroded sandstone, seen on a hike in the mountains of the Sinai Peninsula/Egypt.
I ask for your understanding that I do not give the exact location, because almost everything that is visited by the masses is smeared with nonsensical stuff in a short time.
