Nature's Abstract

            in explore: highest position: 120 on Wednesday, January 16, 2019

I leaned over the barrier and pointed my lens into the canyon with the river running through it one day at Yellowstone. I loved the play of textures, colours, and light that the shaft of sunlight, rock, dark water, whitecaps, and churning foam made.

The dramatic cinammon coloured splotches visible on the ryolite canyon wall are formed when iron in the ryolite is exposed to moisture and oxygen.

Ryolite is an igneous volcanic rock of silica rich composition. The mineral composition is usually quartz, sanidine, and plagioclase. Ryolite is found in about 9 areas in the U.S., including Yellostone and Crater Lake National Parks.
