red elephants come out when the moon is up

Valley of Fire State Park, Nevada view map

There is a elephant rock in Valley-of-fire state park, but this isn't it. It was dark by the time I got to that part of the park. This was the last image I took that day, the last rays of the sun were shining on this rock formation with a very elephant like shape, the light was changing rapidly. To be honest, the moon was at the very top of the image and I moved it down to a more aesthetically pleasing location.

Excellent image. The colours contrast well and the moon is a great addition. V.
