Scale
Scale, noun, relative size. From Latin scala, ladder. Sometimes hard to judge in viewing and/or photographing landscapes. For example, this is a portion of the East wall of Glen Canyon, immediately downstream from the dam. The ladder at right apparently offers safe passage for a broad-shouldered man from the path with handrails at top right down to what appears to be a narrow ledge leading left to a cement block with a railing on top. Obviously functional, but completely mysterious to me. An example of Nature and Culture in close contact, neither making any concession to the other.
