Alladin's Castle

A photo composite of two exposures. From the photographer: “Venus shines bright in the late evening blue hour. I have so much to say and express about the badlands of NM but words will always fall short for the awe that I am in with these landscapes. Below the ground level in the canyons, these landscapes have taken marvelous shapes over time with erosion. They are nothing less than “from other planet”. You can get easily lost (quite literally if you dont have gps) in the beauty of these lands. It actually was very overwhelming to find compositions due to the abundance of them. Anywhere your neck turns you’ll find only beauty! I am still in awe.”
