Sandstone Sculptures - a photo on Flickriver

            Waterhole Canyon, Arizona

As always with these landscapes, best seen in lightbox, i.e., click on the expand arrows at upper right.

From last winter's (2024) trip to the Southwest. I'd been wanting to visit one of Arizona's famous slot canyons for ages and finally made it happen this time. It was easily one of the highlights of the trip. Hopefully, it'll be Antelope Canyon next year. These places are truly a wonder.

I hemmed-and-hawed about whether to make this color or B&W. It basically was a flip of the coin.
