eroded

Goblin Valley, Utah

the well eroded formations here are intriguing, and often suggest anthropomorphic or animal figures...in the case of this one the various strata are typical too, some of entrada sandstone, with more clay-like layers in between

It looks almost manmade, but it's nature at work here. Wonderful shot. V

fascinating shape, agree with Nora, it looks like a tank. V
Nora van Beek21-Jan-2017 14:25
Fascinating! For some reason it reminds me of an army tank with it's gun raised toward the sky. V

I'm seeing a turtle sunbathing on a rock with his head stretched out. Pretty neat! V

These formations are like Rorschach Tests of stone meets surrealistic sculpture. A fine shot David. "V"

The imagination could run wild with these wondrous shapes! I thought turtle too.

This one has a definite personality. Excellent capture David. ~BV~

That is a uniquely eroded form. It looks like a turtle balanced on top(to me)
