The Painted Desert from Nizhoni Point
(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it. Clicking a second time will make it full-sized.)
Nizhoni Point was the last overlook we visited in the northern (Painted Desert) part of the Petrified Forest National Park. The colors were just as vibrant and breath-taking as they were at the first overlook.

Excellent colors, especially the blue...
I just never tire of your pics from the Painted Desert. Just beautiful! Were you using a polarizer?
Superb picture, which is full of so much life, colour and vibrancy. Looks like an amazing place to explore.
I remember seeing this many many years ago when I was a kid and my parents would take us on vacations.
God is quite an artist! : )

I have been to Thar desert. Great capture.
Oh my this is beautiful. I wonder if this white look paint are flowers or sand. But I like to guess it might be flowers. ^_^ Thanks for the visit!
I enlarged and zoomed just like Sandra!! Really an otherwordly sight!!! I almost expect a group of scouting Klingons to appear!
Certainly a trip to remember George.
Incredibly beautiful, George!
Let me see, says the painter, depending on my mood, a bit of white, a bit of pink, a bit of green. Yes, my painting will be called a bit of everything.
It look so great after zooming in.
Now that my son and family moved to Arizona, I'm taking notes here on neat places to visit. Thanks George.
All your pictures are breathtaking to me.
I wish I could paint that. So very beautiful!
wow! this is unique and vibrant in colors.
Beautiful frame with a nice depth with shades of excellent land.
The colors are amazing. The painted desert deserves its name.
That is almost too pretty for adequate words to describe it! God blesses and blesses us visually, doesn't HE?!!!
It almost looks like the surface of the moon! Great shot~
