Description
I saw this on a dogwalk and immediately saw the relationship between it and the amazing lamdscapes that Tara has been posting.
It has formed in exactly the same way but on a miniature scale in comparison and rather more recently!!

Camels humps :o) good capture!!
Awesome capture very different.
Superb capture Andrea. God bless.
Nothing wrong with this picture Andrea.
Very cool scene Andrea wonderful dedication to Tara
Well seen and compared Andrea - if you'd have used little lego men in the pic then we wouldn't have known it was to small scale! lol
Wonderful shot Andrea. We both seem to have dedicated shots to Tara today :)
OH that is awesome, Andrea. Well seen and captured. :)
Very good.
Smaller scale, yes, but the same forces at work! Great shot!
Beautiful shot!
Yes yes! Just so. It's the same process. The grass on the top of the bank creates a "hard surface," as it were, just like harder rock sits atop softer strata. When you've got that sort of thing, it's called "differential erosion." Terrific shot!
A well eroded bank creating the silt to cover the future fossils.
Landscape forming right before your eyes.... Nice shot. Aloha
Personally - I can appreciate this natural looking erosion, it's like a still life on canvas, fine formations and image, despite what you may think, where it should belong ... ;) BB
what happened? LOL looks fab!!
From a different perspective it would be hard to tell the scale. Give it another ten million years or so. Nice shot and comparison.
Just consider it to be an amplified segment of Tara's strata! Very interesting!
I like the shot and I learned something new today - differential erosion!!!!
stark and I think beautiful, and it just shows that the grand scale is still sibling to the small scale...to an insect, this is a small mountain range. I love the bleached sun hues, and the bleached land---perfect for comparison to tara's desert and semi-desert sweeping shots. If this is in part from your postwork, you coaxed out the dryness and bright earth tones beautifully. And your pov renders these little hillocks on a level with each other: Their tops all even out with the ground level above. Also, the length of the shot works for me: I love that it's a wide shot. The presence is of in-your-face bleached, direct, hard sunlight. And parched earth, even though this is in your area, not in the American Southwest. I think it's beautiful, and a real 'transport' from your usual nature shots: You did a good job of finding a patch of land that looks like it came from an entirely different area. I have to stop now, I'll be back before I leave again. But as always it's a great pleasure Andrea. And I love your flickr gallery too. (I look there all the time!) Thanks for your always supportive comments to my work: I appreciate it greatly.
