A large, rounded boulder sits atop a hoodoo at right center, on the same mudstone hillock as a sail-like structure behind it. At center left is another hoodoo shaped like a flattened flower. The sky above is streaked with wispy clouds.
Here's a transitional #scape for all my fellow #badlands lovers in #bluesky land - Valley of Dreams, NW New Mexico

Against an azure blue sky, a mountain peak rises to a point. But the mountain appears to be composed of mudstone, which can be seen to show signs of eroding away. Dotted on the surface are rocks and boulders of a harder consistency, indicating a complex depositional environment. A few scattered juniper trees appear along the centerline of the image.

Deeply eroded mudstone mounds with striking coloration varying from ochre to pale yellow dominate this image, with the central mound rising up to a reddish peak at top of frame. The sky is a deep, faultless blue.

A diverse collection of landforms is visible in this single view, with the central rock formation having a sphinx-like shape. At left are several towering flowstone features, while the pinnacles at right have caprocks of stratified deposition. Here, sandstone takes many forms.

A huge flow of flowstone spreads out across the left side of the image, sloping down from the top of a hill to the flats below. To the right a scrub pine grows, partly obscuring a rocky outcrop. The sky above is deep blue with wispy clouds.

An intimate look at a rock face, showing layers of sediments stacked and crossing each other, with dished-out gaps and crevices here and there. Below the rock face are soft sediments and mudstone forming flow-like structures.
