*** About Red Sandstone Formations: The red sandstones captured in this image are predominantly formed from iron oxide minerals which saturate the rock layers with rich, earthy tones. Often found in arid environments, these sedimentary rocks tell tales of past environments, notably from the Jurassic period. Such formations are prevalent in the Colorado Plateau, where erosion has unveiled layer upon layer of geological history, creating breathtaking landscapes that draw visitors from all over the world. Their resilience against erosive forces make them both a geological wonder and a symbol of time’s passage, offering insights into Earth’s prehistoric climate conditions and the life forms that once thrived there.
