Just Scratching the Surface

4 years 10 months ago #647600 by Jared-Weaver
The results of last night's hike on the Oolite trail in Grand View, Idaho. This is usually people's first experience with the Owyhee Uplands and the unique geology that can be found further down Mud Flat Road. This formation is the world's biggest example of Oolite sandstone and was formed millions of years ago when ancient Lake Idaho dried up, forming the Treasure Valley. This formation represents part of the ancient shore line with many petrified sand dunes to walk around on. The rock is very fragile and many honeycombs, domes and arches can be found on the cliff face as the wind scours away the weakest stone. 

C/C is always appreciated. Just keep it relevant. What you see is what you see, there's nothing I can add and nothing I care to take away, it's a sunset, my focus point was on the yellow bush in the foreground. The rest was intentionally left out of focus.

Excellent colors, did you use magenta filter on that horizon?

Nope. I actually added a light blue filter effect to the GND in Lightroom because the colors didn't look realistic. The area I was in is quite dusty due to the farm fields and cows kicking up dust, so the horizon catches a lot of color even on a more clear evening.

I think this is a successful shot. Love the colors and the focus.
