Textured fractal slopes

$Textured fractal slopes$

            This is another shot from the Morning Glory Chinle site after the sun began hitting the slopes. The direct sunlight with its shadows brings out details in the texture of the Chinle formation, revealing self-similar, scale-free (i.e., fractal) erosion patterns. The tiny channels are just like the larger channels, only smaller.

This shot faces some of the topmost layers near the cliff edge. A few hardy bushes cling to soft soil at the center layer. Notice three thin white lines parallel to each other at different levels, indicating breaks in the strata or intrusions. Notice also the beginning of the distinctive blue layer at bottom. 

At bottom left, you can see the difference in color saturation between shade and sunlight. In shade, the blue dominates over the brown above it. In sunlight (center), the brown gets brighter and dominates over the blue. Compare with shade image below.
