The image depicts a black and white photograph of an indigenous dwelling, possibly from the Havasupai tribe. The structure is referred to as a wickiup, which appears constructed using natural materials such as branches for walls and thatch or grasses for roofing. Smoke can be seen billowing out from within this shelter, suggesting recent occupancy.

The setting includes barren trees scattered across an orchard-like landscape, indicating it may be either winter season or the area experiences a dry climate. In front of the wickiup is an individual who seems to be engaging in some activity near what appears to be cooking vessels on the ground, possibly preparing food over a fire.

The background features towering sandstone cliffs which rise dramatically against the sky, hinting at the rugged topography typical of certain regions known for such geological formations. The absence of modern amenities suggests this photograph may have been taken during an earlier historical period when indigenous communities lived in more primitive conditions.

Below the image is text indicating it was captured on August 30th, 1924 by Edward S. Curtis, a renowned photographer famous for his documentation and portrayal of Native American cultures through photographs and books like "The North American Indian" series published during the early twentieth century.

Beneath a deep blue desert sky with streaky white clouds we are walking down a dry ravine between two very light beige rock formations. We are descending into a landscape of narrow shallow canyons and rock formations. There are striations of color throughout: chalky white, blue gray, reddish brown. A scattering of olive green shrubs along the floor of the ravine are the only signs of life in an otherwise barren landscape.

Beneath a deep blue desert sky with streaky white clouds we are standing atop cracked pinkish violet rocks looking down several hundred feet into a landscape of narrow shallow canyons and rock formations below. There are striations of color throughout: chalky white, blue gray,  pinkish violet. A scattering of olive green shrubs are the only signs of life in an otherwise barren landscape. Beyond the colorful hills is a sprawling flat grassland. Many miles away on the horizon, a lofty mountain range with several snowcapped peaks rises above that plain.

The Çoruh River (known as Acampsis in ancient times) flows through the province of Artvin (northeastern Turkey) and then into the Black Sea in Adjara (Georgia). In recent decades, the river has been dammed in numerous places under the Erdogan government, which has negatively affected the climate and swallowed up numerous villages. At the time this photo was taken (1980), the river valley still had a special climate that allowed for the cultivation of numerous fruits and olives.
At the top right of the slope, there were still houses belonging to a village at that time.
(March 1980)

The image depicts a panoramic view of the Grand Canyon, showcasing its layered rock formations and deep valleys. The perspective is from an elevated vantage point on one side of the canyon, providing a sweeping look across its expanse. Various shades of brown, tan, and green dominate the landscape, with sparse vegetation dotting the rocky terrain. A winding river meanders through the central valley below, contrasting against the arid surroundings. The sky above is clear blue, suggesting a bright sunny day without visible clouds. This photograph captures the majestic geological features characteristic of this iconic natural landmark in America's Southwest.

The image showcases the South Rim of the Grand Canyon, a renowned natural wonder known for its layered rock formations and dramatic landscape. The vantage point appears to be from an elevated overlook or hiking trail, providing a sweeping view across deep canyons with numerous sedimentary strata exposed in their rugged layers.

In stark contrast to the grandeur of the canyon is a dead tree on the left side foreground; it's notable for its sparse branches and lack of foliage. The tree appears weathered and skeletal against the vibrant backdrop, perhaps indicating environmental stress or arid conditions prevalent at this location.

The color palette in the photograph has rich earth tones that highlight the reddish-orange hues typical of Grand Canyon sandstone layers under sunlight. Shadows cast by the rock formations create a dynamic play of light and shadow on their surfaces, adding depth to the scene.

Overall, it's an evocative image capturing both the majesty of one of Earth’s natural treasures as well as a poignant symbol of life amidst such awe-inspiring geology.

The image displays a stunning view of the Grand Canyon's South Rim, characterized by layered rock formations in various shades of red and brown. A solitary pine tree stands out prominently on the left side of the frame, its branches extending upwards with green needles against the clear blue sky. The terrain is rugged and barren, with sparse vegetation consisting mostly of desert shrubs typical to this arid region. The photograph captures a vast expanse of geological formations that illustrate millions of years' worth of sedimentary processes at work. There's an absence of human presence or artificial structures in sight, emphasizing the natural grandeur and untouched beauty of this national park landmark.

From 2022...Bryce Canyon National Park when we went to Vegas with two other couples to renew our wedding vows. Fun time but this place was a highlight, for me.

Alone pine tree clining to the endge of a deep canyon in Zion National Park. The background is the spires and towers of red and white layers of the canyon.
