You have brought together a fine collection. All of the images are great geologic views, but most are really good photographs, as well.
The latest, FULL MOON RISING, is one of the best. But 3 others stand out because of the combination of composition and lighting: WEAVER'S NEEDLE, CINDER CONE NEXT DOOR & DUST CLOUD......WATCHMAN TRAIL.
