Declination Of Ages

This shot was taken out the left side open window of a Cessna as I circled the aircraft over the amazing 'Wave' area of southern Utah. I am fascinated with the story evidenced in this image, understanding that it all started as mere layers of sediment at the bottom of an ancient sea, becoming compressed over the ages, then sculpted away to reveal a natural work of masterful artistry. The wind-worn peaks and valleys of sandstone ridges are defined with another day’s sunshine - attesting to an unimaginable process of creation over years numbering in the untold millions.
