Colorful Vistas of Death Valley - Zabriskie point

The undulating badlands of Zabriskie Point are illuminated by warm morning light, revealing layers of tan, brown, and blue-gray sedimentary rock formations.

December in Death Valley, and the light was raking across the eroded hills at Zabriskie Point. The layers of sediment are clearly visible, in shades of brown, tan, and blue.
