Fertile rock.., a photo from Arizona, West

Photographer's Note

I took this picture while hiking down to the Colorado river in the Grand Canyon.. it was so hot there! all the rocks were orange like this one.. and the air was so dry and hot..just like on the desert.. it took me 4 hours to get down to the river and maybe 6 hours to climb up.. it was very backbreaking to hike down and up in that -for me- abnormal heat, but very good experience..

Hi Veronika,
Gorgeous composition with good colors and contrast. I like the perspective, the graphism and the contrast between this strong colors.
Very well viewed and done.
All the best to you,
Aires

Hot shot, warm colors, simplicity of nature that can grow everywhere, even in places like that, your note explain us a lot and let us understand how difficult and hot it was tohave this shot in your cam .... It's lovely done and i love it :))

Very nice colours and an interesting motif, like an overgrown fallos.
