Description
Original Fine Art Photography by Donna Kennedy...
Driving into Sedona on historic 89-A I had to find a place to pull over to capture this mixed bag of weather. A little bit of virga, sun and a rainbow. It wasn't long and the weather did clear up for a few hours, Sedona, Arizona.
Minimal editing..
In the prehistoric era, the entire Sedona area was covered by a sea of water and the red rock buttes we see today were once sandbars and islands protruding up from bottom of the sea. Over millions of years, the sea receded and layered sediment from volcanic activity was formed. Wind and water erosion created these astoundingly beautiful natural sculptured wonders that are composed of basalt,sandstone and limestone. Ferrous oxide was blended with the sandstone which gives the red rocks their distinctive and brilliant crimson red color.
