This was taken in the Atacama desert in Chile. The wonderful landscape here is full of stone and sand formations such as these which have been shaped by the wind over the centuries.

Today, if you are interested, I invite you to follow me on another trip to Bolivia, the mineral and arid world of the Valley of the Moon in La Paz.
At the gates of La Paz, the Valley of the Moon is a sort of desert of rocks sculpted by the elements, with lots of fairy chimneys.
The site is well laid out with trails on which we can discover this geological curiosity.

La Vallée de la Lune
Aux portes de la Paz, la Vallée de la Lune constitue une sorte de désert de rochers sculpté par les éléments, avec plein de cheminée de fées.
Le site est bien aménagé avec des sentiers sur lesquels on peut découvrir cette curiosité géologique.

Valle de la Luna does resemble the surface of the moon. The Atacama desert is the driest place on earth and some areas haven't received rain in hundred years. The sand formations are formed by wind and water. In the distance you can see Volcano Licancabur.
We ran down these sand dunes and explored the area.

Valley of the Moon
O nome surgiu por conta da aparência que o leito do Rio São Miguel tem com o solo lunar.
O relevo é formado pelo encontro de dois Grupos geológicos Paranoá (1,3 a 1,0 Bilhões de anos) e Traíras (1,6 a 1,3 Bilhões de anos), que foram formados em ambiente sedimentar e posteriormente metamorfizados.
As rochas do Vale da Lua foram soterradas e submetidas a um aumento de pressão e temperatura (Diagênese), que as transformaram. Ocorreu precipitação de Calcita (mineral de composição CaCO3 fácil de dissolver.)
A presença da matriz com calcita facilita a dissolução das rochas que formam as “panelas”/”marmitas” que dão o aspecto “lunar”

Wadi Rum is one of the world's most beautiful deserts. More than just a sea of rolling dunes, this protected wilderness near Jordan's southern border is made unique by the dramatic sandstone and basalt mountains jutting out of its sandy floor.
Named "The Valley of the Moon" for good reason, the area's natural intrigue is endless: stunning rock formations, fascinating rock art, and a brilliant night sky combine to create a unique and worthwhile experience .
This was taken in the Valley of the Moon in the Atacama desert in Chile. Sunsets are a spectacular sight as the landscape turns every shade of gold and red before darkness finally falls

This was the same image I posted yesterday. I would like your reaction to this B&W vs. the color image. Thank you.

Mustard Growing in the Vines at B.R. Cohen Winery in the Valley of the Moon, Sonoma Wine Country, California.
El Valle de la Luna (Valley of the Moon) is located in the Atacama desert in the north of Chile. It has various stone and sand formations which have been carved by wind and water. It has an impressive range of color and texture, looking somewhat similar to the surface of the moon. El Valle de la Luna is part of Los Flamencos National Reserve.
Northeast view from The Hilltop of The Elliot Mine, Valley of The Moon, Jacumba, California. The view looks over the northeast end of the Upper desert, down to Ocotillo and the windfarms below.
The land here is located within a Stones throw of The U.S. and Mexico Border and gets even more rugged as you proceed south. I have hike beyond this area and it is a warren of gullies, washes, and giant rock piles. Even a GPS is of little use for backtracking
Hiked past Smugglers Cave, so named for its past uses. Used by native Americans, Smugglers, Bandits and even supposedly a shootout. Its located near Valley of The Moon and The San Diego/ Imperial County Border.

• Das Valle de La Luna (Valley of the Moon) ist Teil der Atacama-Wüste in Chile. Es ist weitgehendst vegetationslos durch die hohen Tages - und niedrigen Nachttemperaturen.
• The Valley of the Moon is part of the Atacama Desert in Chile.
It is largely without vegetation due to the high daytime and low nighttime temperatures.

A scene up the road from my house in Sonoma Valley. I took this image back in 2012 and felt it needed a re-edit.
• Der Sonnenuntergang in der Atacama-Wüste ist ein grandioses Schauspiel. Erst leuchten die Wüste und die Berge in den verschiedensten Rottönen und dann der Himmel. Plötzlich ist alles vorbei - die Sonne ist weg und es wird saukalt.
•The sunset in the Atacama Desert is a terrific spectacle. First the desert and the mountains glow in different reds and then the sky. Suddenly everything is over - the sun is gone and it gets freezing cold.
